Its sad that I basically look like this.. deformed.
Bimaxillary protrusion is a commonly seen deformity in Asian populations. This condition is characterized by protrusive and proclined upper and lower incisors and an increased procumbency of the lips.
What causes this long philtrum in asians? I suspect its partially diet and genetics. my dad has a long philtrum. I know long philtrum is a looks killer, making you look primitive
Do i have bimaxillary protrusion?
Idk if mewing can even help me. my philtrum is so long. I used to have buck teeth, everyone made fun of me. My two front teeth jutted out and this also stretched my philtrum i think. Normally, my philtrum would follow the red line and protrude forwards, but i saw this post: The Lip Seal thread – Main Forum – Correction Methods – The Great Work Community (the-great-work.org)
and so in the pic i am consciously trying to suck my lips into teeth, but doing so feels awkward because it makes my philtrum look really long from front (i feel like i am stretching it making it longer). its also hard to keep my lips together in the first place because of my overbite and recession. Can mewing help? What can i do?
