If you're reading this guide, it's probably because some of these terms sound familiar to you, either from TikTok or from browsing for ways to improve your appearance. In this guide, I'll tell you EVERYTHING you need to know about each of these techniques.
THUMBPULLING: What do you need to know about this technique?
What is: It is a technique that promises to improve your maxillary projection and expand your palate.
How do you do it? Well, the beloved Oscar Patel has several videos explaining how to do it. It basically consists, as the name suggests, of using both thumbs to push the palate. I won't go into too much detail about how to do it because I can tell you right away that this has no scientific backing. This means you can do this for months and get no results, or worse, negative results like misaligned teeth due to the thumbs pushing in.
However, if you are interested and accept the risks of using this technique, you will find many videos on YouTube talking about it.
BONESMASHING: What do you need to know about this technique?
What does it give you? Well, this technique promises to increase bone density and volume.
How it is done and with what intention?: well, they usually recommend doing it with a hammer or a hard object. With the hammer, you will have to hit the places where you want to achieve bone growth, with the intention of creating microfractures to obtain more voluminous bones after healing. It is based on Wolf's law.
I won't explain it in detail either, because while it may make some sense, the most likely outcome is that if you do this frequently, you'll end up with serious bruises or fractures. Although due to the swelling after blows, it may seem like you have more bones, I'm sorry to say that's false.
MEWING:What do you need to know about this technique?
What do you achieve with this technique? Well, I'll just tell you three basic things you can expect to achieve: first, to refine the jaw; second, to improve breathing; and if done at an early age, it contributes to craniofacial growth.
How is it done? It consists of, with your lips and teeth sealed, placing your tongue against the palate (without touching your teeth, of course, to prevent them from moving forward) and breathing through your nose. This technique must be practiced constantly, as it is the correct way to breathe. Some people do this naturally from a young age. The results are most noticeable in adolescence, but you'll also see some results even if you're older. While the results aren't very dramatic, it's a good technique that optimizes your health.
CHIN TUCKS:What do you need to know about this technique?
What does it promise? This technique promises overall improvement in posture, as well as neck pain relief, swallowing aid, and strengthening of neck muscles.
How do you do it? Well, for this, I'll use two videos, two variables:
1:
2:
Finally, I'll briefly give my personal opinion: The first two are, in my opinion, rubbish, which can be summed up as "cope" and misinformation. I practice the other two daily, and I'd say they deliver results and are essential for any look-maxxer.
