marpe/braces

[jester]

i have a 8 teeth smile and a positive orbital vector so i don’t think my maxilla is recessed or narrow but when i sleep my nose gets clogged and i have to mouth breathe, idk if it’s poor air flow cause i keep my windows and my door closed (one time i tried sleeping with open windows and i didn’t mouth breathe) or if it’s a orthodontic problem, i was also planning on getting braces for better teeth alignment so idk if i should propose a mse alongside that
anyway, does anyone know what the cause could be?

it probably is narrow, your pallate that is. You might also have a flat maxilla, not recessed. Ask your dentist. braces often work with a pallate expander or mse
