@@PersonalUse-ul7yn My jaw is slightly towards the right side, so should I push the right side to left or left to right...? I'm genuinely confused please help
Hi Conner - Another common issue with TMJ and jaw pain is a very tight pterogoid muscle. There's a technique to release this muscle that can be self-administered but should probably be done by someone who knows how to target that muscle from the inside of your mouth. It takes about 30 seconds of pressure on the muscle. Once this muscle is released, it can produce virtually instant relief of a tight jaw or lock-jaw.
Conor you didn't delve deeply into the exercises and maybe daily protocols we can do to enhance face symmetry in the previous video, please please make a more detailed video on it, or maybe turn it into a short series of videos that both explains the anatomy in detail and teaches different exercises on different levels and also maybe provide before and after pictures of your patients that these worked on. I have tried professional help but none of them suggest any exercises and they either suggest surgeries or tell me to be happy the way I am. I'd even be more than happy with a book/resource if you provide.
Quick explanation for yall If your left jaw is falling more down than your right jaw than you will have to push your left jaw and if you are having right jaw falling more down than the left than you will have to push the right jaw
Hey, Conor. Thanks for the wonderful content. I have a clarifying question. If my jaw is deviated to the right, do I do the isometric exercise by pushing my jaw to the left side or to the right side?
This is what I researched, trust me: "The lateral pterygoid muscles are important in mandibular function and can influence malocclusions and facial asymmetries. In a patient with a more developed left side, pressure can be applied on the left side of the jaw toward the right, while the patient exerts resistance by pushing his or her jaw unaided toward the left side, as part of therapy to restore muscle balance."
@@rottenplantpot3717So, in conclusion, of You are deviated towards your left side, you have to put your fingers on your left side applying pressure towards your right? I'm sorry, English isn't my first language and I got confused
Hello Connor hope you're well. My breathing always effects my SCM & jaw & lats. I don't know how to breath in lightweights exercises or bodyweight. I keep getting uppercross symptoms
Ikik why are you here, You looks yourself in the mirror and you're look waaaw wara beautiful face is it...and then you take a snap from front cam...and you're overwhelmed by your beauty And then you see yourself in the back cam...💔
So an orthodontic treatment that aligns the bite in the position we're trying to force with this exercise would be beneficial for the alignment of cranial bones in general?
@@javierduenasjimenez7930i think because splint is already meant for moving your facial joint individually in right position just don't necessarily and relatively fast process, but you will need braces after that
If my left side is more internal rotated and right side is external rotated then I have to take two fingers of my right hand put it on my right side of face and push it towards the left side,Right?
Unfortunately I had an orthodontist completed mess up my bite. While the midline is aligned now it's caused other issues. I was much better off with the slight rotation I had of my mandible.
If my jaw is shifted to the right should i place the two fingers on the left side of my chin and push against or place my fingers on the right side of my chin?
What if my bite, so when my teeth are all touching each other my jaw deviates to one side, and u can even tell that by the line which seperates the front top two teeth and the bottom two, if i line that line up my faces evens out a lot. But then its not my bite anymore
My right eye is higher than my left, but I'm pretty sure my jaw is deviated to the right as well because my right upper lip is higher than the left, and I can feel my left molars more when biting down. So am I a mix of both? Which way would I push my jaw? I also have a long term knee injury on my left leg, making my right leg much stronger and my dominant. I also use my right arm much more than the left.
i have the same problem, my left eye is lower than the right one, my left side of the lip is shorter and downward than the right side, let me know if you find the solution to this

@@rottenplantpot3717i think it maybe does something for muscle, but if you don't have necessary space bone of your jaw for that it just achieves nothing and extra making your good side jaw looks less prominent
@@suckduck5738 I understand your points. It is true that muscle strengthening exercises may not be effective if there are structural limitations in the jaw bones. It is important to consider a variety of factors when addressing malocclusions and facial asymmetries, and to seek guidance from trained health professionals. But I believe that in most cases, this can be helpful. I say this especially for mine. Also, not everywhere there are physical therapists who specialize in jaw structure. I am just saying that what this man says is useful, it is not a lie, but of course, it does depend on each particular case.
I'm not sure I get it So if the jaw is tilted toward my left I am supposed to push with my finger from the right while trying to move the chin toward the right?
they said i would grind my teeth at night when i am asleep and i guess ever since whenever i open and close my jaw there is a click on my right side of my jaw and my teeth are uneven on the lower teeth.. so when i close my jaw completely my top row of teeth bite over a little bit from my lower row of teeth.. and my left jaw side looks more chiseled than my right especially when i try to "mew" my left looks good but my right looks like a fat man which is strange... would braces help or what should i do? should i just live like this? lol thanks!

@@Matti1761 See either a TMJ dentist and/or an orthodontist. I'm seeing the former, and am currently in a dental "splint" (basically a retainer on my lower teeth.) After a few months, he'll refer me to an ortho for braces. If 24/7 appliances and braces are required to fix the issues, I'd be flabbergasted if doing a few reps of a gentle exercise could make even a dent.
You should check out a book called "Move Your DNA." Flat feet is one of the many problems she addresses. Long story short: our feet are jacked up (including loss of the arch) because we spend all day on flat surfaces (to which our feet adapt by flattening,) and because we spend all day wearing shoes (which contort the feet into unnatural positions, and prevent them from flexing and bending as they need to when we walk, and deaden pretty much all feedback between your sole and the ground.) Ironically, orthotic inserts make the problem worse, not better; they're literally a crutch. The solution (according to the author) is to spend as much time barefoot, walking on uneven surfaces as possible. Obviously being barefoot for significant amounts of time is not practical for most people, so the next best thing is to wear shoes with a wide toe box and zero drop sole, or even very very thin sandals, and to make a daily practice of walking on uneven surfaces. This approach makes a lot more sense to me than what I would imagine would be recommended on this channel (ie: lay on your back, with knees bent etc...)

It works 👍👍👍
Bro which side to push?
Can chewing from the left side helps tighten up the lateral teragoid muscle
Quick explanation for yall
If your left jaw is falling more down than your right jaw than you will have to push your left jaw and if you are having right jaw falling more down than the left than you will have to push the right jaw
Thanks
Great exercise! How many sets should you do of 5-10 second holds? How often should you do this routine, every day, every other day? Thanks
Could you do a video about one side of the face being bigger than the other?
He has. I think it's called "facial asymmetry" or something close to it, where one side of the face looks a little bit squished compared to the other.
Hey, Conor. Thanks for the wonderful content.

The temporal bones do not move. They are part of the skull. It is the mandible that moves.
That's an outdated take
www.iahe.com/docs/articles/Cranial-Sutures-and-Sutural-Movement-Resources.pdf
Can growing wisdom teeth cause this issue?
couldn’t imagine caring about this. y’all are thinking about yourselves too much.
The temporal bones don’t move as they are part of the skull. It’s the mandible that moves.
A simple google search can yield information disproving the notion that cranial bones are immobile.
how many times do i have to do this a day and foe how many reps?

FOR REALLL
should we do this exercise on both sides or only the opposite side of direction our jaw is deviated?
Bruh that’s what I’m trying to figure out
So an orthodontic treatment that aligns the bite in the position we're trying to force with this exercise would be beneficial for the alignment of cranial bones in general?
I would think being in an orthodontic splint (or braces) 24/7 would be superior to doing a few reps of gentle exercises once per day.
