In the episode Mewing: How to Be More Attractive, Breathe Better and Live Longer | Dr. Mike Mew EP 180 and the clip Mewing and Facial Growth, Dr. Mike Mew discusses how mewing can influence facial structure.
Mewing is a technique that advocates placing the tongue against the roof of the mouth to promote proper jaw alignment and facial growth. Dr. Mew explains that this practice can lead to a more defined jawline, improved facial aesthetics, and even better breathing patterns. Proper tongue posture encourages optimal development of the maxilla (upper jaw), which can enhance the overall facial structure over time.
Additionally, mewing may contribute to changes in the shape of the face, particularly if maintained consistently during development; it is suggested to help prevent or mitigate certain misalignments due to inadequate oral posture. This can lead to a more desirable facial appearance and functional benefits like improved airway function.
