Asked By:SandraSelcouth in Macedonia, IL

I've been a mouth breather since I was a child, and it has changed my looks quite much. My nose got a bit bigger, and my forehead is sloping, I also have a little bit of a gummy smile. I started practicing breathing through my nose, and keeping my lips and teeth together and my tongue on the roof of my mouth. Is this going to help me? Do I have a chance to change my looks by doing this? Is there still hope for me even though I'm 20?
