Serious question. I’ve noticed that one side of my maxilla is recessed (the right side from my perspective). How can this be fixed?

I think you can see what I mean by the recession in the photos. It seems like this happened because I mostly slept on one side of my face, so that side developed more than the other. I’m going to try to correct it, although I know it won’t be easy or quick.

My main idea is to sleep on the underdeveloped side while maintaining proper mewing posture. I’ve also considered bone-smashing the maxilla with a U-shaped attachment, but I’m not sure whether that would help. Another idea I had was to hook a towel around my upper back teeth and pull more toward the side that’s lagging behind.

What do you think about this overall? Is there anything you would recommend? Do you think it’s possible to correct the asymmetry using the methods I’ve described?

I don’t think it’s just lighting. If you know what you’re looking at, you can see that the zygomatic projection is noticeably better on one side than on the other. The weaker side has less forward projection in the midface region. Lighting can exaggerate it, sure, but I don’t think it fully explains the difference

I know more about facial bones than most people, and I’ve spent a lot of time talking to people who are highly knowledgeable in this area. I’ve also improved my own face without surgery, so I’m not new to this.

The thing is, I overlooked this issue for a long time and only noticed it relatively recently, which is why I’m trying to correct it now.

If it was just lighting or head tilt, I would have realized that immediately. The difference I’m seeing goes beyond that
