I don't have sufficient money for invasilgn can braces be ok..
@@santoshkasi9499 yes they can! There are obviously benefits to both but if there is too large of a price difference we would certainly recommend that you get braces instead!

Let me know my gab from removing my premolats will come again if i dont take retainer
@@abdijabarhassanabdulahi6365 yes you need to wear a retainer.
I honestly can't believe how I had no idea abt mouth breathing, hard foods, and tongue posture's importance til recently. It's a shame how it isn't more common knowledge.
I think more and more people are starting to realize this problem! I just realized this too!
Me too😔
We are glad to hear that we've been able to teach you something about your oral health! We made this video because we really thought that the information needed to get to as many people as possible. Thanks for watching.
Finally a guy who actually answers the question clearly 👏👏
thank you so much! we really appreciate it. we are glad we could help.
I'm trying to get braces because people used to laugh at my face, especially my close friends, right now i don't even have any friends, cos i never leave my house anymore and stop talking to them. It hurts so much more than someone could think. Sadly I even get so happy sometimes because of this quorantine and covid for some reasons.. i'm sorry 😔
Can relate. I finally have my braces in my 40s but I'm glad for wearing masks at this time even more
@@msbrt8638 thank you, I got my braces last saturday on my upper teeth, today i'll be getting on my lower teeth. Hoping to get the best result possible 🙂
@@user-hejwihfwwjdfk that's fantastic really happy for you!
@@msbrt8638 thank you very much

I have a very asymmetrical face, and my dental arch is also very asymmetrical, this is why I think braces would help in this situation... I hope I will be able to get braces soon to fix this problem.
Thanks for watching. We wish you luck. Braces are effective at moving teeth, but not very effective in changing the jaw structure. For a jaw structure asymmetry it’s important to address any Myofuntional issues that contributed to the problem. A Myofuntional therapist can help you for that. Depending on the severity, hopefully it will improve over time. Otherwise surgery may be required for some cases.
Mmmm
@@Aravindgvm really? How did your lower jaw look like before because my right side is a bit lower than the left and my chin is a bit going on the right side too and I hope that braces will fix that because I don't want to get surgery..
@@DentalNowPanorama so are you saying braces wont fix an overbite because i thought they did? i mean isnt fixing an overbite by moving the lower jaw forward since the top jaw is more advance?
Thesame
Thank you. No one has given a direct answer
You're certainly welcome! We are glad we could give you an answer for the question. If you have any other questions, please don't hesitate to reach out! ☺️
Yes it will. I'm looking into veneers to get my old smile back
I also now have to get lip fillers
They took out a 2 teeth from the top and bottom. Now I want them back .
Ppl have asked me if I had chin surgery. . It looks so long now . My lips are gone . I hate my perfect smile I hate it . I wish I had my over bite and full lips and small chin back .
I made the same mistake wish I never even think about getting bracelets I'm so so sad I hate it
@@msvenegas2840 really?😥
@@msvenegas2840 why??
I don’t know about face symmetry but braces did changed my life. I had ugly sets of teeth and I wanted to change them. Never had confidence because of my teeth’s, so got braces, extracted 4 teeth’s, got 2 temporary implant and lastly one permanent implant. Braces lasted for 3 years, suffered through lot of pain. I wasn’t able to eat properly. But now I think it is worth it. I can smile freely without any worries and I am gonna continuing smiling no matter how much ruined I am, no matter what bad I do or bad happening in my life because I had painfull braces for three damm years.
So do you think braces affected your face/jawline or not? I had 4 teeth extracted too and now I am 2 years in this and this summer I think I will get them off. But I am very worried since I saw some people saying that braces ruines your face or jawline.....
@@stickyschannel8497 yes I'm very scared that extractions will ruin my face
@@saoirsescanlon7698 the extractions and braces did not ruin my jawline or face (atleast this is what I think and know for the moment) but I will look at before and after pictures when I will take off my braces which will be aproximatively this summer. I saw some people discussing about that getting the wisdom teeth extracted ruined their jawline or face. I didn't get extracted those teeth because they did not even came out yet. Now I'm hoping that everything goes well and all the effort and pain I went through this time with my braces will pay off.
@@saoirsescanlon7698 in what way could your jawline be ruined? Could you please explain cause this issue isn't usually discussed in UA-cam videos about braces.
@@stickyschannel8497 I had 1 of my close to front teeth taken out for braces and then I mewed with braces on for 6-9 months in Australian isolation. I was 10kg heavier at the time so I thought I couldn’t see the results but it was actually just because I was carrying more fat. When I lost all the weight my jaw was too full on. All my wisdom teeth came down/up and thanks to the mewing I thought I’d made enough room and would get to now keep them. My dentist initially said they would all need to come out (before pandemic.) Then another dentist I had later , said they were fine and only one might be of concern but otherwise yes I could now keep them.
One thing to note though is that I mewed at 23 , my facial development already in place pretty much. So with my new mewed jaw I did start to feel I noticed “pressure” from my teeth that come down/up now reinforcing the mewing I’d done and holding in it’s new place. Like my jaw wasn’t or couldn’t fully relax. This is just what I noticed way later on (few months back.)
I wish I had this information when I was 15 ... now I'm 25 and my face is misaligned
Our intention is to be able to reach as many people as possible! We are glad we were able to educate you now. You should consider talking to a few other orthodontists locally so that you can get a better opinion on whether or not theres any options to help!

In my case, even without extraction, my face kinda changed, not major, but i've noticed that my lower face became more defined, i love how my cheekbones are more tucked and my jaw became like wider. Love it!
What did your braces did to you? you find the help for only a straightening teeth, or did they make some jaw work?
did you notice any smile lines
@@blahblah7050 I have them even before braces so can't really tell you if they cause smile lines or not 🥲

Very good explanation. Don't neglect chewing and nasal breathing!
I have been a mouth breather my whole life and only recently found out about tongue posture and it’s effect on facial development. I wish I knew about this earlier, I’m 18 now.

I wish it can improve my smile. I have an over bite and I hate how I smile. I hate it so much that now I’m here looking if it changes my face or anything like that. I rarely smile cause It looks so ugly and everytime i see some other person with a good smile, I’m just there like “I wish that was mine”
thxx. getting braces thiss month so excited!!!!!!!!
Good luck!! You can do it. Let us know how you like your new smile in a few months :)
I noticed though that most people I met if not all who had braces do not have a very visible jawline and they often have double chin even though they are skinny. For example, my friend who didn’t have braces, has a noticeable jawline, almost boxy. His sister who had braces, has a very small jawline and has double chin even though she is skinny. Of course gender and genetics play their roles, but how the braces changed her face is really obvious since both their parents have strong and defined jawline like their son.
Based on what I read from researches and observation too, people with diet of mostly soft food will usually have problem with teeth crowding because less effort on chewing makes the jawline smaller making braces necessary which then will further narrow the jawline. In contrast, people with less access on soft food like pressure cooked meat, will usually have wider jaw and not have issues with teeth crowding.
Hlo sir, my two lower molars were extracted and i also had braces...,,,, So can i do mewing
Hi there!
I'm scheduled to get braces in about a month. I am 15 years old and I have 4 gaps in my top teeth (1 in the middle of my front two teeth, and 1 on either side of them), and no gaps in my bottom. My teeth are also pretty straight and I have no crowding what so ever. The orthodontist told me that to close the gaps, she would need to pull my teeth back. However, I do not have an overbite or any other bite than a normal one, so I would have to get a bottom row of braces with rubber bands. My biggest questions are: Is the orthodontist correct? Will there be any changes in my face? and, Will my mouth still function the same (like, will my mouth still be closed when it rests? Will I have to force it to shut?)?
Thank you!
Good morning, I have been using the appliance for 4 months, I have a prominent jaw and 32 teeth in the dental artery. I am currently using braces to close the gaps in my lower incisor teeth, and I am afraid that this may cause a recession in my jaw. I also have class 1 but the dentist said I have to use rubber bands to pull my teeth back. I will not do that. And I also think that it is only possible to use elastic bands when making extractions, since I have all my teeth. What do you think?
To prevent unwanted facial changes avoid extraction and retraction. If you have metal mechanically dragging your teeth and alveolar bone back to close spaces then it will change far more drastically than diet and habit within that same time frame.
Not all orthodontist cause facial damage but many are not even aware that's what they're doing. I had mine done at 13 without knowing the risks, I did not give informed consent, the damage has been life altering.
what kind of damage ?
@@rune4563hi did u get braces? if so would u mind giving an update?
I use to have braces in middle school then my dog ate my retainer and I never got them replaced my teeth shifted and everything and it’s made me so insecure and not to mention my left side of my jaw is not even with my right and my lips literally look crooked I’m not sure if it has anything to do with my teeth not in it’s right position but it really does upset me
omg same would braces help that i’m getting them soon
Same. My braces broke and i havent been able to replace them due to money. Its been 2 years now and my teeth have moved pass a rewuirement of retainers. I probably need invisalign or braces again now. The anoying part is that my teeth moved forward at an angle so it gets in the way when i close my mouth. It doesnt feel natural to close my miuth now cuz i can feel my top teeth.
Why wasn't tongue tie mentioned? A tongue tie will prevent the tongue resting against the hard palate, it can cause tongue thrust swallowing, and it can exacerbate mouth breathing.
These things don't fix themselves.
You're so right! Tongue ties actually play a huge role when it comes to facial structure. There can be a lot of underlying reasons for crooked teeth and this was supposed to just be a brief introduction. Ultimately you should still see a dentist because they will give you a much more individualized solution than any youtube video can.
We actually made another video that discusses some exercises you can do to work on some of the underlying causes of crooked teeth. We mentioned tongue-tie in these videos.
If you have any other questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out! We'd be more than happy to help. 😀

I'm 40. Soon I will get my teeth issues addressed. I have a wisdom tooth on my upper right side which is protruding substantially. It sometimes causes me pain and it could be responsible for having caused two nearby teeth to move slightly. Both the wisdom tooth and the two errant teeth have been there for around five years now. I also have some crowding on my lower jaw which I am prepared to have corrected with braces even though such procedures can take a few years to complete. Lastly, teeth whitening could be something I look into if needed.
I'm going to get braces in one week, hopefully they will help my temporomandibular joint pain while correcting my asimmetry
We are glad to hear you decided to go through with treatment. As you're well aware, each case is different so it's highly recommend that people visit multiple dentists before proceeding with any treatment.
Come back and let us know how your results come along!
So.. How did it go?
@@kokuyoedit8538 It is going fairly well! My orthodontist says my upper teeth are already getting better and aligning (they tend to be inward and for this reason I have braces only on upper teeth, in a few weeks he will put them also in lower teeth) even though for asimmetry and temporomandibular pain it will be required much more time but I am positive, eventually I will update more here if you are interested :)
Not feeling any pain
And by the way I'm 25 :)
@@IRONMAIDEN146 my upper teeths are so excessive,is braces really help to get a better smile??? For this my lower lip is quit puffy,n i hate this😞
@@IRONMAIDEN146 how is it going now?
I got my braces few months ago and currently I seriously don't like my face changes.. I'm literally so sad with it I'm getting depressed.. I need my old looks back.. I wish I wouldn't have gotten braces..
You should mention this to your dentist that's doing the orthodontics. You should just make sure that he's aware about the fact that you're not happy with your current smile because it's really hard to help you without seeing you in person or without being one of our patients so that we can actually make these adjustments. Hopefully you can have an open discussion with your orthodontist about your condition! Thanks for watching our videos we really appreciate it
My face looks fatter now because of braces and I hated it so bad
@@zoremi1247 LMAOOO stawwwp -
My face change.. all my cheeks r inside now... My face is so thin now.. I don't like my face now
@@gunjansharma1318 I'm also facing this
I heard and seen multiple examples of braces and elastics specifically to fix and overbite underbite etc it will pull back your jaw and make you look bad. You will have a recessed Chin and all of that. Is this true?
Can having an openbite, overjet and a side profile like biximillary protrusion cause an upturn nose? Will the nose more likely to look normal after the protrusion is corrected?
Anyone here that had their crossbite corrected? I have one toward the back of the mouth and can't decide if its worth correcting. My dentist has told me it depends on whether I can live with the incessant cheekbite or not (which doesn't at all help me decide if removing 2-4 teeth is worth it???). Would wanna understand how it affects your face to be better informed.
I have only have the top braces right now but I’m getting the bottom ones in 2 weeks! I also have a top overbite so I really hope that having braces will help fix it since it’s one of my biggest insecurities! My overbite makes my side profile look strange in my opinion because my upper lip is more out.. 😔
same here mate. It really affects my overall face and my confidence. It's been 6 months since you commented, how's the process going?
@@Jamess0090 It’s been doing great! I now have both top and bottom and I’ve definitely seen improvement on my overbite. Now when I look at my side part, my overbite is almost nonexistent and I’m glad!
@@jawin_ were you told to get an extraction ?
Same. For now i only have my upper teeth in braces and I'm scheduled next week for the lower teeth. I don't like my side profile because my mouth is protruded. It is my biggest insecurity. I'm already 30 years old but it's never too late to get braces. Slowly building my smile confidence.
@@jawin_hello any updates?
Hello sir, i am 24 I used to have 4 incisor bottom teeth but one of the incisors grown little behind the other incisors and that one got pulled out by my dentist for my braces treatment, it is normal?
From what I heard everyone should have 4 bottom and 4 upper incisors.
Also now I am worried because I also have inward slanted molars. Will this cause misalignment.
Hello,
I got some pretty messed up teeth with a missing back molar. Not only do i feel ugly but i feel like its contributed alot to my whole face to always appear mad even when i dont mean to. Its really frustrating. 😪 also i got brain fog and lazy eye not sure if those are related to the teeth problem but i feel like it is because i used to have sharper, quicker thinking and my vision didnt ever feel like unfocused. Can you confirm whether or not these are related to the teeth problem? The mad face, the lazy eye and the brain fog? If you dont know thats ok.
I always been told when i was a kid i didnt need braces so i never even thought of getting braces even though i had a feeling something was wrong with my teeth in my teen years thru adulthood i just went with it and it fucked up me up thru all these years i kept thinking it was normal for my teeth to be this way. So im wondering, if it took me this long to actually get braces, is it already at a point where my teeth cant get any worse? Because i remember hearing from somewhere about if you wait too long to get braces youll get tooth decay and all this other stuff. I always looked at the price of braces and thought its too much so im just not gonna get it. But im just gonna save up for it now its just causing me too much stress and worry.
If you made it to the end of this long paragraph i appreciate you taking the time to read it and hopefully you can reply and give me sone thorough feedback thank you much appreciated
I hope braces can fix my asymmetry of my jaws because surgery is scary and dangerous.
Same Dr. Mew vibe
We really believe in some of his philosophy! Although his practises are fantastic, we still recommend doing combinations with traditional orthodontic methods to ensure that things are adjusted properly and that you're on the right track. We actually always recommend working on patients negative habits as well as getting orthodontic treatment so that they can get the most out of their smile.
If you have any questions about your oral health, please let us know! We would be more than happy to help you any way we can!
I have seen so many people who wore braces end up with unattractive smile, and sunken face.
Does this also applies to transparent teeth retainers?
I had invisalign treatment as an adult for overbite and overcrowded lower teeth, but the result were sunken cheeks, weak jawline, narrow smile the list is endless.
I am hoping and researching to reverse the treatment.
If you can give me any advice I will appreciate it.
Hello, hopefully we can answer your question! Dr. Dhillon has personally treated over 2000 invisalign cases and he's only had one patient out of 2000 that has mentioned that she had sunk in cheeks, it was actually a lady that was pregnant. So it was really hard to say if there were any other factors involved. The other side of it is that Dr. Dhillon was wondering if there were any teeth extractions completed when you first started Invisalign? Here at our office we actually have a no extraction policy for orthodontics because we believe that we should focus on expanding the arch and improving tonge space and therefore airway. Dr. Dhillon says that he has unfortunately worked on quite a few patients who have previously had orthodontic treatment done with multiple extractions and they were unhappy with the width of their smile and or had airway problems. The only solution was treatment where we expanded the arch which created space that could be managed by either making certain teeth wider with cosmetic bonding or even making room for dental implants that are able to replace the teeth which are able to be removed.
This is the number one reason that we suggest visiting multiple dentists when you get an orthodontic consultation because there are many ways to straighten your teeth and not a lot of dentists focus on expanding arches to improve tongue space and the airway as well as correcting myofunctional problems.
Hopefully we've been able to help guide you in the right direction! If you have any other questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to ask us. We would be more than happy to help. We would also really appreciate it if you could subscribe to our channel. It would mean a lot to us!

@@davidjohn184 how much it cost in india
Sir Is it the braces that affect the Jaw, or is it the extraction of the Molars that is the cause ? Actually right now I have a sharp Jawline and I am into modelling. I have done (& do) shoots for various clothing brands. So I don't want my Jawline to get affected at any condition. My 4 of the lower teeth are crooked, and I have gaps between upper teeth. So if extraction of Molars affect the Jaw, isn't it possible to get braces without extracting the Molars ? I have those 4 crooked teeth(lower) since very long, but I am pretty sure I got the gap between my upper teeth by Mewing (as it started expanding my palette). So should I still continue Mewing or stop it ?
I had braces and cant breath out of my nose. I always had a larger nose, did braces make it larger. I notice when I push my jaw forward everything relaxes and i can breath.
Hello! I had a minor underbite and spaces so I got braces. It’s been 1.5 years now but I feel like my lower jaw just shifter towards the left. And when I bring it to my midline my mouth face looks crooked. Do you think it’ll get fixed once my entire braces time is up or I’ll have to get surgery?
Same happened with me ... And the fact is no orthodontist answer such questions !! They even avoid discussing the other side or orthodontics idk why which includes its impact on your sutures hence the adjustment of your craniofacial bones ! Discuss it openly with your orthodontist because later like me you might develop TMD In your jaw. Its a serious issue don't take it likely
@@EccentricHuman I did!! She keeps saying it’ll get fixed once the left side teeth move inside but idk I’m so scared. The only reason I even got these stupid braces was because my dentist said it was a max 1 yr treatment and now I’m about to turn 21 with a cross bite 😣

My teeth are big and i have an overbite and an underbite . Should I have braces... What do you recommend
Hello! Thanks for your question. Hopefully we are able to help.
Usually we recommend that patients who have an overbite get orthodontic treatment as this will be the easiest and most effective way to fix the problem. However, we would suggest you looking into something called Invisalign. It's very similar to braces but it's a clear alternative that you can remove when necessary. This will ensure that you you can eat and drink without any discomfort and struggle when it comes to keeping your teeth clean. The solution is also much better because people don't tend to notice it as much as they do when it comes to braces.
Over the last few years we've actually been able to treat quite a few severe cases with Invisalign instead of Braces and we've actually done a lot more Invisalign treatment at our office than braces!
Hopefully we've been able to answer your question! If you have any others please don't hesitate to ask us we would be more than happy to help! We're also really appreciate if you could subscribe to our Channel, it would really mean a lot to us! 🙏

a query
I wanted to ask a question that is it okay for a person to do face yoga while undergoing orthodontic treatment, as both work on muscles I am wearing Aligners(Invisalign)
I heard that Invisalign can cause smile lines and I want to prevent those smile lines so would it affect my treatment which is to close the gaps between teeth if I do face yoga

I had braces when i was 17 and took them off at 19 my jaw and chin changed so much would it ever get back to how it was.? .knowing that i putted on braces bc i had gaps between my teeth
you should visit a few other dentists or orthodontists and get a consultation. they will let you know if you can actually work on it again and if anything can be done.

Is it possible to use braces to purposefully manipulate the maxilla to widen?
Thank you so much for the question Joehid! We really appreciate it. Braces or Invisalign are very effective at uprighting teeth that are angled inwards. In the process, it can make the arch look wider, but the maxilla will effectively be the same. But Palatal Expander appliances can be combined with braces and Invisalign to get a more true expansion of the maxilla.We would really appreciate it if you subscribed to our channel! We are actually considering doing a video on this very topic in the next few weeks!
Dental Now Panorama thank you for the response! Oh right I stopped using my retainers for orthotropic practices. I noticed my face looked less structured when I had them on. If I don’t get the results I want, I’ll probably return back to orthodontics. Yes! I’ll definitely subscribe. Hope you have a good day
you're certainly welcome! glad we could help out. these orthotropic devices really play a significant role in the overall structure of your face, and although you may not notice it while you're wearing them they will gradually help better align your jaw. may I ask if you were wearing braces or did you go through with Invisalign treatment? 😀let us know if you have any other questions or concerns we'd be more than happy to help! thank you so much for the subscribe! we really appreciate it. it means a lot to us.

Because my face look long thats why im experiencing bullying right now
Hey Whitney, I'm so sorry to hear about you getting bullied. We understand just how important your smile can be so hopefully I can give you a hand! Usually, we can't make any recommendations for you without seeing you first, but if all you're currently dealing with is a crossbite, then you may actually be able to use both Braces and Invisalign to fix this issue! I would suggest you consider visiting a few orthodontists/dentists in your local home-town that provide both Invisalign and Braces and find ones that don't charge for a consultation.
Invisalign would probably be a much better solution for you because it will be really hard to tell that you're straightening your teeth and this way you can actually take them out when you're eating and such. For most of the patients that we see at our office, we recommend Invisalign as technology has gotten significantly better over the years. In some circumstances, we've seen that Invisalign could also be faster than Braces!
Hopefully, this helps answer your question. Please don't hesitate to contact us if you have any more questions! We would also really appreciate it if you could subscribe to our channel. It would mean a lot to us.
I will be getting braces
Glad we were able to help 😊
Sir., i have my mandible protruded ( not wider but longer)) little more than the rest of my face structr ,,now i am in ortho treatmnt ...is there any possibility of correcting my lower jaw along with my ortho treatment ,other than surgery? Plz reply
Do braces make your jaw move forward? Because I think I have this problem when I look at my past photos
Hello sir..
My face is asymmetrical..and I think one of the reason s is crooked teeth..so will me getting braces..will help asymmetry or make it more worse?
Hello Cynthia, thanks for reaching out! Hopefully we are able to give you a hand! If done properly, Braces may be able to play at least some role into the shape of your face. unfortunately it's very hard to gauge your orthodontic condition without seeing you first. Normally it may play a role especially with the symmetry of your smile. Hopefully, this helps! If you have any other questions or concerns please let us know! We would really appreciate you subscribing to our channel as we are trying to help as many people as we can! Thank you so much.
We have same experience. Hopefully braces will solve the problem.
I had it too and it did change my face shape and fixed the asymétrie look
@@amirbarkat4723 this gives me hope
@@amirbarkat4723 It changed the aysmetric look? How much crooked were your teeth?
Hello Dr, I am currently a 14 year old girl, most of my friends have all there adult teeth by now however one of mine are missing. In January of 2019, I done a small surgery on that particular tooth (bottom right incisor) where the dentist removed a ball of undeveloped tooth and other substances which was said to be blocking the growth of the incisor and that this has been caused by a tumour. The dentist explained that my tooth should start to break through the gum in a matter of 2 months. Fast forward to today, my tooth has not come through and it has been almost 2 years. I am very worried about this and considering the COVID situation we are in, I cannot do much right now. I have done my research and proposed that due to the fact I used to suck on my thumb when I was younger and sleep with my mouth open, my face has not developed the correct way, my jaw is quite narrow, cheekbones are sunken face is asymmetrical and lower face is appearing to be long, therefore my tooth does not have enough space to grow. Therefore, I really need your advice, how can I professionally get the doctors to fix my improper facial development (rise cheekbones and widen jaw) other than of course, plastic surgery and do you have any other theories as to why my tooth has not come out yet? What can be done for it to grow?
Hello, thank you so much for your question. It seems like you've done quite some research. Hopefully, we are able to help guide you in the right direction! Typically we wouldn't do surgery on patients your age because they aren't fully done growing. we usually do this for people in their very late teens or early twenties. at your age, there are non-surgical, orthodontic techniques that can potentially still make a profound improvement. Dr. Dhillon would suggest having a few consultations, ideally looking for someone who does a combination of orthodontic treatment and myofunctional treatment. (someone who can address the disorders of the muscles, face and the mouth) in the meantime, your best option is to work on your mouth breathing while you wait until you can actually start orthodontic treatment. Regarding your unerupted teeth, it is very difficult for us to give our opinion, without seeing your x-rays and seeing how close or far your teeth are from erupting, how much root development is still left, and other factors. It is pretty hard to say, but there are times where teeth need to be assisted with their eruption using orthodontic treatment. Again, this is something that should be assessed by whatever dentist or orthodontist you see during your consultations. We would certainly recommend that you get this checked out sooner rather than later. Hopefully, this helps, if you have any other questions please don't hesitate to reach out and ask.

@@DentalNowPanorama Subscribe check ✅ Just another question though, since my face is still growing, do you think braces will help elevate my cheek bones and widen my jaw to rounden the long lower face appearance?
Dental Now Panorama toxic, you literally ignored my question
Braces don't like the shape of your mouth and it grows back in right that's why all you needed was a retainer misalignment can be readjusted through mouthwash
My lower jawbone is forward I want to push it back , metal braces can push jawbone backward ?
Can I still practice proper tongue posture with braces? Will that help improve my face?
Hello. Thank you so much for reaching out. We hope we can guide you in the right direction. Yes, you can certainly still practice proper tongue posture with braces! There may be some exercises that are a little harder with braces but overall you should absolutely be focusing on fixing these underlying conditions. We actually just posted a video that details some of the exercises that you can do for better tongue posture. The video is about 6 minutes long and it talks about some other exercises that you can do at home to help with your orthodontic condition. I will attach the link so that you can watch it. ua-cam.com/video/FIcNLaUnpUU/v-deo.html
In regards to it improving your face, honestly it really depends on a few external factors such as your age, how long you practice these exercises, and the time duration tha you're expecting the changes. All these play a huge role in our patients success, but we do believe that over the long term you will see some minor changes to your face shape. If you want to learn some more details about this (it is a long podcast), Joe Rogan had a fantastic podcaster recently. About 3 weeks ago, he had a journalist named James Nestor. I will also attach his video so you can get a lot more information about some really interesting factors that influence your overall health! Here is the link ua-cam.com/video/U5o9b2RVC2E/v-deo.html

Did anyone face looked sunken in and your cheeks are prompt, along with sunken temples? Within 2 weeks of getting my braces on I notice that my face is changing from a square face to more of a heart shaped face. I still eat the same things and I’m still the same weight as before, but for some reason my chubby/muscular jaw muscles are gone. My orthodontist said noting he did should have caused the changes to my face. So can anyone tell me where or whom I can check to get my face examined so that they can find a cause of there is one?
I feel the same too
Yes I have same problem too after I got my braces treatment done my cheeks got suken
Im in braces for a year for crowding and deep bite. Got TADs recently on my upper gums. How will my face change?
cool was asking this to myself
Thank you so much we're glad that we are able to answer your questions!
Hi Doc! I have a square face and getting invisalign on Tuesday. I have an overbite and I am afraid my jaw will be bigger than the way it is now. I hope it won’t be the case coz it was always my insecurity.
Honestly I recommendation would be that you contact a few other dentist to make sure that this isn't an issue and that this is the right treatment solution for you. It's really hard to give you any sort of opinion without seeing you in person, so it's essential that we get multiple treatment opinions from different dentists.
Hi did your jaw line became more sharp ?? Because I do have same issue ... I feel my face was thinner earlier .. now it has become more wider
@@tanujabisht7994same how is it now
I have large upper lips,can wearing braces reduce my lip size or bring any change to my lip's shape?
doesnt really change anything
It actually might if you have buck teeth.
It won't likely play any significant role when it comes to your lip shape! thanks for watching our video
I'm getting my braces off soon, will my lips look smaller?
I heard that bracers and Invısalign can make the maxilla pull backwards and create a flat long face is that really possible ?
i’ve noticed that my jaw and lips have become crooked, when i look at past pictures of myself years ago, my lips and jaw are perfectly fine. did my braces cause this?
aiya so true this happened to me too

My jaw is forward and I have lip incompletence.. should I go for braces?
Pls recommend something
Sir, I am searching this question for days.
I have a receding chin so will the braces work for them too. Will the braces fix the overbite and receding chin both at the same time. I am 17 years old. My chin and jaw look weak. It looks awfull 😭. I haven't consulted to any doctor yet but if you can help a little than I can convince my parents for a doctor's consult.
Sir please reply ❤️🙏
Hey I'm from India and i have a little overbite and soon I have a tooth extraction 2 from upper side and 2 from lower one let me know if it will effect my face or any other problem
Can getting braces possibly affect the face size? Like making it narrower or wider?
it's really not a simple straight forward answer, because each patient differs. However not necessarily no, but changes in your diet such as avoiding hard foods can potentially cause some negative damage to your facial structure.
Doctor by laughing or smiling at lot daily will make face longer in size? Pls reply...
I had my braces when I was 19, got my overjet fixed with premolar extraction and wisdom teeth removal. Let’s say my face looks more receded. Unfortunately I’m in braces again at 36 but because of my coverbite and curve of spee. Hopefully it will not be further dished in
what do you mean receded?
When I smile my teeth are pointing inwards towards my tongue and in profile my mouth and lips look a bit sunken in. It’s not terrible obvious but it’s the polar opposite of protruding teeth.
Hello, I wanted to ask what’s the reason for wearing braces for the second time? Did you have Relapse after the 1st time braces? Did you wear retainers?
@@razestarso when I was 19 I only got braces on my upper jaw, and I was never informed that my lower jaw was set back so the extractions where explained to as too big teeth for a too small jaw.
In reality my upper teeth weren’t supported by my lower teeth but grew over the lower teeth into a deep overbite making me bite into my gums. It didn’t look crooked but i wondered why my top teeth tilted inwards.
Right now my lower teeth are aligned so they flare out a bit more and my incisors are intruded so my bite is opened and I need to wear rubber bands to get my jaws align correctly👍🏼
My top incisors were extracted and my teeth pulled together. This gave me less tongue space, an imperfect smile and lead to sleep apnea and possibly TMJ. Im now working with another orthodontic who informed me of these problems and how we might fix them. My braces will be removed, we'll over time see if there opens up spaces between my upper teeth, which is what we want, for me to stop breathing through my mouth at night. Also in the future Ill be wearing a device which will make my right teeth rest in a normal bite whilel the left teeth have an open bite which will fix TMJ.
U know, after extracting and before the spaces have been closed, I learned about toung space and reversed everything, thangs God I knew about this stuff, even though I'm obviously late l, but this is the best I could do now.. It was very hard mentally
.

You’re probably going to need maxillomandibular surgery to open up your airway
These braces and extraction really ruined my face badly 😢
Hi doctor, can aligners treat a mild class 2 malocclusion, with posterior openbite, and also a misaligned midline and crowding. Also the class 2 malocclusion is only on ome side, (maybe because of the misaligned jaw).
Is it possible to treat this using aligners only by moving my lower molars forward and not moving the upper molar backwards (I'm afraid it'll recess my maxilla).
Thank you doctor.
It's hard to say without seeing you in person, but we've actually been able to treat quite a few patients with class 2 malocclusion at our office using invisalign. we would recommend that you talk to a few dentists about invisalign. as it may be a good solution for your individual case. thanks again for commenting.
I currently have braces and its been about 4 months. My temple and cheeks have completely sunken. I haven't lost weight and in fact I gained about 4 pounds since getting braces. It's not in my head because everyone that sees me ask how come I've lost so much weight. Will my temple and cheeks/temple get back to normal after I remove my braces?
@Ankita Ahmed Is your profile pic before or after the sunken cheeks?
Hi how's you now?
I can't help but mouth breathe because of my pushed out chin and above that, the braces I got recently. Will it get better after the braces. Also can braces fix unwanted gummy smile??? Does braces plays no role at all in reducing gummy smile even a bit?
Actually it increases gummy smile,
@@akkuakku9448 do braces hurt a lot?
@@Moon-qu2uy not at all, I had some irritations for the frst wk, that's it.
Sir can mewing or interoral face pulling change the shape of temporal bones ?

Please help!
yeah... Obviously, braces can change your face.... My face was round shaped before.. and now it's SQUARE SHAPED with perfect JAW LINE...... 🥰👍👍👍👍✌️✌️✌️✌️🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
You know, my ortho have told me not to eat hard foods with my braces but I’ve been able to eat nuts and breads and crackers with no problem
The reason why he's saying that is because there may be a concern that you can actually damage the braces and make them come off your teeth, but at the same time it's better for your muscle structure to eat harder foods. This is just one of the many reasons why we prefer to put patients into invisalign instead! Thanks for watching.
don't know why you're going against what your ortho advised to lol
@@tce6363 cus im cool like dat lol kidding, but it’s really not bad, they’ve never seen any problem on my appointments

hi! I have an overbite and I've had braces for about a year now. I was wondering if braces will change my lips at all, like their shape and size?
Hello, thanks for your question. Hopefully we are able to help you out. Unfortunately it's really hard to say for your case and a lot of it has to do with some other factors such as your age. You will see a dramatic difference in your overbite though which should really help your face fit better as well. If you have any other questions or concerns we'd be more than happy to help! We would really appreciate you subscribing to our channel as we post a lot of content about oral health and facial changes from orthodontics
@@DentalNowPanorama thank you! I've subscribed :) I'm 15 and I have a class II division 2 overbite. In general, do braces push your lips forward and create more of a "pouty" look? I've heard of people getting braces off and saying their lips seem smaller because the braces made them look bigger
If it helps u. I had full lips and now I have to get fillers . My jaw became large . They took two teeth out the top and bottom to fix my over bite. And now I have my.perfect smile . I hate my dace my lips . I hate my face . Yes it does change ur lips . If your doctor tells u otherwise he Is lying. I'm now looking into veneers to put my over bite back
Ms Venegas wait why do u hate ur face and smile? Doesn’t braces help improve the shape of ur face? I do have a question, if u have an overbite and fixed it with braces does that make ur jaw loook larger or longer as a result?
Ms Venegas wait u can put ur overbite back?? Is it that bad?
I have an over bite and the area between my nose and upper lips protrudes outwards , almost at the same level of my nose but my lower jaw is completely normal ( it's not residing ) . Therefore, will getting braces solve the problem of my upper lip area?
Yess. I actually have the same problem
Hi, I have gum recession as a result of brushing my teeth too hard. I'm 29 this year, and want to put on braces. However, I have seen online sources about the repercussions of putting braces when my gums have recceded. As such, I'm kinda having second thoughts to go forth with a braces treatment. Should this be a concern for me?
Gum recession isn’t caused by brushing teeth. It is caused by a recessed maxilla (upper jaw bone). This is due to improper tongue posture and body posture.
Can braces improve my side profile? I've been very insecure about how my side profile looks.
Same here- i look too ugly
Last year I was really excited to get braces because I don't want my classmates to bully me.Theres no problem with my face back then,I liked it very much. But the only problem is my teeth.
I got my braces last July
Now my face looks fatter
And I don't really like it😟
I hope that you're telling these concerns to your dentist! As we mentioned, there's a lot of factors that could cause this and it's best that he's fully aware of your thoughts and concerns. He should be there for you throughout your treatment.
Did you get your Molars extracted ?
@Waterbaby Oxox my jaw got wider
@@angel-mm9zc how it is now
Fuck those Bullies, I am sure you are still pretty, stay strong❤
Sir, actually my lips are going to outward while taking braces ,Will it as well after braces off?...
What ab elastics in our braces journey, will it affect my facial structure
it should be used only according to the discretion of the dentist. please make sure that you ask him.
Hi sir! I feel like my ugly teeth really has to do with my asymmetrical face, if I get braces will it be fixed? Thank you!
Same question
i have my braces on for like 1year 3months. and my face still asymmetry. maybe i still have to wait more 😭
It's really hard to say because each condition is so different. Some people may be able to fix it, and some may not due to the severity. Many people will however consider getting braces and getting jaw surgery so that they can get the most out of their treatment. This would probably be the most effective solution for many people who have severe facial asymmetry.
@@fairyluvies8556 what happened?
@@marietampouikou179 nothing. it just my face is asymmetry and i thought braces would fix them but nope i was wrong 😁👍 and I started to love and accept my asymmetry face !
i have an overbite the dr said that my lower teeth will be pushed forwards so is my jaw. can that happen? im only getting braces and i dont wanna change my face or jaw
basically my law jaw is somewhat tilted and my teeth are not in perfect shape so can braces help in giving a perfect jawline if there is a minor asymmetry??
So. If you had good face structure when you were a keed. Then basically... Mewing is the option to somehow fix those things cuz you know I had a side profile of anime character with 90 degree lower jaw and perfect nose bridge and shape. I had a problem with my nose which... Made me breath my mouth resulting in round face and longer face.... So mewing is the option.
Can braces fix your facial asymmetry if it was caused by a missing front bottom lateral incisor? One side of my bottom teeth shifted over to fill in the gap , so I don't have any gap between my teeth but my face sort of went with my teeth on one side, causing asymmetry. Could braces push back out all my teeth on the bottom/right side?
If you look at my 4 Canine teeth, the right canines don't line up, because the bottom side of my teeth shifted in due to a missing front/bottom lateral incisor.
It sucks because I had a really nice face for about 26 years but I didn't take care of my teeth when I was a little kid , so I've had issues later on. My face which used to be pretty symmetrical , now one side looks completely different than the other. I'm not sure if it was from my missing tooth (which I don't know how it went missing , sounds crazy I know), or if it was from a top right-side back molar extraction. sucks
Hello, I will get our dentist to look over this question in more detail and get back to you within the next few days. This is a little over my head and I want to make sure you can get an actual answer to your question!
