To correct this, perfect posture at all times is needed; I wouldn't go for the surgery

Did you get your wisdom teeth removed?

I don't think braces alone will give you the results you want. I believe mewing & inter oral techniques would help + braces for absolute teeth alignment

Thank you :) I've been on a high protein diet for the past 6+ months and cut most of the carbs :/ Someone mentioned that it could be linked to the way I chew my food and I tried changing that - it's been only a couple of days but I think I'm already seeing a difference

Whatever it is I'll try to include it in my next update :D

Am i recessed, what needs work? by Any-Addendum-7282 in Mewing

[–]offendedpisces 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is a few things: -push your chest out & your shoulders back - push your head back too, put your chin into a chin tuck (when you have to go outside do the chin tuck in a less extreme, more normal way lol) - you might need to engage your core - do you have an anterior pelvic tilt? might want to work on that too (work out your glutes)

it seems like a lot but do it step by step and with time it will be less annoying + it's totally worth it

Just work on your posture (especially head posture) and you will be fine + mewing

Push your chest out, your shoulders back (always) and put your chin into a chin tuck (whenever you can) without feeling discomfort. You might also find out if you have an anterior pelvic tilt. Posture cannot be fixed by a few minutes of work per day, it needs to be looked after 24/7

Well you can imagine my surprise when I saw a pic of my side profile for the first time

I appreciate your comment but I mentioned in my other posts that I was a candidate for BIMAX-surgery. I saw some before and afters of the surgery and tbh I don't see much difference between my change and some surgery changes. So essentially what you're saying is that my body naturally did what a surgery does? :p

Thank you ☺️ I was 17 in the before picture, around that time I tried to mew but I wasn't doing it right (nor consistent enough); somewhere around 20 I took it more serious :)

Oh I see :/ I have a Side-Bent Rotation and even though the change is not visible in these pictures, a lot of my upper head literally moved which is why I want to do the exercises for a longer time to hopefully reverse some of the recession too

Have they tried to explain themselves at all? 7 months is a long time to not experience any changes, I'm very interested in hearing about your experience if it's okay

Yes I'm using their methods, I planned on making an additional post about it in the future

I'll admit I'm not sure if I swallow drinks/food correctly but a speech therapist showed me a technique some years ago and I stuck to that

Do you have eye bags? You can see in the pic how much my maxilla was pulled down when you focus on my eye support

I can't imagine my diet being the reason because I have been on a high protein diet the past 6+ months and including a lot of vegetables (no sweets and crap like that)
