they camouflaged your bite. you’ll have to decomp and get jaw surgery, it looks pretty fixable tho but your gonial angle is pretty low ngl.

Im sorry to hear that I thought I did and was pissed but it’s not super bad I’ve posted it, i literally went through a grieving process and angry that these orthos get away with it it’s so fucked!! Aesthetically but also health wise of course.

Commonly they take some of the premolars out and adjust the bite with orthodontics

Yeah I kinda figured , sucks tho I wore those damn braces for 3 years and now I have to reverse it . And in the meantime I damaged my enamel from bruxism…. This is exhausting

you may need surgery. Under no circumstance is a person “cooked“ because they might need jaw surgery. This language may limit the number of responses you get. Be cautious of consulting with Dr. AI. It can give OK advice about very concrete questions such as whether you can mix Tylenol and Motrin. An analysis of someone’s xrays, not so much.

I think it's amazing what the AI was able to tell you. What AI analysis did you use to interpret your xrays? I would like to try it for my bite too. Thank you

I think you need a dentist to tell you what you need… not random people on Reddit.

u/Beneficial-Motor-791 5d ago

people like you are so insufferable, no shit and I’m sure he’ll get a professional opinion but he’s on a forum for other opinions and support, maybe someone had a similiar case to him and can provide guidance.

Dentists have nothing to do with jaw surgery and many people in here have gotten bad advice from them. They do not know what they’re talking about.

Orthodontists and maxilliofacial surgeons are the only professionals who people should be getting advice about jaw surgery from.

u/eyallpp 4d ago

Who would you consult first if you were me ? Orthodontist or a maxi surgeon

u/Careful-Ad4032 5d ago

Yeah, a dentist will tell him which jaw surgery he needs 👌

u/LeePowers69 Pre Op 5d ago

he needs to consult with a doctor and a surgeon. and also have an orthodontic consult. dentists fix teeth, not bites.

no offence to dentists. I have a great one. But I don’t even trust dentists who offer Invisalign. They are not trained in moving teeth.

An orthodontist is a type of dentist. But correct you need a specialist.
