pushing up on the maxilla does nothing, it's all about expansion.

hard mewing in regards to expansion is pointless, the forces required to shift a tooth 1/16mm is not that much, light-medium force from the tongue spreading itself flat against the palate is enough. Moving the teeth beyond 1/16 mm is a good way to damage the periodontal ligament and possibly the tooth roots, in addition to experiencing unnecessary pain, you can't really maintain mewing hard enough to shift a tooth beyond 1/16mm unless you are willing to go through that pain. I know since I've tried mewing with full effort and started getting pain in my molars in just a couple minutes, it's just not sustainable.

how does that make any sense for anyone with a recessed maxilla?
