Would bioblock give forward growth?

[Tyl3r4]

i recently just got a bio block and i’m going to get an expander for my lower palate too. when i asked for a foward head gear, the dentist said that my current setup would most likely cause my jaws to become unstuck and naturally come forward.

is that correct or should i ask for a forward head gear

i asked chat gpt for u because you're prolly too stupid to do it yourself, so here it is :
Your dentist is likely correct if:

• your issue is mostly constriction + posture
• your growth potential is still good
• your maxilla isn’t severely retruded

You should ask again (or ask for clarification) if:

• you have a clear skeletal discrepancy on X-rays (ceph)
• facial profile is significantly concave
• you want to maximize forward growth while growth is still active

A very reasonable question to ask is:

“Based on my ceph analysis, is my maxilla actually retruded, or just constrained by narrow arches?”
