My face looks unbalanced from grinding my teeth, how can I fix this? (Photos)

April 6, 2019

Hi there, I am a 34 year old female. I have had braces before. But I grind my teeth at night. As a result I have noticed my chin receding. Hence making me cheeks and nose look bigger. My face is unbalanced it’s my nonexistent chin. I’m not sure what to do. Any recommendations would help out a lot. Should I get genioplasty with jaw adjustment, a chin implant or facelift dentistry?
