CLENCHING VS CHEWING FOR JAW GROWTH

[looksmidder]

Which of the above would be best for jaw growth during puberty? i’m looking to grow my masseters and jaw bones as much as possible while activating the temporalis as little as possible. (because it would be a looksmin for me due to my face shape) Which would be better for me?

Also would it be possible to gain the benefits of this thread: https://looksmax.org/threads/chewing-megathread.160248/ while clenching or does that require chewing?

The only other method i know to grow masseters without activating the temporalis is chewing with the front teeth but everyone here seems to advise against it, although nobody has said why. If someone could explain that would be ideal

use incisors when clenching to not engage temporalis

wouldn’t work for me, incisor clenching/chewing causes maxilla rotation that shortens the midface and mine is too short already

then just clench, your temporalis muscles probably wont even become an issue and you can hide it with hair
