I have like 2 problems with my mouth.

#1 I have an openbite

#2 I have like, a misshapen jaw structure

(it's like my rear jaw doens't come down far enough, and the bones of my front teeth are too long)

I am EXTREMELY self conscious and depressed about how my mouth is shaped

I think it's a symptom of a greater genetic issue. What do you think?

Try looking for a dentist who provides orthodontic implants. This is a relatively new technique which can be used to treat open bite cases like yours without surgery.
