Start point
Amount of compensations your mom had when she had you + amount of compensations gained as you grew older
Progress
The mouth guard increases your progress by a x amount, the more it's worn the more progress is made as it adds on it self. The fast method makes your progress 10-20x the mouthguard would and is needed for further improvements after a point I time.
The end
The soft tissue end where your body is no longer collapsed compared to before. And the True end where you would like like a model
This is a short simplification of the process
random starting point ---progresss--The soft tissue end---progresss----True end
Used as a example of the process how long it will take is based on the start point how fast you are going and what you consider you end goal
