It sounds like you're asking for tips on fixing your flat maxilla (the upper jaw), especially considering you're wearing braces. If you're dealing with issues like a flat or recessed maxilla, here are a few things to consider:
- Braces Adjustments: Since you’re wearing braces, your orthodontist might have specific plans for adjusting your bite and jaw position. Sometimes, certain types of braces, like expanders, can help widen the maxilla. You should check in with your orthodontist to see if this is a possibility for you.
- Functional Appliances: If your maxilla is flat and affecting your bite, your orthodontist might recommend a functional appliance like a Herbst appliance or palatal expander. These devices can help reposition the jaw and open up the bite.
- Facial Exercises: Some people find that doing specific facial exercises can help with overall facial symmetry and jaw development, although these are more supplementary and should be discussed with your orthodontist.
- Good Posture: Keeping your posture in check, with your head slightly forward and chin up, can sometimes make a noticeable difference in how your jaw and maxilla appear, especially while you’re still growing.
- Nutrition & Growth: Make sure you’re eating a balanced diet rich in vitamins and minerals. Strong bones are essential for healthy jaw development, so staying on top of your nutrition can help with the natural growth of your maxilla.
- Consult Your Orthodontist: As you’re wearing braces, it's always best to have a direct conversation with your orthodontist about your concerns. They can give you a more personalized plan, considering your age, growth patterns, and treatment goals.
