So today I went to the orthodontist for my monthly check up and she placed some shit in my mouth that should get rid of my overbite.
I started wearing braces like 10m ago and elastics 1 month ago and she told me my bite got better and I didn't need those elastics anymore.
I asked her what that bs is that she placed in my mouth and she told me it's to get my upper jaw pushed back instead of pulling my lower jaw forward. I didn't want to ask her too many questions cuz my dad was with me but I'm scared it will recess my maxilla and that bs is permanent too so I can't just take it off like the elastics.
Anyone high Iq on this topic that could help me out with what it is and if it will recess my maxilla?
Thanks in advance
