For decades crooked teeth have been accepted as just bad luck - a genetic inevitability that often requires extractions and fixed braces. This is seen almost as a rite of passage for teenagers. However, there is increasing awareness that such treatment can exacerbate obstructive sleep apnoea and TMJ disorders, leaving people with a lifetime of health problems.
There is substantial evidence to suggest that crooked teeth are the result of poor facial growth and that modern lifestyle choices are playing a major part in preventing the good facial development needed to have room for a full set of adult teeth.
The realisation of what this means is revolutionary. Crooked teeth are preventable! Education has the power to transform our children’s lives.
If we can prevent crooked teeth from occurring, we can minimise their associated health problems and reduce the burden on the NHS. For a healthier and happier society, please support our campaign. We need your help to bring about this health revolution.
This channel is part of the International Association of Facial Growth Guidance. A nonprofit organisation which aims to raise awareness of alternative orthodontic methods and ideas, which too few people are informed of.
The main aim of the platform is to precipitate debate on why teeth are crooked. Most people are not aware that (in most cases) the dental profession has little or no idea why the teeth are crooked, or for that matter why children need major surgery. Clearly there are genetic issues, however the science is clear, the weight of quality research papers, in respected peer reviewed journals, show that our modern lifestyle is a more important factor and most importantly we can do something about this.
This is especially important as sleep apnoea, TMD, forward head posture and a most otolaryngology problems are implicated as other symptoms of the same underlying problem.

Orthotropics essential means straight or correct growth. If your faces grows well it tends to work well. The concept is based on the Tropic Premise; www.watkinsden...
The underlying pathology of malocclusion and the related symptoms is referred to as Craniofacial Dystrophy;

The association feels that it should be possible to prevent or at least minimise the level of craniofacial dystrophy through simple public health measures.

Yup. And he's not selling you a "kit".
It is in my opinion easy to see that Dr. Mew is a person, who is aware of his position and the opportunity to make change in this position.
I admire people who can see things like he does and break with his mind through the box of modern thinking, which is in many perspectives wrong.
I will definitely donate money for his intention.

Im not ugly but i just have undeveloped facial structure. Now i get it. Thanks
maybe im just weird asf but i actually personally prefer that to a square jawline...
Who says you're not ugly?😂
ahahaha 💕
I wish i had a penny for every time I heard an ugly person say that.

It's sad. Orthodontists are NOT going to let the research happen..
Adam Burg probably ´cause they get more money with braces & surgeries LOOOL
M Ervaa yep
There are some "Functional Orthondontist's" who do care about jaw alignment, correct bite, palette expansion, etc...the word "functional" is important to know when looking for an ortho.
Go to an orofacial myologist instead - can help with adults sleep apnoea and kids to prevent braces/crowded teeth. It's all about prevention :D . Even if treatment of crooked teeth is SHORTENED I think some myofunctional therapy is highly worthwhile due to the correlation of dental caries and orthodontic braces.
I feel like this is already known by some, I got braces a couple years ago, and my teeth went back to crooked. Years later (now) I want to the orthodontist and he told me its because of my tongue posture and gave me a device to correct my tongue

Don’t worry, all fixable! Just take it one step at a time 😊😌
they know from your anime avatar
I have a question, idk if anyone still reads this. But my tongue always rests on the roof of my mouth and I breath through my nose. Mouth rbeathing to me feels weird.
BUT when I sleep my mouth always falls open! why? Is this normal? I dont snore and I still nose breath while it falls open.
Mouth taping ( micro pore) tape across the lips prevents the mouth from opening during the night
@@Danny-ig6ik Mike Mutzel and interviewees of High intensity health on YT advise mouth taping at night.
If you look at people that are natural mewers, and look Beautiful, no one has tell them how to do it, they found out how to breath with most comfort, if you breathe trough your mouth at night, that means that you need to find better pose of toungue.
You can put your toungue at the roof of your mouth in 35 ways, only one will make you beautiful.
@@ac.a101 I am beautiful tho
@@RapunzelASMR of course you are❤️
Should be taught in primary and secondary schools when kids are still growing. Or at least info be given to parents. Hopefully your message would be spread asap.
I have a friend who fixed her underbite by consciously not biting down fully when she was about 9 years old. she cured her own underbite lol what a genius
francois bonbon wait but I thought biting down fully and clenching your teeth cured underbites? But she didn’t bite down fully and it cured her underbite? I don’t get it.
@Raigou 😂😂 cutie Chan
@Raigou Nah when you have resting face some peoples front teeth clash and theres pressure furthering underbite. Shes not talking about chewing food in any special way :DD
@@iSugarHeart As someone who was a mouth breather most of my life (resting tongue, open mouth, etc) I had a relatively bad underbite. I had braces for two years which got rid of it, which worked, but of course only for so long as I wear them and the following retainer. So I got rid of them and so far from all the advice I've heard on orthotropics it just seems like I'm gonna have to live with my underbite lol. Plus, isn't the clenched jaw, tongue-to-roof technique meant to fix overbites, not underbites?
@@dandyspacedandy Im not experting on mewing. However in theory if you keept your tongue in correct position in your mouth the rest of muscles on your neck and head must re-arrange with time. And any muscle can be trained even brain. Body is an amazing mechanism that if you say start boxing. at first punches hurt like bad but with time your body adapts and your skin grows thicker (not visually just tougher). All im saying is there are sceptical people who talk crap without trying. But the ones who try usually arent disappointed.
This guy is honest. He's really trying to help people and change the health industry. I have started following his advice and that of others with the same message and my health problems have started to reverse. A big LONG list of health issues. It's truly been life changing and I will forever be grateful.
I have been mewing since I was 15 (when I found this channel) and am 19 now. My face looks completely different, much better, I breathe better, my jawline is more prominent, and although I developed an overbite in childhood from mouth breathing and poor posture, I still am able have a healthy looking face today. The only thing is I have to chew with the overbite, I can't change my chew. And mewing has caused a bit of teeth grinding.
Well. .. Theres puberty too. Nobody at 19 looks like their 15 yr old self
You can change your chew though, by wearing braces and correcting your overbite.
yeah i have overbite as well
damn the symptoms he describes are literally my life. stuffed nose and crooked teeth and long face :(. i heard about mewing before thought it was like a scam until i hear the man himself speak LOL oops. i love his clear dedication towards improving public health and making it more accessible for everyone!!!
I'm so happy to be viewing, "non-mainstream" material! Thank you, Dr. Mew!!!
As a dental student, I'm so glad I came across this channel.
"Fixing things makes money, preventing things doesn't make money" What a quote 12:55
this is relevant for all health related areas. medical policy should never be influenced by commerce or profit, else we all pay the price. investing in prevention is key, rather than fixing things once its gone wrong
Yes and no. Be careful about doctors, but give more freedom to health insurers! The former profit if their customers are sick; the latter profit if their customers stay healthy. Capitalism optimizes very effectively, but only for the exact job you give it. Therefore, the flow of money should favor those whose interests align with the general public.
It's silly to blame capitalism when it's used in a nonsensical way. That's like watching someone smash a window with a hammer, and then blaming the hammer and calling for a ban on hammers.
VandroiyIII great point! and also, laws should be structured to direct capitalism in the right way, to distribute wealth in the right way etc.
damn i'm 26 why you make me sit through that to tell me i'm damned
😆
You made me laugh so much 😂😂
Yeah... he says that it's *EASY* up to 25, but possible to do it for your entire life.
You can fix it now. You just have to change your behavior comprehensively - it's just not going to be *easy*.
Right! 😥 I'm 27, he said that and I was like "ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!"
Matt Hargraves What exactly are all the behaviors that we should change? also he talks about proper oral posture but what exactly is that
Signed the petition!! Your knowledge has changed my face drastically through chewing more, palatal expansion, and proper tongue/oral posture! THANK YOU DR. MEW! 💗
Natalie Marie hi Natalie, how did you achieve palatal expansion? Did you have to wear an expander that splits the palate open over time? I hope you don't mind me asking, how old are you? I'm 32 and worried that I am too old for facial change and have had too many teeth removed.
Lilmisscostumedrama Hey, no you definetly still have time! Actually the device I used (and still use) widened my palate, fixes any malocclusion, and straightens your teeth. I highly recommend it, do some research on ‘myobrace’, theres 3 stages and it helps you place your tongue on the roof of your mouth. It was a game changer for me... I used to have a narrow smile, an overbite and recessed jaw and now my teeth are wider, I have a normal bite and they’re all straight. Each stage takes 6-8 months. I’m still on the second stage. Lmk if you have any other questions!
As someone who is very invested in their face, I value this type of information immensely.🌹
Thank you thank you thank you! Found you on Petersons podcast.. I am a 30 year old male, healthy and athletic and have sleep apnea… this is going to change my life. THANK YOU

I admire you doing this despite those who are not interested OR think you’re affecting the profession by giving preventive advice
I remember I saw a guy making a video about this,
That breathing with am open mouth makes your face go down
And I also remember that all of the comment section was like "he doesn't have real proof, there is no medical proof of that"
And now I see why, because like you said, preventing the problem doesn't earn money...
This is amazing how our world works, I hope people will see more of this and will learn to prevent the problem themselves. Thank you.
Just a man contributing in a healthy society without any greed of his own !! Respect 🙌
This all makes so much sense. I had felt naturally inclined to “solutions” like the ones you described, but I didn’t have any “evidence” or reason to go in that direction. It’s crazy how much we have to unlearn because of our society. I have always had terrible snoring, blocked airways, and had to mouth-breathe. I hated how my face sloped, and wasn’t beautiful pronounced. I wondered if there were anything in the world I could possibly do. I just decided to start trying to breathe through my nose primarily. I made the conscious effort to no longer mouth breathe. I can’t really control yet what I do while I sleep, but I make to effort while awake. Looking in the mirror the other day, I thought to myself that my facial structure looked evermore so pronounced, and less sloped. I thought that it must just be wishful thinking because “surely nose-breathing for the summer couldn’t have had that much of an effect”... This video confirms my hunch. How can I thank you enough for sharing this information and truly trying to help fellow people!! Please continue your work. It helps me to live an easier, more pleasant and, Lord-willing, longer life!
You are one of my highlights that I found in 2019, Mike Mew.
*Here is the answer... Eat Raw Vegetables and especially foods that make you use your jaw muscles. Eat Root Vegetables. Reduce your intake of Sugar significantly. *
Thank you so much sir! I did not know just how much tongue placement changes the face. I told my friends too, because it is such a small thing, but what a huge change it creates. Thank you again! 🙏

Dr. Mew hero of our century!!!
Hello 👋
American 🇺🇸 here , your videos are extremely educational, I’ve never seen these stories , very educational channel , thank you 😊
Oh. my. goodness! This makes so much sence! I will try this, and see if this helps me. Thank you soo much for this information, Dr. Mike Mew!
Phew, found this when I just turned 25! Right on the dot! Thank you sir!
Bless him to tell the world about that! I didn‘t know that.
very enlightening advice! not only are they profiting fron braces but the new epidemc of sleep apnea!
Thank you so much for sharing all the knowledge! I find it a very powerful sideeffect in case of depression, too.
This is excellent. I had healthy facial form when quite young but with years of poor tongue posture (tongue thrust) I developed very crooked teeth and altered my natural bone structure negatively. Everything you said is true - narrowing of the face, lengthening of jaw/chin, little definition of the outer U. I had to have orthodontia (twice) to correct my teeth but the bone structure remains. I am inspired to correct my tongue posture starting today and hopefully correct some of the damage. I will pass this information along. Please continue with your very important preventative research. The next generation of humans will thank you.
Mr. Doctor you are making some history over here
Wish you good luck👋
In our butter-baby world we want The magic pill with no personal effort. Now we are paying the consequences of our soft way of life. Comfort is pleasent but softens us to a point where our face starts to melt away. These scenarios are not even found in greek tragedies. This man is a man of truth!
Brilliant! God bless you doctor.
Wow that’s exactly what happened to me. One day I “woke up” as I looked in the mirror and felt like I couldn’t recognize me anymore. My teeth were crooked, my nose wasn’t shaped in the way it’s been before and my jawline dropped which was my biggest problem aesthetically. I even wanted to do surgery this year until I found out about mewing.

Aww man, why didn't I find this channel a few years ago??
I'm 27, missed my chance for the sexy jawline dammit.
Is 18 a good age to start?
No you didn't. Any age is a good age to start. Obviously younger is easier. But you can still fight this.
@@faramund9865 before 25 is the best age because skull is easier to fuse before 25 but changes are possible at any age.
You still have a chance. If you really want a good face you can do these things but MAKE SURE you do them safely and correctly and whatever you do, DON'T over do them or do them too hard.
Thumb pulling
Bone smashing
Jaw exercises for all parts of the jaw
Facial exercises to tighten jowels
Lots of chewing
Do these along with mewing and it should be effective at any age. But be extremely careful cuz it's really easy to damage your body with the first 2 if done wrong.
You did not miss your chance. You are not 80 years old. Mewing works any age.
One of the best videos on the internet.
Is it just me that think Dr Mew's mic would be good for doing ASMR?
i was thinking the same
literally as soon as he started talking I plugged my ear phones in lmao someone get one of those unintentional asmr channels^^
Lmao
@Lively Stones i like his tone of voice like hes saying important stuff makes you feel like you're unintentionally learning stuff ;DDD
I'm 21, been mewing for 24 hours now and I can already feel a difference. Spent my whole life with my tongue at the bottom of my mouth and only recently I googled "where should I put my tongue" because I was becoming really aware of my tongue (I know that sounds weird). My jaw already feels more aligned and my bottom jaw is almost moving upwards to meet my top jaw as opposed to the other way around before. my dad is a dentist btw and has never heard of this and thinks I'm crazy :PPPPP YAY 4 JAWz
How is it now?
How is it now?
Your dads a dentist and never heard of mewing? 🤦♀️ Show this video to your dad to save you the hassle of explaining why you look so much better hehe 😀
Does anybody felt the slight pain after mewing for literally just minutes? Lol i thibk i am doing it in a wrong way
@@aikeyel1916 lay down on the floor, push your head back and suck your tongue up. It shouldn't be to forced... That's where it should be, it took me a long time to figure it out
Wow I just learned about mouth vs. nasal breathing, and the importance of tongue position. Now I understand my long face lol. This is amazing. Thanks for explaining this.
Not kidding. Stumbled upon "mewing" (positioning the tongue on the roof of the mouth) and within 2 weeks I saw noticeable improvements and correct placement pretty much took care of my slight double chin in an instant. So.. here I am, trying to gather as much information on this topic as I can, because did not expect these results and especially not at this rate.
I feel like hay fever is another part like this, doctors always say "oh it's genetics, just take these meds to suppress the symtoms", while it's pretty clear from twin studies that it's not. They just want you to keep taking the meds and the fact that we don't know the cause is a benefit to them.
This hay fever blocks my nose and forces me to mouthbreathe. I'm now going to try to, despite this, force nosebreathing and keep my jaw shut and my tongue on my pallet. It's already hurting which means it's already changing. I hope I can keep this up and improve my breathing.
I also hope it is found out soon what is the cause of hay fever.
Big pharma and most doctors are NOT interested in curing people. A cured patient is a bad patient
I always wanted a longer face but this video makes me feel better about myself :)
Commenting to push this channel into people's recommends
the mans facial structure is enough to sell this for me
Ah, this video seems to have gotten some traction. Welcome new mewers. Spread the word. It seems that this domain is no longer 'underground', and it's good in this case.
What you’re saying makes sense and it’s surprising we don’t hear it super often.
I’m curious about something oddly specific I’ve heard floating around: can asymmetrical posture cause an asymmetrical face?
I’m a side sleeper and favor one side pretty consistently. I’m also a woman and cross my legs regularly when sitting - always crossing them the same way with the same leg over the other.
My face is also pretty noticeably asymmetrical. My smile and mouth most noticeably so. I can even “feel” the difference in muscle movement when it comes to my mouth. To a lesser extent, the muscles at the end of my eyes (like the muscles used when winking) are also somewhat asymmetrical. The one side of my face does “droop” a little bit. Not as dramatic as a stroke patient, but it’s a similar look I think.
So my question is: does me performing “asymmetrical” activities that favor one side over the other contribute to this?
I’m also suspect of pseudo-scientific claims, so I’m genuinely wondering if me doing these things caused my asymmetrical face or if I’m just seeing a connection that isn’t really there. It’s probably true that there are plenty of side-sleepers and leg-crossers that probably have more symmetrical faces than me. Maybe, maybe not. I don’t know.
I’d love if someone could respond and let me know if you have any knowledge/insight about this!
(Also, please don’t comment “Everyone has an asymmetrical face to some extent, a perfect face isn’t possible.” I’m not joking, my face is REALLY ACTUALLY very noticeably asymmetrical. Others have noticed it, it’s just really quite obvious. I don’t think it makes me less attractive, and I’m not necessarily insecure about it, but it would be satisfying to have some sort of answer as to why. Hope that makes sense.)
The first thing I thought about was that we all are to some extent assymetrical anyway, BUT also I recalled the teachers saying to us in primary & middle school that we should always wear backpacks for balanced weight distribution and to not misdevelop the spine. It was looked upon when someone decided to wear a bag (that shape / style like postmen did / do or sport bag).
i don’t think leg crossing can cause asymmetry but i’m pretty sure side sleeping can
I'm 56 and wish I and my family had known this when I was a child. Not only was it hard for me to quit sucking my thumb, causing some deformity in my upper palette, I suffered from very bad allergies that started in spring, and didn't let up until winter, so I spent most of my childhood with a stuffed up nose, just trying to breathe, which likely caused a lot of mouth breathing, especially at night. I developed cranial facial deformity. Had major jaw surgery in my late 20s to improve this. Rounds of expensive allergy shots also improved my breathing in my 20s, but again, it was too late. I'd still like to improve my sagging jaw line and will work on some things now, but it might be too late.
You are a wonderful human being
thanks so much. At the age of 45 I have taken up mewing. I'm realizing just how much I was breathing with my mouth. I used to have almost perfect teeth. I had wisdom teeth removed and was eating a lot of soft foods and my whole jawline changed. I hope this will at least help.
I actually realised this recently, my tongue in a neutral position tends to jutt out, I've become more self-conscious of this. My upper teeth even after I had braces years ago have gradually become misalligned and I wasnt sure why. I am so greatful for your insights!
I am currently working as a research project manager. I agree with every single thing you said. Prevention is better than cure. In a country that general medical treatment is provided by the government, budget is a big thing for the hospital and the care providers to consider. We are into increasing first line disease prevention as it does effectively reduce long term health cost. Support you!
Thank you. You make sense where orthodontics don't
Had to comment. From the bottom of my heart, thank you 🙏 I’ll definitely share the message 😉
He basically just called out the entire dental industry for sweeping real issues under the rug to make more money on braces/retainers. Really gross
My dentist tried to get me to pay for braces to fix an overbite that wasn’t that bad...they later told me I’d have to pay for jaw surgery which would include breaking my jaw to reposition it. I ended up managing to fix my overbite myself without any medical help. It’s sad that they will literally convince you the only thing that will help will cost you money.
Thank you so much for such important information!
Fascinating. Wow. I'm on board. I have done Invisalign... not sure if that's good or not. It's time to mew... Yes. Fixing things make money and preventing things doesn't make money. So true. So true with the medical profession not wanting to hear what's not the consensus. Amazing. This is so important. I fell upon this tonight. I feel lucky.
I wonder how much the change over time has been affected by the decrease in societal emphasis on good posture. I’d be really interested to see whether professional ballerinas have a lower incidence of craniofacial dystrophy than the general population.
Protect this Doctor! We are aware now and I believe that "we can gain an upswing in all people" too. "Mewing," the thing I did to close my gap as a child has a name. Bones, muscle, passion; this is hope.
I encourage my niece to always dance or sing because it will naturally make them healthy and beautiful. But for my generation I am happy to be informed that there is still hope. I had braces in my twenties but unfortunately I also have asthma. I am not pleased with my jawline and I worry if my facial features will go down and affect my breathing. Your advocacy will definitely help a lot of people.
Hi, My name is Gabriel, I'm 26 and from my 12 years I started to do martial arts as a form to correct posture and breathing .... I have asthmatic bronchitis, or something like that (its difficult to translate, portuguese is my native language).
I snore, and have lots of problems corelated to breath. So, I started to do yoga to correct my posture, and start doing some exercices to close (literally) my mouth (it was in bad shape because of the years by mouth breathing), by looking for exercises and contents like this, I ended here, and I'm in love with this content and its application. It was what I was looking for: a link between the whole posture, and breathing / face structure.
Thank you very much. I appreciate your job very much.
Why is this the first time I am hearing about any of this… this is insane!
so happy i found u
The fact that people hold their tongues on the bottom of their mouth is mind blowing to me. I had to try it and my bottom jaw extended forward. My youngest daughter has a bad underbite, I was planning on getting her braces next year but we will try mewing first.
AMAZING answer to my question about why Im not breathing
I’m 33. May be to late for me to try this but I’m going to give it a go! My teeth were actually pretty straight until my early-mid 20’s. Now they were getting worse and worse and I ended up getting Invisalign a couple of years ago. Nearly done, just ten more weeks to go. It took me a few tries to find a orthodontist that didn’t tell me that I had to pull four perfectly healthy teeth and my two impacted upper wisdom teeth (no lower). I refused to do it, and after trying for a third time at a different orthodontist they didn’t see a reason to pull teeth at all. I have noticed my face slightly changing (to be expected), but I’m interested in trying this method to see if I can push things in an even more positive direction. Will update at the end of this year if I notice any changes!
when someone speaks the truth, idiots cant hear. Its why people in history have had to stand alone to make change. Ive been saying this for years but never seen any medical professional talk about til this video. Thank the lord.
You changed my life....thanx DOCTOR
Some rich guy should probably fund a Super Bowl commercial or something that would raise awareness.
when i was a kid my orthodontist told my mom he wouldnt work on my teeth until i started on allergy shots. my allergies were horrible (allergic to something like 49 out of 55 things tested for) and in turn made me a mouth breather. i needed a palatial expander. he told us that if he did all this work on me but we never fixed the allergies, my teeth would go back eventually. fast forward 30 years, i've stopped allergy shots for a few decades now and low and behold my bottom teeth are crooked again! no where near where i was as a child but wow
Voice is calming
I could cry. I've lost so many teeth, palette expander, braces for two years, lost over 8 teeth. My jaw is crooked, I can't bite right, my life is ruined and I'm extremely poor so I doubt I'd ever be able to afford the surgery (breaking of my jaw) to fix it. I'll try this. I'll try anything. Thank you.
I appreciate what you are doing so much. Thank you
Thank you Dr Mew. I am going to change my future with your knowledge
I'm upset that people in your profession are NOT listening. I am a woman who should look quite different than I do. My face shape, and that of my sister's, should be quite different. I knew she had something abnormal going on, but I didn't realize I did until I read the work of Weston A. Price. Then I realized my diet had affected my teeth and my airway. I have a nose that is hard to breathe through. I was a mouth breather and try hard not to be now by using a lot of essential oils to keep my airway clear. I do have sleep apnea. I had crooked teeth. I have TMJ. I had a dental appliance to thrust my bottom teeth forward so that I can breathe at night. I don't know if it is connected, but I have fibromyalgia (with horrible neck and back problems). This science needs to go forward. I'd certainly be willing to be involved.
I have never watched a video where someone speaks so slowly. Even 2x speed was slow

Dr. Mew is to orthodontists what Dr. Bates was to opthalmologists. A selfless yet castigated hero.
You are our saviour.
Listen to this at 1,25x! Thank me later

Im gonna try this!! When i was little, my face was sort of square, oval and now at 18 its like an oval and long and not as square
I have underbite i start mewing 2 month ago after watching this video and my tooth bite almost normal thankyou its work 😁

One of the most interesting random videos suggested to me. It makes total sense...and it has ongoing effects on health, sleep apnea is supposed to increase blood pressure.. A more cruchy diet (not crisps!!!), an almost cave man diet tones the muscles in the face as he says but also it's a better diet! at the end of the day cancer loves sugary foods....Im really intersted in something called Paleopathology, which looks at ancient diseases and viruses..Ive always wanted to know if our ancestors got cancer like we do.
I breastfed my first til he was 23 months (was pregnant with number 2) and he was given solids at 6 months via Baby led weaning, he is now 10 and has an appointment with an orthodontist because he has crowded teeth. My second was breastfed until 3 yrs 4 months (solids introduced as previous) but since birth he has struggled with breathing through his nose. His father, uncle & father in law all seem to have the same kind of issue and had operations to try and widen the passage. They speak with a "blocked up nose" kind of voice. The issue now is the second child has had 2 operations, one to reduce the adenoids (didnt help, questioned why when there were no symptoms of adenoid issues) second operation was to "reduce them more" and remove tonsils... again, asked why since they hadn't been causing issues. Doctor came to me after the operation and said he didnt know why they were to do the operation since the issue wasn't with those, it was the nasal passage that was too small. We saw the next doctor and he said his nasal conchas were enlarged and gave a spray to try reduce them. It made very little difference.
We are now waiting for another appointment since his mouth breathing during waking hours has gotten worse and I can see his face shape changing (he's about to turn 8 and I've been on to the doctors since 1.5/2yrs old). Weirdly, he doesn't snore or have any issues breathing at night!
