My mandible and maxilla are recessed. My teeth are small and crooked. My mouth is small and I only see like 6 teeth smiling. I’ve had braces for a while and just got bands, he told me wear them every day all day and when you sleep. I said will these recess my upper jaw? And he said slightly, but it will bring your lower forward. JFL I’m not about to recess my recessed maxilla further. I asked about surgery to push my lower jaw forward, he said we do surgery but only in extreme cases, we wouldn’t do it for you. I asked about a palate expander and he said that’s only for kids. I asked about mewing and he said it’s useless. JFL. Should I go to a functional orthodontist?
