So John Mew advises against the use of elastics in orthodontics? It has not been really clear to me

[Afk]

English is not my native language and I don't know if it really explains whether or not elastic bands are bad

Rubber bands are for faggots. I use metal springs.

I don't deny mewing. I agree that it can't hurt you to try, but some people on here are delusional as hell when it comes to mewing.

dont wear them

they bring your upper and lower mandibles to a midpoint when you lower should be brought up to meet your maxilla.

every action has an equal and opposite reaction

Could you explain a little more in depth? In a class 2 elastic pulls your upper maxillary bone down or only affects the movement of the teeth, in this case the canines?
