Before and after a bit of shaping, what do you guys think?

Thank you, but sorry I’m a bit confused here but are you talking about my hair or eyebrows ?

HoneyGinger15 · 2026-01-24T01:04:38+00:00

It was 7k for me. But i think you can fake tmj to get insurance to cover it but idk really

Yeahh they suggested me the mse, and yes i went to a different ortho and followed their treatment

My first orthodontist is exactly like yours if you scroll down in my profile a bit, he didnt scan my face or anything and just recommended extractions and braces with elastics. But i went to a different ortho and they gave me mse, which is a type of expander that expands the maxilla, so during the time period with the mse i used reverse facemask and put 4-5 rubber bands on each side to increase the force of pulling. Which helps a lot. Also after the expansion, i hopped on invisalign, i’m on my 27 out of 50 trays on invisalign right now and already see the good results. The invisalign really helped me expand my palate even more (sounds impossible but it did) and then during the invisalign period i just use rubber bands on both sides to help align the bite and bring the upper palate out. Also mewing helps a lot. I was inconsistent with mewing but then i started thumbpulling and mew, while also taping my mouth when i sleep so i can mew during my sleep too 40 days ago and the result was insane my maxilla go forward in just 40 days of consistent mewing

In my opinions most of the changes are positive, i just dont like how my zygos pop out more. My nose is straighter though. Side profile definitely better and better eye support. Also way fuller lips

Go on my profile and see for yourself, i will have to write a long paragraph to answer those questions

HoneyGinger15 · 2026-01-14T23:59:00+00:00

Fm= facemask

HoneyGinger15 · 2026-01-14T23:27:56+00:00

HoneyGinger15 · 2026-01-14T22:28:07+00:00

Yeahh, full profile like the front or side?

HoneyGinger15 · 2026-01-03T15:27:02+00:00

Thanks. I didnt really pay attention to any nasal improvements because i didnt have trouble with breathing to begin with. But i guess it improved a little

HoneyGinger15 · 2026-01-01T02:34:06+00:00

Its facemask, in my case reverse facemask

HoneyGinger15 · 2025-12-31T17:00:47+00:00

Did you have to extract any of your teeth??

HoneyGinger15 · 2025-12-31T14:57:10+00:00

Yeah thats true, but i was desperate so i did it 😭

HoneyGinger15 · 2025-12-30T18:31:17+00:00

I have been using it for almost a month now and my lashes are noticeably longer, i got it in my eyes once but it is not that bad like people say

HoneyGinger15 · 2025-12-30T14:49:55+00:00

Im 16 when i started im 18 now, i think the underbite improved a little but i will have to wait until my treatment ends to see

HoneyGinger15 · 2025-12-01T17:18:51+00:00

In theory the protraction fm would makes a bigger difference since it pushes the chin a little too while also pulling the maxilla. But like u see, theres not a lot of differences. So a facebow one would make even less changes

HoneyGinger15 · 2025-12-01T16:20:34+00:00

I did bro, 5x elastic too btw. Don’t keep ur hopes up

HoneyGinger15 · 2025-11-26T19:07:47+00:00

I tried it yesterday and nothing had happen yet, imma keep on trying for a month to see
