Do you have bite turbos anywhere in your mouth (back of front teeth or back molars)? If so, they'll make your mouth not close all the way and cause your face to appear longer and your jaw to appear thinner. In addition, you're using your jaw muscles a little differently and over time they can weaken and also cause thinning. The same thing happened to me throughout my treatment and it really freaked me out because my face was already really narrow. But after the turbos wore down and eventually came off, my chin/jaw looks back to normal.
no bite turbos. just a natural overbite.
that is interesting, maybe it is all the smiling i do know.

Do you know how much longer you'll be in them for?
Absolutely no idea. I kinda hope before my 30th birthday. But, I can't really see that happening. I feel misled, they were meant to be off by Christmas. It's why I am not saying much, don't want to spread negativity.
