This video is about choice and who should have it.
Most general dentists are taught to do exactly what Polly’s dentist did, nothing. Rosie, her mother
pushed for a referral to the local Maxilofaical surgeon, which happened to be at the world renown
John Radcliffe in Oxford, only to be told exactly the same message. Do nothing, completely miss the opportunity to guide growth.
This is based on the assumption that class III is genetic. The orthodontic profession want to believe this, as it support the current status quo, but there is no good evidence for this.
Ask your dentist why they do not refer at 4 to 7 when it is usually obvious that something is wrong? Ask them if they have used the skills that they were taught in university to read the actual research and make their own mind up, or are they just accepting the opinion of a profession with a natural interest in preserving the status quo.
Best wishes,

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.

Can you fix an underbite without braces? A; in theory yes, given that there seems to be such a large non-genetic influence. May be the question should be; "can you change your posture" since this is the hard bit.
How long does it take to fix an underbite? A; if you have a large underbite and are too old for orthotropic type methods then it can take several years 2-3 often with surgery.
Can you live with an underbite? A; the position of the teeth make little health issues, but the problem as a whole could have major implications.
Do Underbites get worse? A; Clearly it depends on what you do, the causes of the problem, then seem to stabilize at around 16.
Can an underbite fix itself? A; Not if you don't affect the causes of the problem.
What is a Class 3 underbite? A; The front teeth biting the wrong way around.
At what age do you correct an underbite? A; We believe that the younger the better, but this is controversial. The orthodontic profession tend to prefer people to wait until they are older and use surgery.
What causes underbite? A; predominately the environment, habits and soft food, but there does seem to be a genetic contribution.
How can I fix my underbite naturally? A; Mewing. Correct your oral and body posture, chew well, stand up straight.
Does underbite affect breathing? A; almost certainly, but this does depend on the presentation. Our worry is that this can affect expected life length, facial form and cognition.
The underlying pathology of malocclusion and the related symptoms is referred to as Craniofacial Dystrophy;
www.nature.com/...
The association feels that it should be possible to prevent or at least minimize the level of craniofacial dystrophy through simple public health measures. Please consider supporting the campaign; preventcrooked...

Orthotropics should I sleep on my back? Also does nose length have anything to do with proper mewing? I’ve been a nose breather my whole life and I have tongue posture and proper swallowing. However my mid face is a little longer than I would have thought... thank you 😊
Hey, I have a high arched palate and I've been mewing correctly for 3 months now, I don't see major changes
@@Letsgochamp-kh4wm I am not certain but have posted a link in a comment below, M
@@prince_sach50 3 months and you are expecting to see changes in facial form? Really? Percentage wise how many months in your entire life so far did you have poor oral posture + function and how many months do you have better OP&F (I would be shocked if it was close to perfect for much of the time now)? And you are expecting to see dramatic changes. Give it a year or so, continue to work hard and you will certainly get somewhere, but otherwise I only answer this question as an example for others to gain a clear understanding of the situation. NOTHING is going to occur in 3 months. It would make no sense that it does. You have started a path, keep going and in time you will see or feel benefits, but it takes time.
This is possibly one of the most important things that you do in life. You do it for appearance reasons while I want to see the health benefits, either way it is really important that you take this message to spur you forwards. Make this the way that you are, change yourself for the better. But don't expect results in 3 months.
Best wishes, and enjoy the journey. Mike
P.S. I should add that I am not going to give anyone an on-line consultation on their personal situation. All comments have to stay abstract and philosophical. Best wishes M
"It did seem really wrong that we whernt even told this was a possablity" exactly. More people should spread the word about these types of treatment. Tell family and friends who have children about orthotropics
" who have children" rip the adults
Yesss! I DO .. I'M IN Pension now, but I will send this Video's of Doc Mew to my younger Collegs and to a lot of Pediatrics, too, and I will ask my very good Dentist (he's really a Specialist and a very good one!) if he is interested to have a look to this Videos! ;-)
@Arkham secrets • 108 years ago: YESS! Better to try as to do nothing!

This info should be shouted from the rooftops...so many people are walking around with ruined faces, health issues, and not meeting their potential b/c of not knowing the things stated in the video.
I made my 12 yr old brother mew i swear 2 yrs later im now jealous
Wish I had a elder sibling like you, I'm jealous too.
tried to tell my little sister (14) to mew she didnt believe it i did it for 1.5 years and now she wants to learn about it after the changes i got
Jake shanks same, I told my sister (14) to mew but she didn't believe me for about 6 months, she finally started mewing a month and a half ago and oh boy, these kids can have changes so fast!

If only I had known about this back when i was 7 years old...
Same now I'm 15 they said I'd get surgery at 17... Why are people so scared of surgery though like are there problems that could happen long term? Bc seeing others trying to avoid it at all costs makes me scared 😢
@@bluesoul1260 I had upper and lower jaw surgery at 15 and it was to prevent issues that happen in adulthood.
Not trying to scare you, but it's the one thing in my life that I wish I'd never done.
@@marieruhlin4991 why? What happened that made you think that? Is it bc you did it at a somewhat early age? Or bc of the surgery itself?
Me too. Though I doubt that it would have happened for me even if we had known. I was a complete dental phobic and my family wouldn't have had the money. Let's pray that this replaces traditional orthodontics in the future.
@@bluesoul1260 I recently had double jaw surgery and honestly I couldn’t be happier. If it’s something that’s bothering you I’d say just go and do it. Best decision I’ve made, it’s improved my confidence and everything. If you have any questions I’m happy to answer them.
I had a similar condition, though not as severe, it was mainly caused by incorrect orthodontic treatment and teeth removal at a young age. I had corrective surgery at 28 years old, and the result was life changing of course. I am now a 35 year old man and can't help but cry tears of joy while watching this. Well done to all of you.
Did you get numb on your lips after surgery?
only my top jaw was moved and, i would say i have no numbness, but of course i hear that every case has its own risk factor.
your story sounds similar to mine, anyone or group that would stand in the way of this treatment is pure evil.
Mike literally saved this girls life
may i ask what surgery did you get?

Hellsing Alucard frl😂😂😂😂
Our lord is back... I had VMD and i started mewing 5 years ago and i now look actually quite good... Thank you sir
Viktor, thank for the thank you but in a way this is exactly why I posted this information. You see yourself as looking better, and I think that you are probably much healthier. So we are both happy. Don't stop until you stop breathing, not before my friend. Also spread the word, share our videos as far and wide as you can and help me to help more people just like you. Thanks M
I sure will do... I always recommend your videos to people... Mewing is as far as I know completely beneficial.. They just cant be harmed by mewing...
@@Orthotropics taught someone mewing and now there doing it!
How old were you when you started?
@@naches3844 me?
Someone mentioned sleeping position and this article came to mind; www.ericdavisdental.com/facial-orthotropics-for-your-child/why-raise-unhealthy-children/why-cause-crooked-skulls-and-crooked-bodies/sleep-posture-affects-facial-development.pdf?fbclid=IwAR3CGoSqARW9yrjMZuo53gZNCzyyUxIL4Bm17K1JXuCQBB5oGeOWmSo-kS0
Side sleepers beware. This is precisely why I took Dr. Mike's advice and slowly built the habit of sleeping on my back without a pillow.
Could you possibly do a video explaining sleeping position in the future?
How should we sleep can someone explain me please?
Orthotropics omg, that’s why my right side looks so crushed. I’m like missing 1/4 of my right. I’m a full grown adult who has been mewing for over a year. Even though i’ve seen some good changes, my right side is still ‘crushed’.
I hope to see if there is a way to fix this.
Some one said i should mew harder om my right side...
I can see why Back sleeping is important for Facial development to maintain balance and symmetry of the face and jaws. However side sleeping provides the effect of the glypmatic system by using CSF to clear out plaque and toxins in our brain. So I should do Side sleeping one benefit or Back sleeping for the other 🤔
Production quality is amazing!!
That’s insane. I wish I had that treatment too. I have the same exact problem but not as severe.
MaxMoon you can still do it
MaxMoon Get treatment.. the hard thing to do will be finding a dentist with this kind of philosophy.
@@maxmoon2356 mew like the wind
Mewing absolutely changed my life. I am eternally grateful I have found out about this. I used to hate myself. My appearance and everything. The right side of my face was absolutely underdeveloped. I had an awfully assymetric face.
Then I started mewing and I'm sure that that helped me to like myself more. Who knows the effects that TMJ, and craniofascial dystrophy have on mood. The connection between the vagus nerve and the digestive system... And hence serotonin production. Idk. But however, since July last year I've been stable. And my mental issues were heavy. I'm not saying it was the only thing that helped me, but I wonder how much of my recovery can be attributed to mewing and its positive effects. Now my face is almost symmetrical, I still have crooked lower teeth, but I'm finally content with who I am.
Thank you so much,
Massi 🖤🌿
Happy for you brother! I hope it works the same for me. I don't like my appearance too.
Bro, i have the exact same problem, one side of my face is different, i have an asimetrical face and that makes me very insecure, how long have you been doing mewing? And how old are you? Please answer, please
Carl Ju brother calm down, almost everyone have an asymmetrical safe it's not a big deal.
Mewing will definitely help if you're under 25, but work on our posture too. A lot of people with asymmetrical face also have asymmetrical neck, so yo need to work on your neck too ,by stretching the stiff muscles. Overall body posture is very important, as important as mewing. I started mewing 6 months ago, I'm19, I'm already seeing some good results.
Do not hard mew, it can cause even more asymmetry.
Good luck.
@@naches3844 i have the same age. Also something about me is that i have a shoulder higher than the other, i think that also affects my asimetry
Carl Ju yes that is possible, trying stretching you're neck and shoulders, you'll feel one side in more stiffer than the other, Work on that and also mewing takes time, be patient and consistent.
The smile at 9:15 just speaks volumes in itself. That could easily be Cate Blanchett's smile
There's some width in this upper jaw dude haha
@@peheros_ bruhhhh lmao
Beautiful work man. You’ve got my admiration both as a professional and as a human being. I’m 44 years old, and I don’t expect much change in my facial features. But you know what the best part is? It doesn’t matter. What matters is that I do my daily practice, and that I’m happy to do it. Slowly, slowly, everyday I move from an unconscious posture to a conscious one. That makes me happy. And if I can give my children a positive influence, a good example, and help them grow and develop well on their path, I’m much more than happy. Thanks for the great work.
Johnny Belmont you are amazing
Hey! Not so much on my teeth (that have always been a bit forward), but for sure on my tongue and jaw muscles. After a couple of years, I can say that my tongue has shifted positions to the "ceiling" of the mouth pretty much for good. No need to think about it, it's just there (even though I still do my practice out of maintenance's sake). About the jaws, I haven't seen much visual difference, but it certainly feels strong. And about "not seeing much change in my facial features", perhaps that's a good thing considering I'm 46, and not getting any younger 😄 Idk, perhaps there's a correlation there, between getting older withou having our facial features drop to the ground. Id love to hear what Mike thinks about that line of thinking. Hope you're all doing good. Cheers!
03:02 MikeMew.exe has stopped working
Lol xd
Such happiness
At the comparison of course
Mike you are such a legend all the best mate!!!!
I really love what Polly's Mum said in 11:20
Thank you so much for your work, since I got to know about mewing I've changed so much, and I'm not talking physically (but I mean it, too) but mentally I'm in so much better place than I was before. Mewing was that one thing which explained all of my struggles.
Orthotropics is a thing world should definetly know about, love from Poland
What is not mentioned in this video if she went the traditional orthodontics or surgery route she'd be highly likely to have severe sleep apnea /tmj /chronic pain problems. Mike saved this girl and hundreds of others from the sick alternative.
I guess, she just got braces. I know someone who had a similar problem and she just had braces. As he said, the brace pull the upper teeth forward and the form of the upper jaw change. It works well in kids
@@heidip1782 no Heidi he's referring to orthotropic treatment. Where he uses reverse pull headgear to pull her top jaw forward. If she got traditional orthodontics they'd do the exact opposite. They would push her bottom jaw back and extract teeth. This would damage her health
@@psz90 im not so much informed about the procedure. But I'm pritt sure, in my country (Austria) they don't push bottom jaw backwards. I just knew one person with a similar problem and she got braces which pulled the upper jaw forward. It's normal here to do it that way
@@heidip1782 Heidi it's not possible with braces alone to pull top jaw forwards. You may be able to get some expansion of the palate but not movement of the posterior maxilla. Newtons laws of physics require that an anchor is placed in order to move the entire jaw forward which is why Dr Mew uses the headgear
Some body please tell him that facemask has been part of orthodontic treatment for 150 years you are just ignorant on which this guy is praying off off
Lucky to have mike local to us, eldest daughter has been having treatment for the few years. Changes are huge.
Orthotropics should be an available treatment everywhere. Great work!
Mike Mew is an incredible man! And bless this mom for putting hard work into helping fix her child's problems.
Dr mew when will you upload the animated series of proper mewing,chewing, swallowing,tongue sweep? I am really waiting for those as i don't know how to put a tongue sweep
Arup Saha yeah I understand everything about mewing except the tongue sweep
Although it was an emotional rollercoaster for me knowing my face was damaged by headgear braces, I'm thankfull you share this important message. My daughter and little niece are blessed 💕
Im sorry to hear this. How was your face damaged ?
@@PlentitudeIsland flat cheekbones, crooked nose, recessed chin.
@@fadjeja3141 how did you have a underbite or overbite ? And did u have crooked teeth
@@sorryantisocial2238 due to mouthbreathing and thumbsucking. I wasn't breastfed.
I love these testimonial-videos! They give me the motivation to mew even stronger.
I wish someone had told my parents about ortho tropic treatment when I was little. I was told when I was 14 I would probably need surgery to correct my class 3 bite. Fast forward to last September when I did have the surgery (I’m 18). I don’t regret having surgery but I do wish the problem was dealt with and bypassed altogether
How happy are you with the results of your surgery?
VikingTheDude pretty happy. My teeth fit together now and so my smile isn’t as awkward. Also, because I had an underbite and cross bite before surgery, my face is more symmetrical now. Breathing through my nose and chewing are easier. My profile is better looking. I just wonder if mewing would help me at all to get more forward growth, or if the plates and screws that are now in my face would prevent that.
@@reaganhadaway6619 I see. I was 13 when I first noticed my class 3 bite developing. It had probably been developing way before that. It became very obvious by the time I was 15. Being a teen an all, I was so embarrassed for having it and would try it hide it from others as much as I could. I would keep my jaw slightly open 24x7 because that way, it wasn't immediately obvious my lower jaw protruded forward. I kept myself in denial that way till I was 21. Once I had come to terms with it, I felt so liberated. It was only then that I realised my self confidence issues hadn't just come from out of nowhere, that it wasn't an inherent flaw in my personality. That's when I decided to seek treatment. I'm 23 now. I'm 1.5 years into my treatment using braces. When I had to choose between braces and surgery, all the dentist's I consulted said my condition wasn't bad enough to warrant surgery. Now nearing the end of my treatment, I feel a lot better. The treatment only fixed my teeth, so my lower jaw still clearly protrudes outwards, and my upper jaw is still set back a bit. But I feel less awkward when I smile. When I'm out with people, I no longer feel like a piranha whose lower canines are jutting out. I sometimes wonder what would've been if I had gotten surgery. But I'm happy with even the progress I've made. Now I'm trying to build my confidence back up again.
I'm tearing up watching this. Such a beautiful story.
I have had this condition for 50 years and yes i can tell you i have very low self-esteem. I feel so happy for you that you came across Dr. Mew early in Pollys' life. Blessings. xx
I’m so grateful for Orthotropics!!!!
I am completely and utterly deformed. Im 28 and im doing all the mewing but I’ve probably reached my natural peak. Great to see she got help in time!
pmiller I am sorry. Do not loose hope..

@Princess of Fireflies have you actually taken xrays? Becuase most people claim to have changes so much while it's mostly just soft tissue getting firmer
Hey, if possible, have a consult with Mike Mew with your x-rays and he can guide you to what can be done (as of now, maybe it's surgery). We cannot change what has happened, but we can choose what we do now. 😊 You are only 28 and have so much more time!
This makes me so emotional, you guys have changed our lives in a similar way 💜 Thank you!!
Thank God for orthotropics! Keep doing what you're doing, Dr. Mew.
Take me back 10 years please 😅😫
7:52 never seen him so happy, gives me warm feelings =3
Love the video! I'd love to see similar things about more grown up people.
Grown ups will not change as fast as Polly but over time change does happen, it's just slow and it takes a lot of effort. Admin
What a beautiful smile young Polly has, what a treasure for her to be able to express her sparkling personality with confidence. I also had issues as a young child and adolescent but here in North Carolina in the states, there simply wasn’t an awareness of alternatives to the orthodontia that made some of my underlying problems worse.
I’ll recycle the phrase, but knowing that Mike Mew is out there gives me the “steely confidence” to know progress can be made when you understand the fundamentals and begin making the necessary changes. Thank you for coming forth with Polly’s story for CZcams, it’s something people need to see so that more young families can have the confidence to do the work required even if it seems untraditional.
What a beautiful story. Thank you Dr. Mew. We love you.

Back. Fight hard. Tears of joy !🍀💕💜
I remember begging my dentist not to send me to the orthodontist. I even asked him if drinking milk everyday would straighten my teeth. I refused to believe that braces were necessary. I got put through so much shit. And after straightening them and wearing retainers. They bent again a few months later. Meaning I wasted time, money and torment as a child dealing with that shit. In the end I gained nothing. Im mewing everyday now. And I love difficult challenges. I wish you were around when I was a kid. You are doing God's work.
if you have an actual malocclusion that is skeletal in nature rather than dental, then braces aren’t going to fix it. neither is mewing. the physical bones are malformed therefore they need to be corrected with surgery. if your malocclusion was only dental, then there’s no reason they would shift back to where they were unless you were not wearing your retainers correctly, retainers need to be worn nightly for life to retain your teeth’s position.
Made me tear up 😢

Forgive me if I'm wrong but didn't the mother have the same problem to a degree?
@@norman6898 It wasn't my intention to imply it was genetic but my apologies if it came across that way. That it isn't (just) genetic is the basis of orthotropics, however, the mother still displays the same problem. It's probably from similar habits in oral posture.
@@NR-fg2qc Yes, that might be possible. It can be related to personal habits including chewing and types of food, posture and mannerisms learnt from parents.
@@notadoctorshh6544 has nothing to do with habits. skeletal malocclusion is caused by either underdeveloped upper jaw, overdeveloped lower jaw, or both. often genetic. 3 other people in my family have a skeletal underbite.
@@NR-fg2qc it is genetic. it’s not caused by posture, it’s literally malformation of the jaw bones. it is skeletal in nature. 3 other people in my family have skeletal underbites, and i got whatever gene carried that.

My name is Ola , I am 18 years, and have been mewing for 5 months now, I also have an underbite and am hoping to see results from mewing, but I have noticed no changes so far. Polly's story has really motivated me, hopefully in the future i will see results from mewing
olaoluwa odeyemi same situation. I have very mild underbite, and I have been mewing for 4 month, I noticed that my maxilla moved forward a bit, I think it will rly help us in 2 year only
Be patient. It takes time and the younger you start mewing the better the results.
can mewing fix an underbite?
@@kozumelubs1574 no. you need to see an orthodontist to determine whether the underbite is dental (caused by the position of the teeth) or skeletal (caused by the position of the bone). if it’s dental, it can likely be corrected through braces +heavy elastics. if it’s skeletal, there’s a pretty good chance it can only be corrected through surgery. this is coming from someone who had double jaw surgery for a class III malocclusion.
please see an orthodontist. mewing will not do anything when your jaw is already done growing.

@@livinghope1561 Sir, I believe that he was joking.
Mike and his father are revolutionary.
I love how this unconventional orthotropics not only changes the appearance of a person but also set them the right mindset about correcting posture in everyday life. Usually, people who used normal orthodontics will only rely on the technology and not make actual attempts to stop bad habits causing dental and facial problems, because they have always thought that facial abnormalities can't get better without operations or high technology methods. But prevention is better than cure. What really matters is awareness, since awareness results in actions to refrain oneself from having bad postures again. Those who have been through orthotropics and mewing, and those who simply believe in this whole theory will have an overall awareness of their tongue posture, sitting posture and sleeping posture; therefore, they strive to enhance them by themselves
skeletal malocclusions can be GENETIC. you cannot “prevent” getting a gene that causes abnormal growth in your jaw bones????? 3 other people in my immediate family have this skeletal malocclusion. no amount of correct “posture” could have changed this for me. posture cannot move your fully grown malformed adult jaw bones. this is so misinformed. there is a reason that surgery is commonplace for severe skeletal malocclusions in adults, thats because it is the most reliable, precise, well studied, and least risk of relapse.
My honest respects for the fantastic job you've been doing sir.
I have the same problem I grew up and learned to love myself.. I have pics posted .. look at my beautiful big jaw it's not a disease.
Mike miew absolute sweet heart you are thank you for all you do for people

They are a bit also my Babies!
Treating class 3 patients whilst they're still growing seems to be a fairly common part of orthodontics in Australia. Surprises me that she's was told her daughter couldn't be treated until finding this Dr
There are a number of progressive orthodontists in Australia (some offering biobloc orthotropics). Derek Mahony is probably the most well known, but also Simon Wong and a few others. The Myobrace was invented by Chris Farrell in Australia in consultation with John Mew. The Myomunchee was also invented by the Bourkes in Australia. Steve Lin is a progressive dentist who encourages good oral posture. John Mew has known all these people for many years and taught many of them.
It’s the same in the U.S. and all that mew did in this video was create his own version of the face mask-which has been used for decades to treat underbites in growing patients.
@@d.n.8919I think i personally see the benefit in using appliances to intercept growth.
In only 6 months??? That's CRAZY. To think that she would have had to suffer until 18 when she would have to have painful surgery to achieve a result not even as desirable as this is insane. I hope this practice becomes mainstream, it is cruel for it not to be.
this does not work for many many patients, it works best in children. when you have a fully grown malformed adult jaw, headgear or mewing does NOT work long term. if the issue is skeletal rather than dental, the only reliable treatment is surgery. i get that people are scared of that, but there’s no scheming going on here. when an orthodontist tells you that you need surgery, you likely NEED surgery. if a doctor told you you needed knee surgery and was able to explain to you exactly why and how this would be necessary, you wouldn’t doubt them. there’s no difference. no one is being cruel.
Very passionate MD
Hello Mike, do you mind if I write subtitles in Spanish for some of your videos?
Please do! Thanks.
I can write romanian ones, however not sure how to add them. Will figure it out though.
Incredible and amazing work by mike mew and his father this should be the norm like she said
Something I wish would be more available in other parts of the world.
I had this same exact problem growing up, probably even worse. If only i had known about orthotropics back then. Thankfully i’m still 18 so hopefully it’s not too late.
Can i ask...What are you doing now ? What you did to correct it...
Any tip or advice ?
@@princessrosedewitt8400 I’ve just been trying to mew as much as I can, whenever I can. It’s not really working all that well but i’m saving up to go see an orthotropic dentist.
@@ejm821 go to an orthodontist, not an orthotropic dentist. an orthodontist can determine whether the underbite is skeletal or dental in nature, and whether or not you need braces + elastics, or surgery. mewing + orthotropic treatment does not work on people whose jaws are already fully formed. you can’t move or shift or grow your bones through mewing.
This is all extremely valuable for me as a youngster for when I will have kids later.
What a pretty girl she become
Real shame the NHS leaves young people on the rubbish heap.
I myself suffer with a twisted skull caused by repeated head trauma at an extremely young age, multiple mandibular problems, dental trauma.
I've raised these issues to my GP, dentists. Several dentists have commented on the severity.... GPs have dismissed me as having psychological issues.
Quite an extraordinary experience.
I'm still quite young at 34 too.... Health care in the UK needs to change!
What? How it was nothing they could do? Seriously??
I hope one day I have a jaw that looks as good as dr Mike Mew.
Incredible work
hope you live well into old age, I can see grey hair coming in
I love you guys ♡ you're all amazing! Our bodies are amazing! You're so beautiful & brave, Polly ♡
Its so screwed how we aren’t told about this by people who know. All these doctors and dentists know that good posture is essential for healthy growth. Its like they benefit from us being messed up, it gives them a job. If they instead told us about orthotropics and good posture in general then braces and surgery wouldnt be used in many cases
Beautiful!
Great work, sir mike.
What a little cutie.
I have a horrible underbite my mom spent thousands on braces, retainers teeth pulled 12 in total when I was young and it seems all for naught. I wish I had this perspective or option. Your a great man ❤️
To this day when I shut my jaw I can easily stick most of my tongue out. It's a huge confidence killer so to see this girl beat the odds it's so great to see
@@shaneduncan7309 I've got the same issue. Mine is class 3 malocclusion. Yours?
@@hh-qy8zt mine also class 3 what treatment are you seeking?
I wish I knew about it 42 years ago.
Hello doctor, I know it is weird to say the least, for I have never even seen you personally, but you changed my life, I went from having a long and weak jaw and a not very attractive face, to having a way stronger jaw and a good looking face. My face is not perfect yet by now, but the change is visible, you can actually see by comparing the old pictures to the new ones, how different it got. I am almost 17 and when I started I was almost 16, so I have practiced orthotropics for a bit more than one year, quiet a small amount of time for my age. The only thing I struggle with is bruxism, which I had way before starting orthotropics, and I guess I got it because I used to chew with my right side more than the left one, thus if I put a big amount of pressure in my palate or chew too much hard food or gum, my left jaw joint starts to hurt a little and crack when I open, but it is getting better based on how I am gradually applying more pressure, even so, is you could give me some advice in this matter i would be very grateful, because, unfortunately, I live in Brazil, so it would be very hard to go to your clinic, and there is no orthodontist, that I know of, who uses a similar method and line of thought to yours in my country. Again, I am very grateful for your free content and will to help others, your work is grate, and I wish you the best.
Boa Caralho! 16 anos e ja começou? Ta saino da jaula o monstro. Eu comecei com 20
Joao,
Thank you very much. This was the intention of putting this information out there. What you see as looking better, I see as being healthier. Either way we are both happy, although I've suffered personally from tying to put this information out there (as you will here at some point in the future). Please help spread this information and continue to work hard (and take good images).
Mike

Had tears watching this the whole time. 😭 Basically ordinary people are under attack by "forces" , we must fight for freedom, at this point they have way too much power. It's not only the health sector, this is kind of like a terrorist attack on normal beings from every aspect , started a long time ago. Humans must unite and look for the real enemies everything else is just distraction.
We must spread the truth. Sadly nobody is willing to sacrifice.
gj finding out the truth RS, I suggest you first watch this video too: /watch?v=C7mVKynK034 and then check Out Jeff's other channels. Theres alot to learn still.
Please start treating cleft children? I understand that they need some surgeries, to close the cleft. But they have to go thrue sooooo many horrific surgeries since they are young children.. I was born with a cleft palate and mewing has helped me and i started mewing when i was already 22, ive never been different looking externally but i had open bite (also i have 4 baby tooth that i don't have adult tooth to replace them and only 1-2mm thin bone in places where i have baby tooths). But basically im living proof that mewing helps, even if you have a cleft. Doctors have cleft children since they are babies, if othotropics was added into their treatment it could do sooo much for them if they were treated with it since they were born. Im worried if i will have cleft child one day when i have children since i have cleft palate myself, if i do i definitely want this treatment for her/him. It shouldn't be about doctors and their egos, it should be about " how do we make this child healthiest and happiest person possible with least amount of pain?" I promise if im unlucky and i one day have a cleft child, i will change world for that child, no matter what i want mew`s treatment for my baby.
That would indeed be interesting to see
Just look at his excitement, he is a gem, thank you dear doctor.
What a beautifull, smart ! girl.
Thanks Roberta 👍🏼
