he is trying to give me class 2 elastics but im not wearing that shit it causes recession 
How old are you and it doesn’t cause recessionhe declined my palate expander even after I lied about sleep apnea/issues breathing
should i try my luck again and ask for a herbst appliance
class 2 elastics are design to pull upper teeth back and they promote CW clockwise jaw rotation (downwards and back)
hopefully. i wore a herbst appliance for 2 years in middle school, and it saved my life.he declined my palate expander even after I lied about sleep apnea/issues breathing

Yeah it pulls the teeth back which can camouflage recession in some cases but not cause it
Most likely bad news man
what should i say to get it please help i want it so bad
It does recess you as your growth happens vertically rather than horizontally
i was abt to say i wear them so my lower teeth can move forward and my mandible hasn't shifted
Its case by case, depending on whether the elastics lock in the mandible
what ab ones that move lower teeth forward
What do you mean?
No depending on the person and if it’s a skeletal or dental imbalance
i'm not 100% sure but I believe this would be the herbst appliance

Herbst is ccw , cls2 elastics cw. Herbst is more costly, tell your ortho you would have trouble with hooking your elastics and that you forget and that you can’t comply that good with putting elastics . And that you’re not really a compelling patient this should work
Because it costs more , more time consuming , they don’t really care that much about their patients they just want easy money in short time .
i got it put in a month and a couple days after i turned 14 and got it removed 2 weeks after i turned 15
And did it receed your dental arch or create any problems , it’s top 5 appliance for sure and promotes ccw
nope i didn’t experience any problems with it, and yes def did promote ccw id recommend herpts over like the bands for braces
You said you were 14 ,did you still notice forward growth in the maxilla or did it stop at 14 . You should of still grew a few mms of forward growth in harmony with the mandible
idrk i think i did but i lowk think it was 80% puberty for the forward growth but the jaw and ccw was def half herpts
That’s good then good job
thank you
idk not even a bad idea
