The Case Against Mouth Breathing - William M Hang, DDS, MSD

In this video Dr Hang describes the facial changes for a boy that changed from breathing through his nose to breathing through his mouth - all because of a gerbil!

Welp I'll *definitely* make sure my kid breaths correctly when I'm a mom.

Literally breathing through my mouth changed my face very quickly in childhood.

I am 32 years I never knew this. I was always wondering why am not breathing through my nose. Now I have so many problems . I can’t eat without open mouth also if I try to breath through my nose I feel like am dead.

I’m 14, and have started noticing some affects of this. I have recently started exclusives breathing from my nose and holding my jaw up and forward. Because I’m not done growing, do you think that that could stop future effects or even reverse some?

No one:

Me who has never breathed through my mouth before and always have my tongue glued to my palate: 👁️👄👁️✍️

[soulfulscientist]

[MarcusCollins]

[Reaction_giver]

[ndrzzon]

My family basically treats me like a idiot when I try to teach them about this and its really sad

[ceruleanwonder]

"He'll look great in his casket when he dies early of sleep apnea". DAMN.

[danielul]

This is really important stuff. Hope you can spread the word!

[RedmercyGG]

Just tried to breath through my nose for the first time and almost suffocated cause my nose is almost always blocked. Anyone else got similar problem??

WHERE ARE YOU? IVE SPENT THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS TRYING TO FIND INTELLIGENT DOCTORS FOR ME AND MY DAUGHTER. ALL DOCTORS ARE MUCH LESS INTELLIGENT THAN YOU . YOURE GENIUS

[GregoryTheGrster]

If I remember, Mary Poppins firmly commanded the boy (Michael) to close his mouth (he was staring at his new nanny with his mouth open in astonishment). She said, "Close your mouth, Michael. You are not a fish." Luckily, he complied; if not, his face might have ended up looking like that of a fish.

Many guys can go a couple points up by this simple thing.... In school i knew many mouth breathers and many where unattractive and some where super depressed and even would get angry at me being like "that's easy for you too say" when it came to dating and hooking up with girls, this should literally be teached in school I'm serious! Could save many kids from depression, anxiety etc. And the medication that follows, less suicides and less school shooters....

[leabavec]

why has no one told me this before i’m gonna actually cry

[voluntarism]

one of the most BRUTAL lectures I've ever seen

[angelaflying]

I was mouth breather child because I life in a polluted area and that causes irritation in the nasal cavities and swollen turbinates .
I'd love to see studies about facial development on children with swollen turbinates (and thus who become mouth breathers out of necessity) and those who live in clean areas with undamaged nasal cavilities.
