Mew also claims chewing and swallowing are part of proper mouth health. | Mew also claims chewing (especially tough food) and certain swallowing techniques are part of proper mouth health. | ||
He claims, when the entire tongue is on the roof of the mouth pushing forward, the tongue acts as a barrier between the left side and right sides of the mouth. One must now symmetrically chew their food in reps. For example, 20 chomps on the left side of the mouth, 20 chomps on the right side of the mouth. Then place food on top of the tongue, then lift and throw the food down the throat. | He claims, when the entire tongue is on the roof of the mouth pushing forward, the tongue acts as a barrier between the left side and right sides of the mouth.

The second step is to literally swallow without moving any facial muscles, a symmetrical forward facing sweeping motion when swallowing is acceptable as well. A surprisingly large amount of people swallow in conjunction with facial expressions, such as pursing the lips. Dr. Mew believes 85% of the general population at least do this, overtime messing up facial symmetry and harmony. When swallowing, the tongue should pick up and throw the chewed food down the throat in a symmetrical fashion. When swallowing liquids the tongue should not move at all and the lips should open but the jaw and teeth stay clenched. Let the liquid pour into the mouth through the clenched teeth. Obviously this takes some getting used too. | The second step is to literally swallow without moving any facial muscles, a symmetrical forward facing sweeping motion when swallowing is acceptable as well.
