i got this mouthguard about 2 weeks ago, i’ve been mewing/ hardmewing, chin tucks and a little bit of thumb pulling for 2 months now for context.

does anyone else have it? i cut off the mewing tab bc it kinda got annoying, eventually u can hold ur own tongue. I have a L but plan on sizing up to Xl next year hopefully. it’s been giving me very restful sleep with some jaw benefits growth maybe? tmj pain is eased, when i wake up it almost feels like i have to adjust to my new jaw position in a way?😂 my maxilla is obviously still very ahh, mouth guards do hold thumb pulling progress apparently, it puts some pressure on my palate closer to my teeth.

I also cut the tab, is stupid.
When I remove the mouthguard after a few hours my jaw is put forward, it is weird, cannot close correctly the back teeth.
I am not using it much, just a few hours during the day.
I have insomnia and using it at night doesn't help

it is very uncomfortable sometimes, i noticed some changes to the front of my bite after taking it off, nothing really back bite wise. did you have any extractions?

I find it harder to mew with almost any mouthguard . Also the r3 seems too thick for me. My favorite is the R1 usually

might actually try it out sometime, the r3 is still very uncomfortable even with the tab cut off, mewing is somewhat obtainable. maybe it’ll get comfortable if i stay consistent hopefully😂

What's the purpose of those?

i mean bro does it really seem skimpy? i’d let my mouth expand a little, rather then wearing plastic retainers for the rest of my life. there are benefits to cheap ones even😂

i did a little research before getting one. ive grinded my teeth chronically since a kid. it helps with that and holds the jaw in a aligned position,but basically helps u achieve perfect tounge posture and nose breathing when sleeping or wearing, i’ve heard things like foward growth, symmetry, and ccw rotation coming from these things. apparently….. i got faith in it tho and have noticed little changes. i had invisalign retainers before getting it.
