does chewing actually work to increase jaw width?

[Oxygen]

and is it worth the time investment? Im under 25 years old and willing to buy a high quality masseter exerciser. Any health consequences?

 

[alriodai]

if good masseters insertions most likely
risks are TMJ and bruxism

No need for masseter exerciser, chew mastic gum

 

[User49]

not really

it’s not significant enough but i still do it

you can’t get flared gonions with it

 

[Bewusst]

Measurable jaw (bone) width increases should only be expected in children and growing teenagers, but the appearance of a broader jaw via masseter hypertrophy can be achieved at any age. The same goes for bone density

It will increase the size of the masseters muscles which will make the jaw appear wider. So in short, yes.

If you’re born narrow then it’s over
