[@derpmonn]

No wonder this man has so much knowledge. He is made of books.

[@asgardcreator3132]

No need for appliances, I expanded my palate from 6 teeth when smilling to 10 and a half teeth after the age of 21, all while mouth breathing during the night, because of leaky gut. The tongue, together with the masseters are very powerful. And there's hope for everyone, any age. Correct "Mewing" or tongue posture, with regular mckenzie chin tucking+ inter oral face pulling and especially on a raw diet, corrects nearly any maloclussion. Eating raw meat keeps the Growth hormone levels as high, as when an individual was a child.

[@DrkstrX]

Teach me your ways. No literally. I am going to start mewing, chin tucking, and inter oral face pulling. I want to document everything to show evidence that this is physically possible. I just need some sort of guidance and support.

Dr Mew thank you for this video. What are your thoughts on the VIvos appliance? And the Myobrace system. As i understand Vivos works on both the upper and lower and the rate of expansion can be adjusted to be very slow to allow for new growth. When combined with Myofunctional exercises, Myomunchee and bodywork/posture/functional work.

[@eb4676]

I’m 29 and she does orthotropic as well but didn’t think Biobloc was right for me. I have traditional expanders. What are your thoughts on traditional expanders.

[@hennachaudhry9255]

What about the Alf appliance? Does that not work by expanding using spring force? But at the same time aligning the cranial bones to correct any facial asymmetry? Also it works gently, it is not rapid expansion, it does not expand by breaking the palatal suture, but instead expands the palatal bone. Different expansion methods maybe suited to different needs. What are your thoughts Dr Mew on this?

[@koanzx1]

yea i'm interested to know about the alf appliance also as it is what i'm working with currently. I gained quite some space on my upper palate, however my right upper jaw is now a little bit too wide for my lower jaw, and I was wondering if and if yes, when, will my lower jaw follow the upper ?

is palatal expansion faster than mewing

[@NJShadow]

Pretty much, yeah. Going through MSE now, and the results are pretty darn rapid.

[@Jeffersonokay]

@@NJShadowhow will you maintain the results after the mse appliance is removed?

[@NJShadow]

@@Jeffersonokay While I'm not yet at that step, my understanding is that the arms will be removed once the expansion is done, with the screws/expander left in, in order for the new bone growth to take place and set. My guess is it'll probably stay in even once I get the braces to ensure it sets properly. Once the bone properly sets, that's the point at which it'll be removed.

[@Jeffersonokay]

@@NJShadow I guess my question is when the bone sets and there are no appliances in your mouth, what maintains the palate width? Wouldn’t the palate have the tendency to narrow with no appliance help? Thanks in advance.

[@NJShadow]

@@Jeffersonokay I'm definitely speaking out of my lane here, but I think re-narrowing is more possible if the expansion was purely tooth-related, without actual new bone forming, as opposed to MSE helping to create new bone that shouldn't be going anywhere, especially with proper tongue posture. I did have Invisalign prior to this, and when I look at the start, finish, and current, I did notice some slight re-narrowing of things. It's possible that Ron from Jawhacks may go more into this, but yeah, I think re-narrowing should be of minimal concern when it's a bone-born appliance, followed with correct tongue posture.

@@Karmik_bhavya That might be a wise approach, but make sure you open the screw at the correct rate every day and that the appliance is really firm. If you can click it up and down with your tongue it will not work and it MUST clip on to a middle not a back tooth. Prof John Mew.

[@amandinefabian]

What's the point of expanding a person that owns a narrow palate. Won't it just relapse? If their palate is narrow it's proof that they aren't using their muscles correctly and haven't had good posture throughout their lives. What I'm trying to say is that even though they have the space, won't the person just be likely to fuck their face up even more now that there's more space and the incorrect uses of their tongue etc isn't used to it. Same with kids no? I'm 19 and I thought if I expanded my palate on the more narrow side of my asymmetrical palate that I'd be able to mew. But fact is If I cant mew now, I'm not gonna be able to later either. For me personally - it's impossible. Guess that's just because of my occlusion. Deepbite or whatever. Impossible.

[@CelindaBelle]

There are retainers you can wear ex once per week after treatments and apparently that's enough to keep the expansion if you're worried about relapse. I'm currently doing expansion with a schwarz and crozat. I'm not sure if I would relapse but I would still wear the retainer just to be safe and a lot of hi clients years after are still doing great. From there id say look into a myofunctional therapist to help with tongue position or assess if you have a tongue tie. Hope that helps 🙂

[@kaseyyrenae]

@@CelindaBelle i have 32 intermolar. id like to think i could get good change with my tongue and posture alone without having to spend on an appliance... confused because many say the toothborne appliances are not good for adults, like ron ead said. also i likely have tmj and my jaw maybe too far back but do i really need to spend money on an orthotic? can i fix this stuff with myo therpy and tongue revision alone, i have a posterior tongue tie ....

[@CelindaBelle]

@@kaseyyrenae I understand and I tried to hope the same before too. But I rly didn't have space for my tongue and once everything started to expand, my tongue started to reach the top so much more easily. I rly don't think I would have been able to make any changes without the appliances. It's worth seeing a tongue tie specialist for them to see if you actually have space to begin with to release the tongue and go from there. If there's no space for the tongue, then expansion is important, but if you get the tongue tie released and you have sufficient space, you might be able to get some benefits. But on the contrary, if you really sit tongue tie and you aren't able to reach the pallet properly, still you could just create another problem. That's why my tongue tie specialist advise me to do the expansion for us before considering a release. Hope this helps. And yes I know it does suck to spend money on appliances but if you factor in how much you could be saving in the long run from taking care of your teeth, it can sit a bit better. Also most places I presume do some form of payment plan too. Wishing you all the best 🙏

@@CelindaBelle i have been hearing shwartz or tooth borne appliances only cause teeth tipping in adults and no actual maxilla expansion so i am pretty confused lol. and just learned about MSE and EASE. do you think an otc night guard is good enough or should someone get orthotic therapy if one has tmj stuff? not sure if thats worth spending on, besides the expansion stuff. either way i know it depends on the case but it appears even a tie can cause tmj issues alone
