New words always arouse curiosity, especially when it is not just a term, but a special complex that promises specific results.

Let's find out what is hidden under the mysterious definition of "mewing" and why children and adults do it.

What is mewing

Mewing is a non-invasive technique aimed at correcting the maxillofacial apparatus. It is based on the idea of the correct position of the tongue in the mouth.

What does this mean? Supporters of the method are confident that as a result of performing exercises that involve the tongue, facial features become correct and teeth become even.

Why do mewing?

It is believed that in children, mewing promotes the correct formation of the facial skeleton, corrects the position of the teeth and helps to avoid problems with the bite.

It is worth emphasizing here that to achieve the desired result, mewing alone is not enough: it is necessary to use additional methods, such as orthodontic treatment.

For adults, mewing helps solve breathing and sleep problems and helps align teeth.

Please note that despite all the advantages of mewing, its effectiveness and safety require additional study, so you should consult a specialist before using it.

Performing the exercises incorrectly can cause unwanted consequences such as headaches, facial muscle tension, digestive problems and malocclusion.
