Interesting video about chewing gum and causing the face to widen and jaws to become more square
sadly in Asia the preference is towards more skinnier face these days…
For example take a look at this girl in Korea that got jaw contouring surgery done to make her square jaws slimmer
IMO, she looks so much hotter in the left pic but people in Korea might disagree
Some people ask me how long should you chew?
I don’t think you should over do it and chew for like 7 hours like this girl
She chewed for 7+ hours everyday and wore the joints out on her jaws causing her to need surgery to replace the joints
Take note of her wide jaws tho…
I generally remember to chew at least 1 hour a day, but some days I’m probably chew 2-4 hours
I am still chewing the Mastiha Gum (tree sap gum) its simply the best, hardest gum around
yes the widening of the face is occurring along with slow upswing of the maxilla and mandible causing the jawline to become more defined. Its a slow process but strengthening the muscle tone definitely helps not only make the jaws wider but ensure your jaws stay closed during the day & night.
The tongue posture is the next element that plays a role in causing facial changes for the better, all I can say is I still continue to practice it daily and I am slowly beginning to see the rise in frontal cheekbones
Frontal Cheekbone is the area in the blue circle. This area is affected by tongue posture
According to Mike Mew its one of the more difficult places to get changes, but it is also what cause facial beauty
Above is a girl with great facial development characterized by the volume in the frontal cheeks
Note the hollow cheeks on the above individuals.
My cheeks are hollowing as well, due to improvement in swallowing patterns. From disuse of cheek muscles during a swallow cause the cheek muscles to dystrophy & become “hollow”
During your swallow, your teeth should come together and the lips and cheeks should not be used at all, instead the tongue is doing all of the work, when you do it correctly, you will actually feel the tongue doing a lot more “work” or motion than before
if you consider that tongue thrusters causes their front teeth to separate and become an open bite, just by the force of the tongue momentarily thrusting at the teeth during a swallow, then its logical to think that when the tongue learns to properly press on the maxilla during a swallow then that shift also should have beneficial effect on the bones / maxilla.

that Korean girl, what a shame, so beautiful, then a jaw like an alien
Yeah, but maybe the Korean’s know something that we don’t…….
I would think that Claire Embelton’s temporo-mandibular joint is wrecked because of lack of nutrition to match the demand of 4 hours of chewing a day.
So really a good message for ‘bone shapers’, get the minerals, vtatmins and essential fats in, then bone morph to your heart’s content.
Seriously, it is a bit addictive the chewing. I’ve got chios/mastiha gum, and I can feel my jaw fatigue but just want to keep chewing……..
I’ve also just ordered chicle base from Mexico from this company http://jorgefong.wix.com/naturalchicle#!processed-recipes/cpj6 You can add flavours yourself. Although I would not add xylitol or glycerin.
Both no no’s for healthy teeth. Apparently the chicle doesn’t have any flavour so hopefully it will be suitable for my four year old daughter.
I do find the mastiha gum pine type of taste a bit much at times.
thanks for this great post CP, a good reminder to keep the chewing in balance.
Poor chick. I chewed mastiha gum straight until it disintegrates (usually 8-9 hours) over Thanksgiving and the Thanksgiving weekend.
This caused me to find proper posterior tongue posture so I stopped the chewing.

– id love to see the comparisons and follow up more on your journey and the membership discussions.
Thanks
I just began this a few days ago and I hope that I can see real changes. I’m confused if I’m swallowing right or keeping the same posture. After swallowing with my mouth closed and only my tounge moving sometimes my cheeks feel sore. Is that normal or am I doing something wrong?
Just to clarify, this means proper tounge posture, chewing for an hour, etc.
Two questions really:
1) Is there any reason to believe mastic gum chewing in adulthood could alter the mandible to have greater posterior development (longer ramus, wider gonial angles)?
2) Hypothetically, say someone was one year post-op from jaw surgery would chewing hard gum increase risk of relapse or would it only further improve their result by encouraging hypodivergent development? Some seem to think masseters provide an upwards and backwards force that would pull bone back and up (this ruining any rotation and advancement that was surgically achieved).
As an Asian person, I know that Asian beauty standards do prefer the smaller face. While I think that can look a little unnatural, I also don’t actually want a square or masculine looking face. Even most Asian men don’t have square faces. I just want my face to look balanced and proportional. I bought some tough gum today and am planning on chewing for an hour each day but I’m worried I will get a masculine looking face. My dad has quite a strong jaw and his face isn’t square so hopefully genes will help me here.
Hi guys, I’ve found a way to move the maxilla far quicker than normal methods. I own MSi College Europe’s largest men’s self improvement website so this is certainly no scam, I genuinely just like to figure things out then share what I’ve learnt. The method can be found through the link below.
