16, 10mm overJET, recessed maxilla, recessed mandible, narrow pallete, no forward growth, I’m in a dilemma.
Essentially with a 10mm overjet they can’t just slap on braces to align them so they’re gonna have to go down the root of extraction or retracting, I only have 28 teeth not happening.
Considering I do have sleep apnea and have struggled with nasal breathing as a child, plus slurred speech, misaligned teeth, tongue tie, unable to Mew I am definitely qualified for MARPE but I don’t know if it’s what I need considering MARPE gives you horizontal growth not forward.
My main concern is just bringing my maxilla and mandible forward and having a wider pallete which does require more than one device but I need to know what steps I should take.
I could go in for MARPE now and get BSSO in the future but that still wouldn’t give me my forward projection in the maxilla.
would do double jaw and everything but even in the future idk if I’d be spending 100K to do the procedure considering I’d probably rope past 25
What should I get
