Don't forget to do the chin tuck (pull your head back). I'm 36 years old. The first 6 months of tongue on the top palate didn't do a lot. When I realised I had to pull my head back at the same time as having the tongue up, I could instantly feel the pressure on my maxilla, and sometimes on the jaw. Significant changes have occurred in the few months since.

@@Orthotropics Yes so much more orthodontists should be properly educated and only practice orthodontics that is good for health. Right now it's so rare, I can't even find one in my country (The Netherlands) who can expand my maxilla non surgically for example.

[@fadjeja3141]

@@kittendivine1 Er is 1 in België "respire dental" in Melle vlakbij Gent. In Nederland zijn er enkele..."wijs met je neus" en als je in Google zoekt op holistische orthodontist vind je volgens mij nog een paar. Er is slechts 1 praktijk die met bioblocs werkt....Ik ben 37 jaar en ik ga binnenkort op consult bij een kaakchirurg die beweert dat buitenbeugels apneu kunnen veroorzaken, ik denk puur voor de erkenning. Sinds de buitenboordbeugel behandeling heb ik zoveel klachten..grillig slaappatroon, insomnia, depressies, last van mijn nek en rug, migraine aanvallen. Uiterlijk: long face syndrome, afgeplatte jukbeenderen, terugliggende kin.

[@kittendivine1]

@@fadjeja3141 Yes I know 'Wijs met je neus'. I didn't like their proposed treatment plan though: acrylic plate for the top dental arch and lower arch should follow naturally. I don't believe that. Also, they wanted to use the Myobrace to straighten the teeth and upright the lower molars. I don't believe that works either, especially not uprighting the molars, it's supersoft on the sides! Also, I want maxilla expansion. Mind you, maxilla expansion includes palatal expansion, but not all palatal expansion causes maxilla expansion! Or very little. Thanks for the tips. I will look op 'respire dental'. Which one works with biobloc just out of curiosity? And which jaw surgeon are you going to? I really want MARPE/MSE or SARPE. I just found out yesterday that they do MARPE in Radboud UMC Nijmegen! www.orthodontics.nl/userdata/document/Pati%C3%ABntinfo%20MARPE.pdf 'Sterkte!' Yes I surely believe headgear can cause harm. Unfortunately the dots are not being connected and so many things are seen as 'normal', because they are so common. But common doesn't mean healthy! Did you have a sleep study yet?

[@kittendivine1]

PS: I almost went to www.orthoeuregio.nl in Enschede/Hengelo. But it's too far for me to go there every month and from my understanding SARPE/MARPE/MSE are most effective for maxilla expansion. I'm not sure what they use there, but I don't think they do MARPE and the nearest MSE is in France. They said they sometimes have patients combine the treatment with surgery, so that makes it SARPE. But only in very narrow arches I think, maybe if you just prefer it, idk. The surgery is called buccal osteotomy. That's the one I see on a lot of Dutch jaw surgeon websites. I wouldn't want that one, because it makes so many cuts, that only a part of the maxilla is moving and not the whole maxilla+cheekbones.

I find the same results as Mike Mew, almost all adults expand with no difficulty, as long as the rate is appropriate.

[@ngocduynguyen4420]

Ed L wow cool. what about the cheek and chin? i want them growwing forward

[@elipskis1]

Cheek bones (Zygomatic arches) remodel also and become more visible, especially if you are developing the upper arch forward at the same time you expand. There are several ways to accomplish this, the key is keeping the force levels very light. As far as growing the chin forward, that's not what happens, you can translate and reposition the entire lower jaw forward by remodeling that mainly occurs at the jaw joints. You effectively bring the chin forward in this manner. Sometimes you need to reposition the lower teeth to maximize the esthetic effect for the chin.

[@matijakukec4731]

Ed L I learned the hard way that right rate of expanding is appropriate. I have abnormal growth and teeth crowding, but its better now, one tooth is half way out. Unfortunately I wasn't following my orthodontist suggestion and rotated with key not only one milimeter a week but sometimes 2 and now it broke. I'm 18 so kids listen to older people and respect them!

i had a tad assisted expander at age 24, i'm 25 now and had no problems with my palatal expansion treatment. my orthodontist told me there was always a chance it wouldn't work because of my age and they had only done this treatment on 17-19 year olds, but they felt that at 24 it wasn't worth denying me the option of trying conservatively rather than opting out for full blown double jaw surgery. I am forever grateful for this option because after 5 months with my expander i am now moving on to braces and there is a very VERY small chance i will need the jaw surgery they were talking about at my consultation. My case is relatively mild to some. I had a sever cross bite, but my teeth were always pretty straight so i could only imagine that if someone had both teeth problems and bite problems it could result in a different treatment. however, if jaw surgery is your "only option" i'd always try and find an ortho who is willing to do something like an adult expander and see what they have to say.

I’m 57 and had a tooth break. Right before quarantine. I alway felt like my bite was off..my old dentist let the techs do it :( ....and suddenly my bite is improved, my TMJ of 30 years is going away. Because of the quarantine and the dentist being closed, I had to wear tooth appliance longer until I could get the implant. I am witnessing so many changes which has now brought me here learning.

Sir uour daughter is so lucky to have a father like you. So many of my siblings, as well as I, were so happy as children only to grow up with many different kinds of health and even mental problems. Upon reflection, I believe that almost all of our problems can be traced ultimately to the orthodontic treatment we recieved. It makes me happy to hear that you felt that there was something wrong with the treatment recommended for your daughter and that you decided to follow your gut.

[@casscat7]

Thank you! You have just answered multiple of my questions that had been boggling me for a while! I do have a wise orthodontist, though he wasn't as good as you at seeing through what is possible with skeletal expansion, and thinks that I should get checked by a jaw surgen even though I'm in between greater chance of dental expansion and greater chance at skeletal expansion (according to my age). He has decided that he won't put them on, even though I know with a gut feeling that I will have a successful skeletal-expansion with expanders, even though my upper jaw will be a little more sore. You've got a lot of insight, and you have ways of proving things many are too cautious or afraid to do. And even adjust and fix what problems you may have caused, but it made it easier for you to do so. Since many orthdodontists like to adjust patients' teeths in a way that makes it easier for them to operate on. In your way, it actually brings benefit and decreases time and money for your patients whilsts also granting you higher payment and success. You're obviously very smart with a lot of experience. Props to you! ^^

I wish I would have heard this information 14 years ago. I had straight teeth and a beautiful smile my only issue was a posterior crossbite on both right and left that put me in an overjet. I was wearing down my cuspid and the bottom bilateral on the left side. The orthodontist told me because I was past the age of 20 (I was 24) he couldn't fix my bite unless he extracted 4 teeth. I didn't want to have 4 healthy teeth taken out. He also told me I could go to surgeon and have my palate "cracked" and I could get a expander but discouraged me from it by staying I would have nerve damage. Being naive I went with the extractions and have regretted it everyday of my life since I had the braces removed. I started having pain and facial disfiguration issues 1 year into braces and when.I would tell him he would tell me it was normal or would go away. After I would have the braces removed. I had to request the braces to be removed because after 2 years I can no longer take the excruciating pain. I can no longer sleep my tongue did not fit in my mouth and I was having a lot of facial muscle spasms. It was a nightmare end the worst thing that could have happened to my life. I was a young attractive woman with a beautiful smile which was ruined. I waited 14 years to get out of pain on my own because my teeth eventually started to move back and the space is starting opening which relieve my pain. Now I have to go back into braces for another 18 months to reverse with that original orthodontist did.

@Shristian Dunn I have narrow jaws, I got removed my premolar on the right side when I was a teenager by the dentist. Back then nobody knew what was that orthodontist where I am from. So she did it just like that, pulled it out. There was literally no space for this tooth and it had turned out into another color, it looked weird. After maybe a decade the same dentist was insisting on conventional braces on me, as in your case she wanted to remove more teeth. I did not agree of course, because she was a dentist. Then I started doing research on the net and found Damon braces. It took me a lot of time to save t the money needed for them :) Now it's been 10 months with Damon. But there is one little problem - I will never have centered bite from the middle (midline centring) because of this mistake, unless I agree on an implant. Which I don't want to but don't know what can happen to my jaw bones if I live like this; I need to research again. All of this was to say that I can relate to how you feel....But so happy that you found Damon method which I think is way better than the conventional ones especially for people with really really narrow jaws!

@Black Pill They are ignorant rather than evil. They believe what they read in texts books, so they could pass exams, there is no prerequisite for medical professionals to be wise or particularly intelligent. So, they stick, dogmatically, to what they learned in college because they aren't smart/confident/wise enough to learn anything new for themselves, and many of them are too busy pretending that they are cleverer than everyone who isn't a medical professional. Many of them are actually insecure as hell because they know that they haven't really changed much since they were a spotty teen at college. People like the Mews, ie. competent and genuinely clever and caring, scare the crap out of them, which is why they are so aggressive.

Dr. Mark Reichman of Vancouver performed upper and lower jaw surgery on myself in 1997 to fix a malocclusion . The operation left me with a torn palate, ripped through 3 layers of tissue in to my nasal cavity. He attempted to fix the damaged palate with two additional failed operations. The jaw surgery widening was excessive which caused the massive tear. He choose " free grafting" to attempt to seal the torn palate. The first attempt made the hole smaller, the second attempt failed and left extensive scar tissue. I consulted 4 other surgeons and decided to stop allowing him to experiment any further. I have had a plate covering the hole now for 15+ years. I rinse out my nasal cavity after each meal.

First of all, english isn't my language. Guys, this is surprisingly TRUE! I'm 26 yo, and I started mewing about three months ago, and i'm seeing legitimate result - it's not placebo/illusion. For those who are really interested in mewing, here is how I do it: 1- gently touch your upper lips and lower lips; 2- then make your upper and lower front teeth touch each other, gently equally, don't put pressure 3- now, position your tongue in the roof of your mouth, in a way that the tip don't touch the front teeth. The base portion of the tongue must stay in the "back roof" (soft palete) of the mouth. I'm seeing massive results, especially in the zygomatic bone. I don't have too much body fat, consequently it's more noticiable. I estimate I mew ~4 hours/day

Thank you for the valuable Information! It all sounds very logical and natural but there Is little Information about lower jaw expansion.I've read that It's not possible but I don't believe that. Perhaps the forces applied to the palate by the tongue can transfer through the closed mouth via the teeth and promote expansion In the lower jaw also.Rapid expanders would just push the teeth outwards but this method Is slow and that's what makes bone remodelling seem plausible.

[@ESLinsider]

What I don't get is that it looks like that these expanders just push the teeth outward. It seems like this tool would have it's affect on the easiest path which would probably be to push or tip the teeth outwards vs. cracking the bone on the top of the palate so that it expands.

Also I wear it every night when I sleep and 90% of the day. If I have it out for a few hours it does not fit so consistency is key. I have a short eating window everyday and that may be why perhaps I recover and heal quickly and can expand so much. Not sure.

I know that what he shares that he says you can do at home works. Had straight teeth but class 2 bite that was the slightest bit off center. Braces ruined my breathing and now seeing face feature damage. They forced maxillary back and now that stopped using retainer, lower front teeth a little crooked. So glad my dentist at time noticed had room for wisdom teeth and decided should let me keep them. Fast forward 25 years, and started mewing and noticed difference in cheekbones, jawline, and wisdom teeth (wish had taken before and after pictures, sorry in advance to those who are going to ask) that had never fully erupted started to erupt. One wisdom tooth had been halfway covered, still, with gum tissue overlapping over it and is almost completely out and uncovered. The wisdom teeth results have remained the rest with bones hasn't, sadly, which I hate because helped my breathing/constant congestion significantly. Bone results only remain when I can constantly, consciously mew with some pressure, which is impossible because I have to speak almost nonstop all day and focus on kids at work (teacher, on vacation had opportunity to test nonstop mewing for a short period). Anyway, all this to say, for those looking for hope and confirmation from someone else that adult movement is possible without moving your teeth in a way that gives false or negative results, its possible. Just wish could find orthotropic doctor who I can trust here in Los Angeles county area. Heck I'd travel further, and we do have some here, but haven't been able to find any who have had great results (faces look worse in after pictures, even when surgery used), or that will work with adults, or just plain seem sketchy. My tongue already goes to the right position and not a mouth breather, but now face got too crushed in from braces forcing face back that tongue just doesn't fit and get severe scalloping of tongue. Only breath well when hanging out with tongue sticking out 9mm, unfortunately. N e way, hope this helps someone and fingers-crossed helps Dr. Mew consider maybe working with adults a little more? Training other orthotropist around world to help us who aren't lucky enough to live near Dr. Mew?

Only thing is, when I protrude my jaw using my pterygoids, my jaw pops. I know that this is due to the fact that my condyles sit too far back in the glenoid fossa when I have full occlusion (probably due to mouth breathing growing up). Swallowing feels great, my teeth align like never before, and I don't feel pain, but I can tell that my TMJ discs are anteriorly displaced.

[@angelloveclc]

It all depend on your case. Long story, my underbite was almost corrected in October, but I started to have breathing difficulties (I suspected to be a result of teeth moving in so much). So my doctor reversed the process and my underbite is back now. I feel sad. I did not use an expander because I am 33 now and the doctor do not believe it will work for me. You should talk to several doctors and hear what they say. Make sure you communicate a lot with them with your expectations and make sure they understand them. You gender matters too, if you are a boy, you probably have not done growing yet, maybe there are somethings can be done. I am not a doctor, so I cannot give you any advice.

^ Same question here

[@cursedswordsman]

***** I have the E-Arch (aka the Arnold expander) in my mouth, which is not used as commonly because it's pretty slow. You would probably get the Rapid Palatal Expander if you got it done. I got my expander in July this year and have noticed some small improvement. I'm expected to get it off by July of next year. No pain at all. I had a bad lisp, but after 3 months, nobody could tell I had it in. It did, however, make my bite temporarily worse, because my teeth used to fold inside my bottom teeth and now they go right over them. It's produced a mild openbite, and I've been told that it will go away once my top teeth pass over my bottom teeth and link together again. Overall I would say it's a solid procedure, go for it. There really is no downside, any minor issues caused by the expander will be rectified with some alignment afterwards.

[@cursedswordsman]

***** "After watching this I'm hesitant to not use it" Why? Also, the expander is fine. It's slower than the RPE, but usually slower is better for the long term. I've gotten some huge expansion near the front of my mouth, where the springs are, but not so much near the back. I'm going to talk to my orthodontist about that next time I see him. I've had it for about 8 months at this point. I should also add that my expander is not the least bit uncomfortable. I have to admit it was horrible for about two weeks, but I got 100% use to it and forget it's there. Judging by the looks of the RPE, that might not be the case.

[@cursedswordsman]

***** Fixed. I've heard that and haven't got a gap in the slightest, probably because I don't have the RPE.

[@cursedswordsman]

Yeah. I had it out after a year and my palette was MUCH wider, big improvement. I'm hitting the 2 year point for invisalign now (it only takes so long for me because I have to correct my jaw alignment via rubberbands too).

In those pictures u cant see the incissor diastema, the only way u can expand the palatal bone is to breack the palatal suture using screwed bone apliance in andults, when the suture breaks it creates a diastema (dental gap), in the case u are showing there is no gap, in that case there could be an alveolar bone expansion wich tend to relaps without a palatal retainer type of appliance.

Hello! Did you get the chance to get an appointment with him? I'm almost 23 and it's also a question of life and death to me as I don't trust anyone else besides Mew. But I'm so upset he doesn't take in patients because I'd give all my money away just to get his help. I don't live in the UK either but I do have family located there do I'd stay there for as long as needed.

The face growth slows after age of twenty-six but is that fact set in stone? Is facial growth only linked to age or is something else in play? Would higher amount of growth hormones also activate faster growth of the cranium? An anecdotal observation is how the face changes when men get serious with lifting weights, like higher cheekbones and wider yaws. Lifting weight, and a high protein diet, is a great natural way to spur growth hormones and perhaps those extra hormones could help in adults as well?

What happens to your bite if you successfully expand your upper jaw? Wouldn't your upper jaw become too wide for your lower jaw?

[@sammylove14]

I am curious too. My bite is completely fine, just my front teeth are crowded so I hope my expander doesn’t mess with my bite.

[@Weenknds]

Yep! This happened to me. It’s assymetrical and it looks horrible. This device disfigured me

​@@Weenkndswhat happened with your lower jaw. How is it now? Didn't expand along with upper jaw overtime?

I have seen my sons face change since he’s has braces, & am looking for a specialist in Ontario that can help.
