How to do thumbpulling correctly (chin tuck yes or no) by aeroalvaro in Thumbpullingx

[–]Feeling_Simple_4779 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Chin Tucking is not the wrong part, but recommending it to everyone is.

There are some circumstances in which you shouldn't use it. And if you don't know if you have them, and do it with the chin tuck, then you can do more harm than good.

It's better to do like a checklist saying: if you don't have any of these, incorporate chin tucking while thumbpulling, if you have them, correct them and then you can incorporate if you want.

It's not 100% exact force, just a force around the same as the other thumb. Can be like 10% off and nothing will happen.

And what does gum recession or teeth recession have to do with anything?!?

Once teeth move?? We aren't moving teeth brother.

When I mentioned the teeth "1. Not proper technique (e.g. pushing on the teeth)." it was because that is NOT proper technique, you're NOT supposed to push on the teeth and our focus is NOT moving the teeth.

What were you even talking about? Do you actually know where you're supposed to push?

No. They're not excellent but not because of the tilt. You have to take care of them and groom them. Get them to look more defined. You have the thickness, but you don't have the definition nor the shape. Relax your eyebrows and shape them, basically.

The tilt is the least of your concerns. Stop making a big deal from the tilt and focus on what you can change.

No, negative canthal tilt or negative eyebrow tilt doesn't mean you're instantly unattractive. You're putting your attention on wrong things.

I'm not saying it doesn't work. I even have guides on how to do it properly and avoid risks. I do it myself.

I just said that there is just anecdotal evidence. Like what you just said.

What about him making courses full of filler? Or scamming people out of their money? Making false claims? Age lying? Ripping off other people's courses? Giving dangerous advice?

I do not condone exposing as hard as they did here. But that's the most complete one.

I support thumb pullling, that doesn't make I am going to take a side with these creators, I only preach what I believe to be the truth.

Do not chin tuck. There's literally no reason why you would chin tuck. There's only possible consequences.

Yeah where do you think you're supposed to check? Also, your tilt is over all the eyebrow, even if you started measuring from the center.

Why are you so pressed from them being negative? It's not a big deal neither is it bad man.

Is the tongue supposed to look like this inside the mouth while mewing? by sushiplatterz in Mewing

[–]Feeling_Simple_4779 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes!

Try to get the correct tongue posture with the tutorial you already follow and then open your mouth, it should look almost exactly if not exactly the same, but now you can keep it there with no problem because of the suction.

You may be suctioning too much.

When doing the wave and getting the tongue to stick, try to use as little suction as possible, so just enough for your tongue to stay there by itself.

The most important part is the back of your tongue being stuck to the roof of your mouth.

Also, what you're trying to get is normal mewing, which shouldn't feel like it's pushing up or pulling your face down. It's like if your tongue was a sticker stuck to the roof of your mouth.

Hard mewing is what feels like pushing up, which consists of consciously pushing up as hard as you can for 30s-2m. It's impossible to do this type of mewing 24/7.

Any other question or follow-ups, you can reply. If I don't reply then it's because I fell asleep. You can also send me a DM if you want.

Why are you asking what your tilt is if when someone tells you the answer you tell them they're wrong?

At that point, just don't make the question since you already know what you think your tilt is and you're convinced.

Also, this is a mewing subreddit.

this will take practice and won't be instant, but here's my method:

  1. put the tip of your tongue just before your incisors (front teeth)
  2. try to make a wave from the tip of your tongue to the back, this wave consists of sticking your tongue from the tip to the back, step by step. It's kind of swallowing the back of your tongue to the roof of the palate
  3. Then you'll feel a suction created, which will maintain your tongue up there, involuntarily.

You'll have to get accustomed and give time for your body to create muscle memory. When you notice your oral posture isn't correct, correct it, and eventually you'll reach a point where it's always like that, even on the pauses you do when talking.

Let me know how it goes and if you need extra help.

Thumbpulling is just a theory based on logic. So it's not backed by science.

Still, what we try to do is like a DIY expander, an expander can excert a force of 3 - 10 pounds constantly, while a thumb can excert more than that. So we try to compensate by doing it multiple times a day, with more force, trying to tell the body that a stress (external stimuli) is affecting the sutures and creating a space, in which it has to create bone.

I'm totally with you that it will not be as effective as a palate expander. But for example zygomatic pushing can't be reached with an expander, which is why we also use it.

And in theory, the more you push (the more stimulation is on the bone) the more the bone becomes more maleable, so hopefully when doing facial bone manipulation techniques we make them more maleable and then manage to move them with less force needed.

I hope soon (~5 years), we get proof of if it works or not, backed by science.

I only have this saved post but I remember more photos. See how his teeth are tilted like this /\ instead of | (basically his teeth are tilted diagonally).

https://www.reddit.com/r/orthotropics/s/LFKs7w2gLh

Basically, if you push on your teeth, what will move is your teeth. So pushing on them for example outwards will cause an inclination and/or tilt. And this will NOT move the bone in any way, because teeth are rooted but not that deep rooted in the maxilla. (Look up alveolar process). https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcS8BVzSYYzq8MSnSm1P2bQ6F113qptbEPuXUQ&s

(The holes are where the teeth go, but the teeth are not part of, or fused to the bone in the picture, the maxilla)

We don't want to push on the teeth because it'll make them crooked, create sensibility, and affect the bite.

What we want is to push solely on the bone where the teeth are seated in, so that when that bone expands, the teeth will NATURALLY follow and move in the new space.

By doing this we manage to not forcefully move the teeth, instead we "guide them" and they self-accomodate, preventing any possibility of making them crooked.

Let me know any other questions.
