@admin What a great answer. The deeper I get in the more complex it all seems and quite beyond my ability to explain. I have long suspected that ortho...
I like the idea of using magnets in theory because it could make an appliance pulse.
I think it is important and not just to facilitate Mewing, but because it’s always right.The whole shoulder girdle is important. Walk like a Cretan Sh...
@ayla-mao There is something about that photo that is more than skinny. You can barely see his trapezius. I had a thick neck higher up- a large collar...
I think it may work the other way round. I am also a counter example in that I have always had a thick neck. I find lifting weights a good exercise...
I think ramus thickness is affected by muscle mass but that length has to do with dental height. We tend to think of tipped in molars as being normal....
I am not an Arabic speaker. My comment, rather flippant for one I meant seriously, was based on the sound in pronouncing Allah and generally overheari...
@user919119 I think it is a holistic job. That your whole body has adapted to the changes in your jaw. That measurement of intermolar width will be d...
Note also that my old fashioned language comes from the fact that I am old. I am over fifty. I have had many more years to get into a truly dreadful m...
@eddiemoney I don’t think I have ever posted something with more typos. But it is urgent truth, in my view. I am appreciative of your response. You ar...
Do not try to map the extent of your asymmetry. An accurate assessment will send you either mad or into the depths of despair. Surgey is something I w...
We just differ on what morality means. You call it lifestyle and behaviour.
The Tropic Premise suggests that facial development has a large moral element. Of course there are genetic determinants too. But if we compare British...
Not for sustained periods, but I think it sounds good, which you appear to also. Sometimes I think all the movement I achieve is involuntary and that ...
Well if my thinking is right with the upswing they will appear less tipped out. All good.
I have not read of people suffering dehiscence as a result of mewing. If your teeth are tipped in where there is recession of the gums, uprighting the...
I always understood that the measurement should be the narrowest point between the first molars. But I don’t think matters. We are not trying to achie...
Have you tried measuring again? It looks like your teeth have got narrower in the second which is both improbable and undesirable. Mewing progress in ...
That explains a fair bit of the awkwardness to how you look in the pics. I am also astounded by what you have been told and more so by the proposed tr...
Remarkable result. It is rather wonderful to think that many may set to this work just for vanity and get solutions to problems they had not even iden...
There is both a movement of the ramus forward from the ear and a rotation of the mandible that we call upswing but involves a lowering at the back. In...
The feedback from body has been very important. Right from the beginning when there were few things other signs that I was achieving anything it told ...
I feel it more as a pulling back of the maxilla resulting in a static tongue feeling as if it is driving forward between the teeth. The downward sensa...
Yes. Beware chewing hard on an asymmetrical jaw. Check to see if when eating you have developed the habit of chewing on one side, or favour one side f...
It feels like pulling the back of the roof of your mouth back and down. It should not create contraction down into the throat though it is tightening ...
It is a difficult task but some improvement is in my opinion both possible and worthwhile. Mewing is the start. Getting your head straight on your sho...
You can create this pull down effect by contraction of facial muscles around the nose when Mewing. The depressor septi and levator labii superioris at...
That one’s tongue should at sometime in the day occupy the lower arch to counteract the inward forces of the cheeks and lower lip. I thought the postu...
There is a lot to be gained from this. Also consider that this is not a game of finding the one perfect trick to rebuilding one’s mouth. A variety of ...
Ronald Ead has not achieved his results through Mewing but through a succession of dramatic orthodontic treatments, some succesful some not.
I could not say. I was interested to read about the ALF device and its aim to be part of a remedy for cranial sidebend in children. This is where the ...
From time to time, and increasingly frequently as I progress, Mewing creates in me a continuous tone, much less sharp than night vision goggles, more ...
I think conversion to Islam would be a good adjunct to Mewing. There seems to be a particularly strong emphasis on the “ll” sound in their chants. I r...
It seems the short road is a cul de sac.
It would be interesting to see photos of him in action rather than displaying results. Extreme chin tucking and hard mewing both sound as if they invo...
I do not think most pops and cracks I get are necessarily movement. I suspect a few of the larger and more disconcerting ones are. I do however associ...
Wouldn’t Mike Mew’s few reservations about Starecta apply all the more to your suggestion? If this is your problem I don’t think you should write off ...
I have used exercises similar to those you have described, not specifically with the idea of fixing asymmetry but rather with the idea of finding new ...
This is rare on this site, most people just hope that their lower palate will expand laterally and it does not. There is also little suggestion that t...
This helps. Her teeth have changed in angle as well as the breadth of the arch in the frontal photo. So some orthodontic work too? LeFort is just movi...
I think a similar retainer caused me the trouble I described because my tongue was positioned in my lower jaw. If you are mewing it won’t cause that p...
This is a good account of your terrible tale. Your observation about how orthodontic appliances change tongue posture is particularly acute. I suffere...
Her teeth are in a much better arch. It is a good example of what goes to make a pleasing smile. Things quite remote from the work done are affected p...
GrowRightOrDie explains a bit in the thread. ‘Below your lower incisors’ is a starting point to get the tongue as far forward in the mouth as possible...
‘With the least possible facial muscles’ is a phrase doing a lot of work. To achieve this the lip seal has to be precisely and lightly achieved and we...
Good stuff. It is more subtle even than a mere lip seal. It is about the quality of the lip seal if you want it to lead the muscles around the face a...
I agree Lil Nut. Another thing that can prevent progress in fixing it or make it worse is tilting your head to one side. If you do this your neck musc...
It is very difficult to remove the twist you describe. Holding the mandible to the left and moving about will do so much only. Exercises to untwist th...
Work on lengthening the back of your neck to stop tilting your head. Check you are not favouring one side in chewing. Check you are not tilting your ...
I think he is right. I think dentists describe adult orthodontic treatment in cosmetic terms not only to market and not only because they understand t...
I think of 34 mm as normal narrow. I think it is where many people here start. I haven’t used a palate expander and you should probably take this into...
You need to expand and flatten your palate. Your maxilla is recessed. Your nose shows this by its lack of straightness. The first thing to change is t...
How do you normally posture your mouth when you are breathing? It is quite common for people to have difficulty breathing when they start mewing. Tha...
The first thing I would pay attention to in your neck is releasing tension in it. Often people do not hold their head straight on their neck and have ...
The uptodate photo puts a very different perspective on things. Do you think the ‘unintentional’ pushing up on the right and out on the left was set b...
I want (A). I will persist in asking for it as my airway and joints do not object. I see no reason why my upper incisors should win in the conflict it...
I also started with a narrow palate. This is in my view quite the right way to go. The front can come in time. Movement is slow at the beginning. I ha...
@progress I misunderstood. When you wrote you suspected that mewing would not be enough, I thought you were referring to orthodontic help. I find myse...
