not nearly as bad as jawbreathing
fuck is jaw breathing nigga
meant mouthbreathing mb
doesnt really answer my question tho does it contribute to recession or not at all if you have proper tongue posture
I know, the thing is i'm not entirely sure if they're 1-2mm apart as i can barely fit my tongue through the gap so i think thats more, thats what i meant
So ur basically saying you think your teeth are apart by more than 2mm? Bc if they are naturally more than 2mm, it’s means you have a bite problem, and if not fixed it can have some of the same side effects over time as more breathing posture
yes HOWEVER it's not my natural mouth resting posture. i simply open my jaw a little further because i tend to bite my cheeks because of stress, my natural mouth resting posture is definitely 2mm
Ok then I wouldn’t worry, it’s only a big issue if you have no choice to do it due to whatever reason
Why?
You can look online yourself that’s how a normal bite should be your teeth should not be touching, your back teeth should be apart by around 1 mm
constant tension in the jaw contributes to bruxism
so then it shouldn't contribute to recession much? that's what i'm really scared of mainly
You are not supposed to bite just let the upper teeth lay on your lower. You tense the jaw during the whole day by eating and talking anyways.
still i think having them closed isn't good for your masseters and can also make you grind your teeth in your sleep, the ideal jaw resting position is 1-2mm apart. if you fully relax your jaw you'll notice it automatically opens
What do you meanDon’t lick your lips make it harder learned it the hard way today
