Cranial Restructuring / Re: Why hasn't Plato updated yet?

I was wondering the same thing and hoping that someone had a solution, outside of getting braces and using rubber bands to lengthen the deficient side. Any ideas? Any hypothesis?

Best bet is to start mewing.

I'm pretty horrified at the DIY solutions here, and even if you manage a result through mechanical means, it will disappear if you stop the "treatment".
You have to do it the way the body is meant to function: move closer to a paleo diet, chew gum on both sides, and mew.
The tongue will push the teeth apart and into the lips, which will keep them aligned.
Be reminded that significant changes can happen over a period of ten years, and it's only a fraction of your active life.

Had begun face pulling at 20 and developed noticeable smile lines aka naso labial folds in my face- discontinued my facepulling but after a year of discontinuing I had begun missing the results I was getting. Best way to prevent wrinkles whilst facepulling?

I wouldn't lump belt pulling in with palate expanders. Bumping intermolar width up by 3-4mm is not uncommon with them.

I've yet to see anyone with results from face pulling. I'm not even sure where the face pulling theory comes from, but I don't believe it's practiced by any doctor - while adult palate expanders are. It just depends on what we're talking about here.

If you're trying to go from an intermolar width of 36mm to 42mm, that may be achievable with a DNA appliance or Homeoblock appliance. But if you're sitting at 33mm and need 46mm, lol no way way no how. You're in SARPE or bust territory.

Cranial Restructuring / Feeling Hopless
« Last post by Mewiarte on November 28, 2018, 03:55:48 pm »
I’m a 16 year old male. I have a inter molar width of 33m. Looking to expand palate, fix recessed chin/overbite and move maxilla up and forward. I don’t think neither me or my family can afford to buy a palate expander. I want to make significant progress but I don’t know if that’s possible without buying equipment given my current inter molar width. Any suggestions?

I know this thread is kind of old but I agree with it. As an adult if you want serious bone changes go for surgery. From what I've read the bone changes you'd get as an adult from mewing, good posture may be about 1 maybe 2 mm over years and years. Not significant at all. Get surgery and mewing for maintenance. That's what I'm doing anyway. No point in wasting years for a possible improvement.

 On that note though I've wondered if taking growth hormone and/or testosterone along with mewing could actually provide measurably better results? Anybody try that?

Cranial Restructuring / Teeth should NOT be in contact at rest!
« Last post by Scerif Fonz on September 27, 2018, 05:40:14 pm »
Hello everyone, I read this forum for a while and there is something that still is not clear to me: where does the notion come from that the teeth should be slightly in contact at rest?

I tried a little bit on the Internet, and all the sites I checked report information like "The teeth must not touch even accidentally, otherwise nociceptive stimuli arrive to the brain, which must interpret and respond to this contact;  another site says "In the rest condition, ie with the chewing muscles relaxed, the teeth should not be in contact but have a "free space" of about 2 millimeters"

I also saw a video of Dr. Mike Mew, who answers just such a question, around the minute 10.30 https://youtu.be/U3owXWaV-I0?list=LLqGuAXGDiIG5disWywaFtZA&t=627. If I understand correctly (English is not my first language), it says that the teeth should not be in contact, but slightly separated , but you can check yourself in the link I have attached.

This information is of fundamental importance, not only for meowing correctly, but especially for the health of the stomatognathic apparatus in general, so I would like to understand the sources that say that the teeth should touch. Thank you all.
