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.

Gratitude👍 dr mew and mike sir you are save many people life who thought we didn't change their week jaws and spend money surgery etc 😀
Wish I had been taught this when I was still a kid and growing
What a charming and knowledgeable man.
Mewing has been the best anti ageing thing I’ve ever done, it’s given me back my jaw line and has straightened teeth that braces never could. Thank you 😊 I’m almost 50 and it’s worked for me.

This is the first ever comment I've made like this.
If I had not mentioned UA-cam, it would imply all the internet. Yet, that's a UA-cam channel. Did you think about that?
Yeah, that's why I decided to say "On UA-cam".
People..if you doubt this person. Let me make it clear. Its been one year that iam following his advice through this channel.
I am 22 years old now and started mewing and chewing hard a year back. I had breathing problem including nasal polyps that lead me to breathe through mouth occasionally. 6 months into starting mewing i noticed nothing much. But when a friend from my school days met me a few months back he told me "your face looks different" . Its then i noticed. My jaw line has developed and my face is much defined . I can feel my cheekbones as if they has come forward...not much but still noticeable.
Trust me this works but dont expect any rapid change , it takes time.
Just get a homeoblock and youll have much faster results
With permanent retainers i'm fucked up, i can't have any progress. I hate this life
@@blackpilled7714 I got my retainers off with pliers 😂😂😂 been 2-3 years my teeth are fine, as I keep keeping my tongue posture right

To anyone that practices Mewing or any other concepts presented by Dr. Mew - please take before and after photos with the same lighting and angle, as well as dates. Not only is it motivational for anyone wishing to implement these practices in their daily lives, but they collectively become evidence in an area where research is lacking.
research is not lacking, whats lacking is attention
And use grid lines...
I have been mewing properly (my tongue was always resting at the roof of my mouth since I don't remember, but not all the way) and I also did other non-mew techniques, my main goal was to give my lower eyes some support... first thing I've noticed that my roommates said I stopped snoring.
So, I can't wrap my mind around how this info is controversial if something as simple as one's tongue placement affects something as crucial as their sleeping quality.
Have your eyes developed any better?
Yeah!
John Mew dropping knowledge. This was the kindest diss track of all time but he ate those other appliances apart. Mewing movement!
🤣🤣🤣
May you live longer and good health
World needs your acomplishments to be widely known!
I owe so much to you guys, I started Mewing in 2018, at the time I was extremely unhappy with how my face looked, my jaw was undefined, my face looked average. Now my jawline is much stronger and much better than it used to be, now I'm approached by girls rather than having to approach girls like I used to. I can't begin to thank you enough.
Honestly i don't know nothing about this. Can you tell me how you did it.
What age were you when you started mewing
@@konosekaijiyu4275 Around 15-16 years old, and it was more like 2019, my bad, typo.
EUREKA EUREKA ! In addition to why I needed braces... I always wondered why women from old hollywood had these square jaws... our tastes didn't change; our faces did. Of course - god bless you and your family for the sacrifices you have all made in service of the truth. Thank you; thank you.

Thank you sir! 🙏🏼

All my respects to Dr. Mew
Hi is brilliant❤
I'm looking into getting a palette expansion so I took these notes:
- Professor John Mew Palette Expansion Lecture Notes -
Good ones:
- Biobloc Stage 1 or BB1 ★ (best in the world made by Professor John Mew himself)
* Causes no scarring by allowing for new bone growth on the palette
* No damage to periodontal membranes (1/8 mm per day or more will cause damage)
* Slow and gentle @ 1/16 mm per day
* Requires no surgery
* No springs or TADs (they do a poor job and cause damage)
* Allows space for mewing
* Growth is stable and further expansion after usage is possible (must mew)
* Works on adults and gives at least 5-10 mm of additional width
* Generally operates with good orthodontic practice in mind and significantly boosts facial attractiveness
- AGGA (acceptable knockoff of the former)
- ALF (also effective & gentle all-wire system)
Bad ones: (avoid at all costs)
- DNA*
- Homeobloc*
- NAC**
- MARPE**
- RPE**
* really bad spring-based knockoffs of BB1
** might as well just safe money and use vice grips or something
What makes a good palette expander?
* Slow and gentle, especially on the periodontal membranes ("semi-rapid" 1/16 mm per day expansion)
* Doesn't cause damage to the suture along the palette
* No springs, (especially on the individual teeth), TADs, or surgical assistance
greatly appreciated for making these notes public!
@@mathguy9357 no problem bro
why not marphe?, in Mexico it is the only one metod of expansion for adults
@@sgke_ idk bro never heard of it. I'm just a regular guy if you got the wrong impression
SO very informative! thank you
Thank you a lot for your videos:)
John Mew is Legend!
Love this
Bro you’re so smart it’s crazy
11:06 I had something like that, it made me stop putting my tongue on the palate because there was no space left.
This was a Jaw Dropping Video
Commenting so that mike and john mew can make some money
I'm the 600 like of the vídeo, i think that You re truly SCIENTIST, instead of just getting all What the books says without making questions and investigations You study the whole phenomenon on a hollistic way.
GENIUS!!!
I wish this video had more views
We are living in a pivotal times and there are so many opportunities for entrepreneurs who invest in reinventing low tech items such as household waste and learn sustainability . I have never comprehend how much a bunch of numbers floating around the spreadsheet can sustain human Life or soul. What will people eat when the food supply stops?
I wanted to invest more in Crypto but I got caught up in the dip so bad so I had to dump
What are you talking about specifically? This doesn't seem mewing relates at all, haha.
Another banger!!!
Let’s gooo!!!
Thank you so much for this information Dr. I need palatial expansion and I want to use your bio block technique.
I wish you guys lived in Chicago!
Chicago is a big city, you should be able to find a few dentists who use orthotropic principles. I'm going through palatal and mandibular expansion in L.A. There were at least 5 people in the area who are familiar with the devices. Good health!
Booho yall great I live in greece 💀 Good luck
Love love love
Here we have 15 mins of Hard Mewing 😊😊😊
yass bro
Watchiing mewing videos always make me mew better
John mew said he doesn't reccomend hard mewing
@@HtheKing what is hard mewing?
I have had experience using the upper DNA appliance. It has resulted in expansion which has (obviously) been helpful and the good thing is that it's a removable appliance, however I would be interested to know how much damage may have been done to my roots from having the pressure placed on teeth by the springs for a prolonged period. When I had an x-ray after completing the initial treatment (I am now in braces to fix a cant from prior orthodontics) my dentist could not identify any damage from the DNA appliance, but we did notice minor root resorption in a lower premolar likely from prior orthodontics.
Any updates? U think it's good after all?
@@iancacace2829 My breathing has definitely improved as there's more space in my mouth, but I can't be 100% sure yet as I'm still in braces currently
@@jaredt8526 thanks! And what about teth root damage?
Can you make a more detailed video on the homeoblock compared to your appliance?
in addition to following the Mews' advice, you could do intraoral techniques to speed up results
Can you explain?
My son is using a palatal expander to help with his cross bite.
Dude he's like 90+ and still can talk like this and do these things...
Yeah anyone who's older than 90 can talk
What did u think?
U think people above 90 can barely talk?
@@pillow1557 He's referring to how articulate this gentleman is. My 90+ year old grandpa has a much harder time articulating himself due to his age, so it's remarkable to see this man's clarity in speech at such an age. Hope this helped :)
@Erik B
Yes I got it thank you
jaw dropping knowledge (more like jaw forwarding knowledge)
hahaahha
Do you think there could be minor neurological damage in addition to the modern diet effecting the lack of tongue posture, that may cause a dis coordination in the muscles used? Given our exposure to such toxins in food, air, water, and other materials/medical treatments, etc.
Yeah baby!
Where can you get the bio block from?
After wearing braces for over seven years and going through abominations of construction this is honestly very frustrating to watch... The knowledge is and was already there...
Where can I get these types of expander?
I’m 15 I’ve been mewing for almost 2 years now, I went to an orthodontist a while ago because of the pain in my jaw turn out my wisdom teeth had no space to grow into so they started to push against the other teeth, here’s the thing so if mewing would make more spacer for my wisdom teeth what will happen to the gap between my two front upper teeth??
I find it very hard to mew because i have a slight overbite. Any tips?
My (25) lower jaw is positioned 0,7mm behind my upper jaw (overjet). Therefore when I'm mewing, I'm moving my lower jaw to the normal position. Do you think you shouldn't do this and mewing will fix the problem itself or pretend that your lower jaw is positioned more foward and that will help to get to the position as you're getting used to it? Or do both, but not at the same time? Thanks for your help.
I've got the same problem and have the same question
After 2 years and a half I have seen no changes, I’m 20 right now. At the first months I thoughtI was seeing some changes, but it was just a placebo effect, and recently after looking at pictures that I took daily there has been no changes.
Too old
Ur not doing it correctly
@@angusmcbean752 not too old. you can gain skeletal changes at any age
@@ImaDoWatIWant Agreed
I’m 17 and a half and I have a reasonably developed jawline and naturally good cheekbones. My face is still recessed because I think my square look came from chewing gum the last few years.
Anyways, I was wondering will mewing help me considering I’m 17 and will I see all the perks of it
Yes sure it works
Hi, i have a doubt. I used to wear braces for my overbite. I was advised to wear retainers for 6 months. When i stopped using retainer, i feel like my overbite is coming back. I have been mewing for sometime now and i wonder if it will improve my overbite. Will it help my teeth to stay in place?.
"When you widen a maxilla you gain 1mm of extra space for each millimeter you widen but when you lengthen the maxilla you gain 2mm of space each side as for every 1mm as you push the upper incisors forward.
Very Interesting. I wish more orthodontists at least researched Orthotropics
I have an issue and I'm wondering if anyone in the mewing community could help me or steer me in a direction to find more information on this. My maxillary canine on my left side grew in the wrong place, in front of my second premolar. Because of that my deciduous canine never fell out. I've been given an expander by my orthodontist to see where those teeth may move with expansion, but I've been told that most likely I will have to have both my deciduous and permanent canine removed and a fake canine in its place. I would like to keep my permanent canine if possible but I don't know how it would be possible to move it into it's correct spot considering the first premolar is in between. Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated!
Dear anyone who read this. We all know that Dr Mew said that extraction was bad for jaw. But what if I don’t want to get it removed but it hurts and damaging other teeth? My lower jaw is small and I don’t think it’ll wider soon
i am expanding using the homeoblock and it is incredible! Very comfortable and effective
How old are you? I’m 20 I don’t know if any of these things could work
@@SG-pd9mf 33 haha
Don't believe the nonsense of it being fused. Gradual intermittent pressure can expand your palate. Im proof. When I expand fully to what our ancestors intermolar width used to be- high 40s ealy 50s im post before and after in reddit.
@@David-fv2hj omg and I’ve heard it can help you to have a symmetrical face ? I’m panicking bc my orthodontist wants to extract 6 tooth plus they already extracted one molar. But I suffer from sleep apnea and I can see my jaw is too narrow that’s what causes crowding but I can’t find a doctor who even knows this device :( in ny
And they already put braces on which is correcting the crowding at the bottom but I’m more asymmetrical now since they’re pushing the teeth to one side
Hey I've finally able to touch my palate with my tongue 👅...im so happy....and my jawline changed drastically after 6 months....but I've also wounded my palate i don't know how it happened also not sure what happend...any suggestions?
Genius.
I'm starting
After year plz remind me share my results
Let's see
Please talk about bone loss and gap teeth. This is my biggest insecurity. Ive talked to many specialist and they dont want to do anything with it until it will fall off. But I cant live the rest of my life with gap teeth...I dont know what to do :(
what about invisalign for expansion?
Sir it's really important for me to know that why my molar teeth are aching so much i can't even chew hard substance this starts 2 weeks after mewing.
Molars should be in light contact only for 6 hours a day and no more
Hey I have a question I recently stopped using my retainers at night and my two front teeth on top are just separating a little The reason why I stopped using my retainers is because I believe that if I keep using them I will not be able to expand my palate it is narrow and I want to expand it but my two front teeth are kind of separating what should I do?
Where do I need to go in my country in order to get Bioblock expander?
Really hoping Mike can see this so I have been mouth breathing until now and I just turned 14 like 2 months ago and was wondering if I can still correct my face with mewing? Please see this
Yes my bro you can
Does anyone know how you should rest your teeth when mewing with an underbite??
your back teeth should gently rest on top of each other not clenching because that might lead to tmj
my mouth is larger on the right side and when i'm mewing my tongue moves and pressures left side more. will this be a problem?
can someone please summarize this lecture to me. what type of expansion should we go for as adults?
Can root resorption reverse?
No
Hi, just wanted to ask whether I should continue mewing as I've done braces about 2 years ago and am currently wearing retainers every night when I go to bed. I tried to mew in the day and sleep with retainers in the night but my teeth would kind of hurt and feel a little loose. I read up on various forums that mewing and wearing retainers is basically doing 2 opposite things (mewing is trying to expand and using retainer is holding the current position in place and does not allow expanding) and it would hurt my teeth in the long run without any improvements.
Im just gna like and comment so someone can help you lol
@@AintChillGuy Thanks :) Still waiting haha
I’m on the same boat as you. Would like to hear advice on this
I'm no professional but I think it would only make sense to stop wearing the thing that's preventing you from making mewing progress!
stop wearing your retainer non-permanent if you mew. It will loosen your teeth because mewing causes expansion and your retainer is keeping it there. This causes a back and forth with your teeth and will eventually cause it to fall out. mewing and correct swallowing will keep your teeth straight it might cause some gaps though. I think gaps are better than having a recessed face though.
how can I get the biobloc appliance?
Go to England I guess or visit their website to find a clinic near you
3:30 Maxilla Widen 😊
Anyone been able to make changes with a narrow palate as an adult?
How do we even get the device? Do we ask an orthodontist?
hi doc, i have a question: is there any relation between orthotropic and rhotacism?
No.
Can you still benefit from this if you’ve had braces and now have to wear retainers?
Does your appliance have a unilateral bite block to fix an asymmetrical face?
HEY were is the the new video of yesterday
Can a deviated septum make the nose to become flatter and more bulbous?
can you expand with MSE at semi rapid rate ?
I got braces on just yesterday idk what to do they told I don't need expansion but im worried the braces with make me narrow cause I had a bad habit of chewing my cheeks I stopped months ago and naturally keep my tongue on my palate i couldn't tell if my face got worse of better but now I got braces idk what to do guys help what do I do???? Dr.john please help, I'm 17 should I stop my orthotreament plus my teeth hurt I'm not sure it's probably killing cells.
I have a question
I am a person who writes and reads books everyday
Is it safe for me to mew or chew while doing it because I will be bending my head down or will there be any problems?
when you read you should hold your book up at eye level. and continue to mew.
The medieval people angled their books!

Jaw follows the upper

@@Zezzwar so, when the upper jaw expands, (as in when you mew, expand the palate) the lower jaw adjusts to it.

Hi I am in the UK, only get biobloc in one region??
Hey dr Mew, I have question hope you can answere. I have been mewing for 2 weeks now i feel that My Front teeth are moving forward as something is putting pressure on them. Even though my tip of tounge doesn't touch them. Is it because of maxilla become wide or something different. Help plz or should i stop Mewing
Hey doctor mike i have a question for you so i’ve been mewing for a year and half and thanks to it i don’t have an under bite anymore and i have a cheekbone but the problem is that i only have one,on my right cheek why does that happened?it’s not genetics cause none of my parents have cheekbones neither my grandparents or anyone else from my family so it ain’t genetics
I'm curious to know, would mewing affect my overbite? Make it better in any way?
Hey, I have an overbite too and i dont have the exact answer either. I noticed theres a bit of people that have improved their overbite with mewing and some people worsened it so its kinda mixed. I remember Mike Mew saying fixing an overbite with mewing alone is a very hard thing to do. I think what you can try though is making sure you perfect your posture before you start mewing, which means getting rid of forward head posture and having good neck and back posture, and a good way to practice that is by doing the chin tuck exercise which you can find on the orthotropics channel. I believe if you have forward head posture it could end up making your overbite stick out further if you mew with it so i definitely would advice working on posture first. Another thing is to find the reason to what could be causing your overbite. I noticed when I wake up every morning my top front teeth hurt so before i sleep i been practicing keeping my tongue back and its been working, I also notice when i drink food or swallow my tongue naturally pushes my top front teeth so I'm working on that too, so defintely try and see if you have bad habits like that as well. Another thing is when you start to mew, i believe (not 100% certain) you should keep your tongue behind the rigid part of your palate. I think I remember Mike Mew saying your tongue should be behind it, and it does make sence to me cause thats where people would probably place their tongues if they didn't have an overbite. I plan to try all of this as well once I get better posture. Sorry for the lengthy post, I hope it helps in some way, good luck.
