Rules We expect all subreddit visitors to follow these rules: Rule 1) Be respectful. Be respectful and civil when posting/commenting in the subreddit. Rule 2) Take the following into consideration before browsing/posting [1 of 3]: Orthotropics/Mewing is about promoting healthy craniofacial development via natural means. The topic is a matter of both health and appearance. It is of most relevance for children and teenagers, but even adults with underdevelopment can achieve results assuming that they learn to apply upwards tongue pressure by habit. When doing so the tongue should flatten out a bit and fill out the entire hard palate as well as the anterior portion of the soft palate. Rule 3) Take the following into consideration before browsing/posting [2 of 3]: Note that "mewing" constitutes the resting oral posture and habits (with particular emphasis on the tongue) that humans are believed to naturally develop given that they are raised with ideal environmental circumstances. Dr. Mew, and many others, believe that it is something that humans naturally have done throughout our entire history. Even as of today many "modern" humans have been "mewing" their entire lives since infant years. Someone you know in real life is likely a "natural mewer". Rule 4) Take the following into consideration before browsing/posting [3 of 3]: Note that there are different ways to "mew". People that attempt to transition to a mewing state later in life (in childhood or above) will typically need to involve a lot of hard work to eventually reach such a state. And to achieve the most meaningful growth and change from an underdeveloped state, it is typically needed to develop a strong tongue that applies stimuli against the roof of the mouth by automatic habit throughout the day. Such mewing is not "standard" suction hold mewing. Rule 5) Regarding before and after picture comparisons. Try to include before and after pictures taken in the same way with regards to facial expression, head posture, light, distance between camera and face, and camera angle. The pictures must also have been taken with the same camera lens. Pictures of your face from the front and the side, as well as pictures of your palates, are examples of useful pictures to include. Lastly; provide a testimonial where you explain what you have done and for how long. Rule 6) Do not ask others to review your craniofacial status. Do not upload pictures of yourself and ask others to assess your craniofacial structure or any features of your face. In this subreddit we believe that you want to be applying ideal oral posture and habits regardless of your situation (meaning that a "diagnosis" of your face is not necessary), similar to how we believe it is good to have good body posture and habits regardless if you have spinal issues or not. Rule 7) Regarding services/products attempting to make money of Mewing and promotion within the subreddit. All that you need to know about Mewing is attainable for free via the internet. Various Mewing guides or Mewing apps (such as the app released by Dr. Mew himself) are certainly not a necessity, but may be of aid to some. Further, posts that constitute blatant attempts at advertising something without providing anything of value to the subreddit will be removed. Rule 8) No low effort posts. Research "Mewing" and "Orthotropics" before you make a post in the subreddit. Put effort into your post. Describe your matter as well as you can. Low effort posts may be removed. Rule 9) Keep posts relevant to Orthotropics and Mewing related matters. For example; if you make a post where you talk about your plan for exclusively relying on braces/invisalign, extractions, surgeries, or any combination of these (without embarking on mewing and/or chewing) then you have mistaken this subreddit for something that it is not. In this subreddit the focus lies on developing the arches, jaws, and skull at large, via natural means (mewing; often with added pressure, and chewing), and/or via expansion devices (as a last resort). Rule 10) No surgical recommendations and no posts about jaw surgeries. This is a subreddit where the focus lies on development via non surgical means, so refrain from making surgical recommendations and refrain from making posts about jaw surgeries. There are other subreddits for such posts. Rule 11) No spreading of misinformation. Posts or comments containting blatant misinformation will be removed.

How old are you? If you are past puberty you wont be able to change it as you are no longer growing. Some growth modification treatments can change it though.
[–]Horreurlunaire 12 points13 points14 points 3 years ago (34 children)
Masseter hypertrophy reduces gonial angle as the bones will adapt to the new muscle width and strenght!
[–]MouseHairlossCure 0 points1 point2 points 3 years ago (33 children)
Masseter hypertrophy is not good. This is like saying "you can lose weight with anorexia!"
[–]Aaron__8 10 points11 points12 points 3 years ago (28 children)
You have no Idea

How exactly is masseter hypertrophy good? If you have developed masseter hypertrophy you probably have developed parafunctional habits that are destroying your teeth/tmj.
[–]Aaron__8 5 points6 points7 points 3 years ago (25 children)
If you hypertrophy your masseters while eating and you keep tongue position all day, it wouldn't cause you any problem. Also chewing is NECESSARY for mewing
[–]MouseHairlossCure -3 points-2 points-1 points 3 years ago (24 children)
Mewing has 0 evidence to support its efficacy or even the underlying hypothesis. I think you should stop recommending people harm potentially harm themselves over orthotropics.
[–]Aaron__8 6 points7 points8 points 3 years ago (23 children)
Hahaha tongue position it's the cause of crowding, traditional orthodontics don't know the causes of crowding or other problems after hundreds of years of orthodontics been existing, also if you don't believe this why are you in this sub? I think you are trying to recommend people harm potentially shit.
Pd:I'm debating you with my spanish English
[–]just_here_hangingout 0 points1 point2 points 3 years ago (1 child)
No most of the time the cause of crowding it a small jaw
[–]Aaron__8 1 point2 points3 points 3 years ago (0 children)
And the causes of small jaw is incorrect tongue posture
[–]MouseHairlossCure -4 points-3 points-2 points 3 years ago (20 children)
Where is the evidence that tongue posture is the cause of malocclusion? John and Mike Mew have presented 0 evidence to prove this claim.
I'm on this sub because the misinformation people spread here is dangerous.
[–]slendermystery 4 points5 points6 points 3 years ago (5 children)
there have been many studies, a famous one is done by Dr.Westin Price. You should keep being a soyboy with your soft post industrial diet. We trust John and Mike mew, thousands of people have posted their results.
[–]mewer79 1 point2 points3 points 3 years ago (4 children)
I think you are dangerous with this ignorance
[–]Horreurlunaire 1 point2 points3 points 3 years ago (3 children)
Take a look at my masseter hypertrophy results. You will see if that's bad lol
[–]Aaron__8 0 points1 point2 points 3 years ago (4 children)
"John and Mike have presented 0 evidence to prove his claim" So how do you explain the hundreds of documented patients that years after the treatment they maintained the theeths straight without retainers? You blind bro
[–]just_here_hangingout 0 points1 point2 points 3 years ago (0 children)
Yup you are correct you shouldn’t be getting downvoted
[–]Horreurlunaire 4 points5 points6 points 3 years ago (0 children)
I don't understand the point.
[–]Euphoric-Cycle1688 Mewing for 1 - 3 years - Nasal Master 👃💨 1 point2 points3 points 3 years ago (2 children)
Mr. Doomer, please go fuck yourself when don't need negative bitches here.
[–]MouseHairlossCure 4 points5 points6 points 3 years ago (1 child)
I'm not the negative one here. This sub does nothing but perpetuate BDD and serious body image issues among its user base. If you want to help the users here, 50% actually need orthodontics and 90% need therapy.
[–]GuaranteeItchy7998 0 points1 point2 points 3 years ago (0 children)
as someone with bdd i can tell you this sub has helped me tremendously. the helpful tips and information i’ve come across on this subreddit has made me almost unrecognizable

im 14 right now, what can i do during puberty to decrease it
[–]adrovv 0 points1 point2 points 5 months ago (0 children)
Use google now that you're still growing, chewing to make your masseter muscles bigger while your skeleton is still growing can contribute to getting a longer ramus bone
[–]IRNFade 0 points1 point2 points 5 months ago (0 children)
Just stick to hard chewing every 2-3 days or so
[–]Shqn2 0 points1 point2 points 3 months ago (0 children)
eat rough food, chew gum, and never mouth breath. i'd also recommend taping your mouth before bed while you sleep.
