One side of maxilla is more developed than the other

[akach]

How can I fix this? Its causing asymmetry in my face (slight but noticeable). Is there a way of also fixing my recessed maxilla while im at it? Two birds with one stone. I live in Canada so maybe smth is covered by ohip if I lie abt it affected sleep or breathing?

I slept upside down to fix this asymmetry, it also maintains ideal blood flow to the face giving a nice flushed look.

So im guessing there's no way to fix it?

You could get braces but it's not covered by OHIP fully yet but I don't know if that is how you want to fix your recessed maxilla.

Isnt there a type of expander for this?

Maybe you have lateral pelvic tilt

Or some other assymetry, like uneven shoulders

At least now u know mewing works, because if it didnt then it wouldn't be able to cause assymetry

Atleast , is there any ortho way to fix it though? Im pushing 17 and dont know if mewing will work enough to fix it. Maybe if I get a generic myobrace?
