I've noticed more or less the same. This may be because of my osteopathic treatments almost every month, but I'm not sure. My appliance comes out soon...
I think the reason the online mewing community has stalled is mostly because we've just figured it out. It's not too complex. Release any tongue ties,...
I bet it's not more complicated than just old-school orthodontic thinking, which would be that MSE makes aligning teeth—without doing anything else—mo...
Completely agree. Ronald Eade has made some excellent videos outlining this exact thinking, as well.
Fascinating analysis! Thanks for posting
I think it conserved existing assymetries, which at a glance might look like it made things worse, but I'm pretty sure I just need to fix the yaw of m...
I've done osteopath adjustments frequently throughout MSE treatment and my experience with it is that it seems irresponsible to do MSE without it! Man...
It obviously did have a significant effect, as shown by the fact that his lifelong chronic health problems disappeared with no other changes lmao
Well you're just completely misinformed. There are tons and tons of people in middle age with proof that mewing or orofacial myofunctional therapy wor...
A retention device?? You misunderstand MSE. Your body creates new bone in the opened suture so that you don't need any kind of retainer
Cool, cool! You are right that it's not possible to mew with the MSE in—I've seen that on my own CT scans. Looking very much forward to having it out ...
Why are we so sure we can't achieve the same or better with a completely untethered tongue (like what zaghimd.com is doing in LA) and the MSE on its o...
A few years ago, I measured the deviation in the bridge of my nose at 4mm left of my interpupillary midline, and I recorded improvements of about 2mm....
I would travel to see a skilled osteopath. To be completely honest, I don't think it's even remotely possible to DIY cranial osteopathy (and my own ve...
Nope you're just tongue-tied lmao I guarantee you're not actually doing the swallow correctly like you think you are. When I had mine released most ...
Is the bone asymmetrical in the same way? Wouldn't the muscle just follow the scaffolding it's on?
@apollo I believe one of the most reliable ways you can do this is to see a qualified osteopath who does cranial adjustments before and throughout t...
That's a plausible idea, but when I was actively expanding my own MSE, I noticed forward expansion happening as I turned the appliance. If you get tha...
As well as the substantial risk that the TADs of the second expander would just drag through the immature bone in the gap, unlike it would with dense ...
I couldn't agree more about the posture–personality link. I noticed very distinctly that when I first had some progress with mewing at about age 21/22...
I think you're just tongue-tied lol
Not to be antagonistic, but for the sake of others who may be trying to decide about MSE for themselves: that literally is the point of mewing, and yo...
Isn't the point of the MSE to create enough space so that you can do that? When I had my tongue tie released, I automatically swallowed correctly and ...
Sorry, what I meant is why pick the FM after successful MSE treatment instead of just mewing afterwards? If you finally get enough space, and the sutu...
Can't you just mew normally once you get enough transverse space? I don't understand why everyone is so interested in the FM—wouldn't mewing with your...
Very cool! I'm about to get my own MSE in a few weeks. Can you update us when you find out the details of that turn protocol? I've heard a variety of ...
Starting it in a few weeks!
Braces can move any of your teeth in pretty much any direction. I had a consultation with Dr. Ting and he told me that most of his adult MSE patients ...
Molars not fixed, but they work just fine for chewing. I was just a little alarmed when I made that post two years ago. I'm pretty sure I'm going to s...
Did you have inflation on both sides? Wouldn't inflating on both sides result in no net movement of the sphenoid?
Is it uncomfortable? I'm all about moving the sphenoid and have had great experiences with chiropractic and osteopathy, but not a huge fan of sticking...
That's really interesting. How did you decide which side to inflate in? Did you end up doing inflations on both sides?
That makes sense, thank you! I have been doing that and it looks better than it did
I found a screenshot I had taken of another post by Progressand thought about your examples here ^ I looked at old pictures of myself, when I was ar...
Congrats, very cool! Looking forward to seeing your pictures.
Your alveolar ridge is somewhat tipped, and if your back teeth were less proclined, it wouldn't measure that high. I personally think that IMW is a po...
So what kind of position do you suggest exactly? My SCMs are most activated the more I look up, but I can flex them in almost any position except very...
What does it feel like to have the ALF in? Can you link those examples?
Turns out my last tongue tie release was almost complete, but it's a little like a solar eclipse: 99% is nowhere near as interesting as 100%. Once I h...
What position did you wake up in without a pillow? Supine?
Agreed—except for that last paragraph. No one really knows, yet. Mewing just has not been around that long! I think if you rectify your CFD you will d...
Posted by: @moemoe Thanks Silver for pointing out the website. I had a look and I have decided to give scalp massages a go. You mention the r...
The whole scalp! There are two different massages you do for the hairline or vertex area, where you might be balding, and for the perimeter, where a l...
You're actually exactly right. Rob over at PerfectHairHealth.com (no affiliation, but I am a customer) has fairly conclusively documented the etiology...
This is terrifying, but great information. Aging really is just anti-mewing. Once the maxilla is fully supported by the tongue, you should look mostly...
Do you know if you have a tongue tie? That will prevent you from getting there. I had to have mine lasered, which was painless and instantly improved ...
Outstanding progress
Yes, a little.
@qwerty135 @horatio That's exactly what I'm getting at. I would also add that that artist's recreation of a Paleolithic girl is very unlikely just bec...
I don't think the premise of the question is sensical in light of the theory of CFD. The only "feature" that makes sense to scrutinize in isolation is...
I'm sorry you took it that way. CFD is just a way of describing imperfect facial development. Everyone has CFD—it's an inclusive spectrum. These model...
Actually, recession enhances orbital support because, again, the hinge point is at the zygomatic buttress, and the bottom of the maxilla swings in, so...
I don't mean to be rude, but lower CFD almost always looks better than higher—male or female. What you're discussing, neoteny, is enhanced and preserv...
Couldn't agree more. Outstanding natural beauty.
One Amazon review:
I doubt that zero-CFD exists much in the first world—Mike Mew has said in lectures that ancient man had intermolar widths that defy imagination and un...
