The word "Mewing" refers to the sound a cat makes. The phonetic transcription in IPA (International Phonetic Alphabet) for "Mewing" is /ˈmjuːɪŋ/.

MEWING Meaning and Definition

  1. Mewing is a term often used in the context of facial aesthetics and orthodontics. It refers to a technique developed by British orthodontist Dr. John Mew and his son Dr. Mike Mew, which aims to improve facial appearance and overall health by promoting proper oral posture and correct tongue posture.

    In simple terms, mewing involves positioning the tongue against the roof of the mouth, maintaining the lips together and breathing through the nose, in order to achieve optimal oral and facial development. This technique asserts that these habits can help reshape the face, align the jaws, and improve various aesthetic and health-related concerns such as a recessed chin, crowding of teeth, posture issues, and snoring.

    The concept of mewing is often associated with the theory of craniofacial growth and development. It suggests that improper oral posture, such as mouth breathing or tongue resting on the floor of the mouth, can lead to unfavorable facial changes, including a weaker chin, narrower dental arches, and changes in the overall shape of the face.

    While some individuals claim to have achieved positive results through mewing, it is important to note that the concept and its effectiveness are still debated within the medical community. Some dental professionals argue that the evidence supporting mewing is limited and further research is needed to substantiate its claims.

    In conclusion, mewing is a technique that involves proper oral and tongue posture with the aim of improving facial aesthetics and overall health. Its effectiveness and impact on facial development are still subjects of ongoing research and discussion.
