so I have an overbite and I want to fix it with elastics, since now I thought and I still think and i'm like 90% sure about that I need to get my lower jaw forward in order to look better and i'm gonna tell the dentist that i want to get the lower jaw lower forward by like 90% and the upper part as little as possible. so there's a video and pictures of me while I fully bring the lower part symmetrical with the upper part and I find it perfect the way my jaw looks this way, I have to mention that I feel no discomfort at all doing this by myself (bringing the lower part symmetrical with the upper part) and i'm pretty sure that I can do this with elastics as well, I even asked chatgpt and he said the things that i'm saying rn but now comes the reason why i've made this thread: Could i end up being recessed? I myself find it perfect looking(my front its too wide and if i will lower my jaw it's gonna be perfect) but I've read the reply of this guy on this thread: https://looksmax.org/threads/different-elastics.1508340/
*pretty sure class 2 elastics push upper jaw backwards and lower jaw forwards (recesses u) while class 3 elastics push lower jaw backwards and upper jaw forwards (gives u a bit of forward growth*
I think that reply it's an subjective one, not applying to everyone but I just want to make sure, what do you guys think?
FOR THE ONES WHO ARE NOT READING ALLAT:
I HAVE AN OVERBITE AND I WANT TO BRING MY JAW FORWARD BY 90% AS YOU CAN SEE IN THE PICTURES/VIDEO. WHAT DO YOU THINK, COULD I END UP RECESSED? I MYSELF FIND IT PERFECT LOOKING BUT A REPLY FROM ANOTHER THREAD SCARED ME TO DEATH
*the picture in the green shirt its my jawline rn with an overbite, without forcing the lower part to the upper part and i've inserted a picture of my front too*
