MARPE or MSE, unsure yet. I havent measured my palate yet but i'm 99% sure it's narrow.

Invisalign

Herbst Appliance

Reverse Pull face mask (tilted upwards rather than downwards, would this work??)


obviously the real solution here would be a bimaxx with ccw rotation alongside implants but that's not always possible.

Bimax is the only solution, teeth and smile would be amazing if you follow through tho, don’t get extractions

I might have a mild case of sleep apnea but the symptoms only occur when sleeping on my back. My tongue also seems to be JUST about fitting in my palate but every issue is minor.

I also agree but it's a lot more easier said than done. Is a counter clock wise rotation of the mandible usually covered by medicare?
