Introduction

Forward growth is something that is extremely desirable and overall very attractive. It either makes or breaks your side and front profile - and what
determines this is your parents. Did your parents feed you tough foods, did they refrain from inhibiting your natural swallowing posture or your natural resting posture
(both mewing)? Did they protect you from colds, fevers, clogged noses and the tissues lining your nasal passages (stuffed noses)? Did they disallow things that would ruin
your head posture, and then therefore sabotage the growth of your maxilla, mandible, cheekbones and your eye area? Definitely not, this is precisely why you believe in the blackpill theory and actively, consciously realise your life is dependent on looks? Because it is, data has shown this numerous times - however this isn't a post to inform the greycels to the foundation pillars of blackpill. This is to naturally fix your recession. However, I will not be discussing why you are recessed in depth, I have already mentioned this frequently in previous posts.
If you are unable to read large chunks of informative text because your brain is so deep fried, then find a different shit post.

Absolute Bangers To Listen To:




The maxillae is a pyramidal-shaped structure, located inside the skull and is the central aesthetic and
functional aspect of the face (midface). It contains an air-filled cavity called the
maxillary sinus.

It is classified as the bone of the viscerocranium (facial skeleton) and also forms what is called the
maxilla (the upper jaw) The maxillae contributes to the formation of the bony orbit, nasal cavity, most of the hard palate and
a specific fossaand and fossa. Moreover, it holds the upper teeth and plays a crucial role in mastication (the process
of chewing food
). Overall, the maxilla not only structural support, but enhances
facial aesthetics and the functional quality i.e your sleep or breathing.



Having a recessed maxilla, is in my humble opinion, a really bad flaw. However, nothing defeats the likes of a recessed mandible. The difference
between a recessed and forward grown maxilla is not something subtle, it's something that can really shatter your face, your confidence, and how people
treat you. It's really something that can destroy the remnants of your self-esteem and worth to mere powder. Nothing beats hating yourself more:

When the upper jaw is deemed or suspected to be recessed, the bone that supports the midface, (cheeks, nose and upperteeth (the maxilla))
has not grown forwards and up; this results in upper jaw retrusion (i.e at the same time it is atophied (having lost effectiveness or vigour due to underuse
or neglect, aka chewing soft foods all your life and not mewing throughout your childhood and even right now.) This causes
an undesirable imbalance in the face.
It's not just a matter of aesthetics. Your functioning and self-esteem are potentially influenced
by a recessed upper jaw and subsequently affects your breathing, mouth posture and bite.



Unfortunately, recessed upper jaws cause a lot of damage, whether that be aesthetically
or to correlate with your health.
Dorsal Humps: Yes, a recessed maxilla actually causes that ugly weird hump
in the nose. This is due to the fact the nasal cartilage possibly developing backwards to compensate
for an underdeveloped upper jaw. I can't stress compensation enough, and it's why both your
mandible and upper jaw are recessed - to compensate for the weight of your protruding head
posture, the pair must stay behind and balance the weight.
Surgeries For The Hump And For Bringing Forward Your Maxilla: In my opinion, there is only one true effective way of eliminating the
dorsal hump in the nose, and this is through orthognathic surgery. This surgery is a type of correction,
a maxillary advancement surgery, where it repositions the maxilla forward to its proper anatomical position.
You can also get a nose job, where the surgeon will slice off that layer of dorsal hump; but you're just avoiding the problem
and going an easier but ineffective route. Yeah, you're fixing your nose but you're not fixing the
underlying cause: the recessed upper jaw. So you'll still look facially underdeveloped from the side.

The second picture is of a normie, who can't clearly identify his maxilla and mandible
are recessedfrom the side. Poor guy spent his money saving for a nose job instead
of surgery for either his maxilla and mandible. Be grateful
you're in the blackpill, at least you aren't unknowledgeable like
these normies I feel a small pool of empathy for.
- Flat or underdeveloped midface
- Sunken cheeks or deep lines around the nose when smiling (
or stationary if it's really recessed)
- Narrow smile or prominent gums when smiling
- Visible underbite from a side picture
- Difficulty breathing through your nose
- Mouth breathing, especially at night (
you should mew whenever your mouth is shut.)
- Lack of facial harmony

There are many different ways to tackle a recessed maxilla
and thanks to the modern world, they are very good in my opinion. I'll be only
stating methods and surgeries I find effective, useful and something that won't waste
your time or your money; and prove to provide eternal, beautiful results.
Myofunctional Therapy & Mewing: The jaw position is affected by soft tissue habits. Exercises that train
the tongue to rest on the palate (mewing, founded my Dr Mike Mew, and originally his father) (your tongue should've been resting
on your palate since the minutes you were born and even as you're reading this) and improve nasal breathing can complement
orthodontic treatment and permanently prevent relapse, especially when started early. Myofunctional therapy is a series
of (re)strengthening the muscles in the face, mouth and throat to make your tongue suction
stronger against the roof of your mouth (the palate). However, when you were younger, you already
had a strong suction, it just gets inhibits through bad head posture and oral habits.
Mewing: It's the natural form, where your tongue rests against the
roof of your mouth and you swallow your spit, which creates an even stronger bond to
your palate. Your teeth are influenced by the pressure applied onto the palate by your tongue,
that's why you may have crooked teeth and a small palate - your suction was inhibited, and therefore
sabotaged your growth

WHAT TO DO: I stated this in my previous post but in a very informal way. You should
get a palate expander, NOT BRACES. Braces hurt like hell, and in my opinion, are very
shit. They're so expensive - and all they do is rearrange your teeth to become straight
in the room of your mouth that there is. BUT THE THING IS, you "need" braces
because your palate is small, and when your palate shrunk through adolescence,
your teeth had to twist and turn to accommodate themselves with the small room. It's like
trying to fit a family of 10 in a 6 by 6 room - extremely difficult, tight and annoying. That's what it
was like for your teeth.
So that's precisely why I recommend an expander, constant mewing
(it'll be difficult since the expander has a barrier between your palate and your tongue to
rip open your face in half) and chewing tough gum like mastic gum 2-3 hours a day. I really recommend
chewing mastic gum for more than an hour a day to toughen your bite force and to allow your teeth
to grind against something actually tough.

Notice how if the tongue rests on the roof of the mouth throughout
(the rest of) your life, it'll project your face upwards and out, instead
of downwards like the flat recessed face on the bottom.

I might drop a similar article for the mandible, if I can be bothered.
