Ortho Camouflage Victim💀

[nandez]

Severe overbite, extractions, and constant jutting. HELP

I’ve been frauding by jutting my jaw 24/7. I finally took an unfrauded side profile showing my natural bite, and it’s so bad. My lower jaw is severely recessed (retrognathia / Class II malocclusion).

To "fix" my massive overbite, my ortho extracted two upper premolars. They are currently using braces to drag my maxilla back to meet my recessed lower jaw. It is actively flattening my midface, killing my under-eye support, and ruining my lip projection. They are ruining my top half to match my deficient bottom half.

II know jaw surgery (BSSO/bimax) is the actual cure for retrognathia, but I am strictly looking for softmaxxing/ortho pivots. NO SURGERY right now.

Is it too late to tell my ortho to stop the retraction? If I stop it, I’ll be left with a massive overjet. Is there any non-surgical appliance to bring the lower jaw forward instead of pulling the top back?

I jut constantly to not look sub5. Is Mewing even physically possible or effective when your lower jaw sits an inch behind your upper maxilla? Is constant jutting going to destroy my jaw joints (TMJ)?

So should I keep going with the treatment and fix my bite or stop and be left with an overjet (jutting)? Any other options?

There is no cure other than surgery, the problem is skeletal but you did not show photo so cant assume. If you cant do surgery, whatever ortho says is the only thing you can do. If you are above 16 myofacial appliance wont work

you were already recessed
theres no saving that jfl

additionally rubber bands do not recess you as much. They bring the mandible more forward than maxilla back. Anything ur feeling is literally the wildest nocebo effect ever
