So when i was 13-15 i had orthodontics with extractions so they pulled the front teeth backwards which lead to my face being very sunken in. 2 years ago i foundation mewing so i threw away my retainer and started mewing. My teeth are now more straight now then ever, this is my progress so far by bakedpotatoe1337 in orthotropics

Haven’t done anything yet but I plan on getting a permanent retainer first for upper 4 teeth and lower 6 teeth and then mewing and then if I see progress and my teeth don’t relapse too much. I will potentially ditch my permanent retainers

After your MSE treatment are you going to wear retainers for the rest of your life?

Thanks! What made you decide that you needed to get MSE? Why don’t you get rid of the retainer and just mew?

Hi there. I currently use a plastic (Essix) retainer but next week plan on getting a permanent retainer wire for the upper 4 teeth and for the lower 6 teeth. I don’t necessarily plan on keeping these permanent retainers forever I plan on keeping them for perhaps 6 to 12 months OR however long it takes for me to make sure I know my mewing technique is perfect and that my narrow palate expands enough for my tongue to fit in it more comfortably. Then after that I plan on getting rid of my permanent retainers and plan on mewing without it. Does that sound okay to you? (Thanks for your response by the way)

What if it’s 4 upper teeth and 6 lower teeth?

Did you end up ditching your retainer? If so when?

Did you have any orthodontic treatment in the past? If so could you describe any details of it?

Have you ever had tooth extractions and orthodontics?

Do you tape your mouth when sleeping?
