There are tons of empirical data on the benefits of tongue posture/mewing. Are orthodontists throwing Mike Mew under the buss as a strategic business move? What do you guys think? [[User:Mikey|Mikey]] ([[User talk:Mikey|talk]]) 20:04, 30 December 2019 (UTC)

: Just as plausible as Dr. Mew making bank off insecure teenagers. Who knows what is true. Fact is that the literature is uncertain and all the results you have listed are only indirect evidence that tongue posture has an effect. There is no evidence of this particular technique being effective, neither for children nor for adults. Pretending otherwise seemingly caused him to be expelled from the British Orthodontic Society.

:: We can't know for sure about the business part, still the science part is completely empirical and verified, actually investigate your links. The reddit post you keep linking in the lead does not lead to any studies, just a discussion among orthopedic doctors. Also the full sentence (quote) is "The public needs to be made aware that it is not based on sound scientific evidence *that would make it a viable alternative treatment to orthognathic surgery.*https://www.joms.org/article/S0278-2391(19)30349-0/fulltext#back-bib2 Mewing is based on sound evidence just not enough to say no more need for corrective surgeries. Here's a picture of the full quote from the discussion https://imgur.com/a/6PVDcWf [[User:Mikey|Mikey]] ([[User talk:Mikey|talk]]) 20:47, 30 December 2019 (UTC)

"Very few professional male models are noticeable mewers. https://imgur.com/a/EERA1GS" how would you even be able to tell their tongue posture. [[User:Bibipi|Bibipi]] ([[User talk:Bibipi|talk]]) 20:21, 30 December 2019 (UTC)

: because phase 1 mewing outlined in green makes the person look like their sticking their mouth out. This is like asking how can you tell if someone is a mouth breather, or has a recessed maxilla. They have a distinct facial profile. Recessed maxilla:https://imgur.com/a/LPcRRwj Mouth breathing:https://imgur.com/a/hb188qA
