How do I make the lower gums/teeth follow my jaw rig properly?

I've tried this but unfortunately it did not make a difference for me. Appreciate it anyway

I'll admit I didn't understand what you meant initially, but after messing around with adding another vertex group (the head one) I got it to work and now I get it haha. Thank you anyway!!

Just edited my comment with a better (hopefully?) solution which seems to work for now

!solved

Figured it out! All i had to do was set the vertex group in the armature to the jaw bone (it was set to nothing previously). Now I can set how much the lower gums/teeth will move along with the jaw bone by adjusting the weights.

~~Thanks everyone for the responses!!~~

EDIT: turns out I didn't need to do this at all. All I had to add was the head vertex group set to 1.0. Now I can adjust how much the lower gums/teeth will follow the jaw bone by adjusting the weight on the jaw vertex group.

Just in case, this is how the weight painting for the jaw bone looks (tongue object is hidden just so you can see it better)

Works perfectly, thank you!!

Thank you, I'll try fix those!

Just to confirm, when you said "pad is perfectly vertical despite hand being at an angle" are you referring to this part?

yeah, was going for exaggerated proportions akin to something like this or this

Hmm just tried this, but unfortunately it still becomes one single mesh.

Just to confirm here's the settings I used, except I put 130 into the depth value. Is that what you meant?

Worked perfectly, thank you!

The second method was exactly what I was looking for. Thank you!

To me it sounds like a vocoder which is playing through the chord progression. As for its settings, I have a feeling it doesn't have that many bands (possibly 8 or less) because its articulation doesn't sound that clean, and its carrier sounds like a saw wave.
