In all of the pictures I have my jaw tightly clenched just to show my masseters better and I don't do it at all besides from just now.

In the pink shirt I am jutting, because I permajutt but don't apply any force to my jaw while doing so.

In the blue shirt I am clenching my jaw without a jutt.

So should I start chewing hard gum and enlarge my masseters or is it better that I don't do it at all?

Help a brother out, thank you!

I have an overbite, but I am getting braces soon. Should I wait until my braces are on to start training my masseters or not train them at all?
if you're getting braces already, they're either going to recess your maxilla, or project your mandible to fix that overbite, probably the second option so i'd say don't start hard chewing at all, the braces treatment will give you forward growth. i'm getting a similar treatment, and getting my braces on today actually.
just determine whether you have high or low set massesters and, if low chew, if high, dont. Also you need chin filler and rhino bro

I know I should get a rhino, I also plan on getting fat grafting for my infras, though I've NEVER been told I have a recessed chin.

And I can't tell if I have high or low that's what I'm trying to ask on here
 
you're going to develop a temporomandibular joint disorder

low and high set masseters doesn’t exist, they seem high if you have a short ramus, inward gonions, or an overbite

My teeth are so fucked to the point where they have cut my tongue 🥰

I also have a narrow pallet and plan on getting a marpe or something similar after the braces.

It's most likely going to project my mandible due to my front teeth cutting my tongue and the dentist is aware of this.

Oh alright, so hopefully I shouldn't need to do much after getting the braces and marpe, thanks bro
(Probably going to mark this as solution if there isn't a better answer by morning)
And hell yeah good for you bhai :PepoHappy:

I have a tall ramus, outward gonions, and a good bite, but when I used to chew on my masseters it looked bad. Thoughts?
