How could you control for how much this predisposition is influenced by parents propagating bad habits they once had?Predisposition to it is (research supports that) which is like all that matters
Even the rate at which your alveolar bone remodels is influenced by genetics (in other words how much you'd be affected by recession)
obviously the way in which your bone grows is heavily influenced and capped by genetics, but I think it’s fair to say that there is a version of almost anyone that ends up with at least decent development.
and yes, ofc there is such a thing as genetic resilience. All in all, I’m not trying to deny the genetics pill, some people’s facial structure would end up average even if they had perfect development. But malocclusion specifically, and the need for jaw surgery, could be greatly reduced population wide.
Also, as a sidenote: I see too many people lumping every single good genetic/physical and even mental trait in a bag and saying chad is ‘that’. When in reality, even if good things do often come in packages, finding someone who is hyper attractive; smart; physically capable (dexterity); insanely healthy/resilient and mentally stable, is like finding a needle in a haystack.
