       Opposite Forces & Bite

       Someone on CP's site, commented that every action, has an equal
       and opposite action.  Therefore, pushing the tongue too
       forcefully on the palate, can create just as much force, pushing
       downwards, which may cause facial lengthening.   They said, if
       the face feels tight, the maxilla can’t move forwards against
       tight muscles, either.
       But, as long as the upwards force is gentle, keeping the teeth
       in full contact would offset any opposing, downward force,
       wouldn't it?
       That said, when you're face-pulling (especially with a belt, or
       a mouthguard), it's hard to keep the teeth in full contact.
       Also, what if, when the face is left to fully relax, all of the
       teeth and the lips tend to slightly, lose contact...Would face
       pulling retrude the upper teeth and create more distance between
       the top and bottom and lengthen the face, over time?

       It's true for the tongue because it's placed between both the
       maxilla and the jaw
       Third law of Newton, For every action, there is an equal and
       opposite reaction.
       The thing is that your tongue is not supposed to push, it's
       supposed to hold the maxilla, locking it only to grow forward
       and not downwards. That's why oral posture has a mild effect on
       adults; they're not growing anymore.
       It's different for face pulling because you're not "pushing"
       you're "pulling" and the interaction is made between your face
       pulling device and the maxilla

       Ah, gotcha.  Thanks for clearing that up! So, it doesn't matter
       if my teeth are in contact or not, when I'm face pulling.  But
       will the interaction with the device, cause the upper teeth to
       retrude? I'm a bit worried about this, especially as I have a
       'tongue-between-molars' posture due to lack of space, and I tend
       to mouth breathe when I'm asleep...

       No, your teeth will not retrude, you don't have to worry about
       that.
       Take this as an example:

       Your teeth will only HOLD their place until you provide a force
       enough to move them, they will not move backward

       Well, that's one thing less to worry about! Thanks @Improvement
       Last week, I tried face pulling for the first time, by clenching
       my molars down on the middle of a ribbon, and pulling the ends,
       up.  I've been worried ever since.  Firstly, because I felt
       aches in my forehead and the area just above my eyebrows. (I'm
       female, so I don't want a thickened ridge above my brows!). No
       feelings in my cheekbones, either.
       Secondly, I've now got a tiny bit of sclera showing under the
       right iris. (Got a little under my left iris, but it's been like
       that for years, and has remained unchanged).  I don't think my
       face has lengthened-looks much the same.  Plus, on another
       thread, it was suggested that, maybe my head posture had
       improved, but my maxilla has yet to swing up.
       But, I've been scared that I damaged myself; that the face
       pulling is doing something to the top of my skull (which is
       narrow), or even, that it was rotating my maxilla the wrong way,
       somehow!  I had to be awkward..

       I recommend you to take photos every week.
       If you're serious about this you should avoid measuring changes
       with your own perception which could not be accurate all the
       time; your mind can mislead you, or a placebo effect can take
       place. When you're under this kind of procedure in which your
       appearance can be messed or fixed you want to be completely sure
       that you're going to the right place
       By taking photos, you evade the danger of realizing too late
       that you were undergoing an unbeneficial treatment
       I cannot give you a word on what happened because I don't
       believe in short-hard forces to remodel bones. I think that your
       neck received too much stress, and now it's tilting your head
       down

       You're right.  It probably is my perception because I'm paying
       more attention to things that didn't bother me, before.  Now
       that I'm trying to make changes, I'm taking notice of every
       little thing.  For example, I didn't realise that my head
       posture, when looking in the mirror, is rarely straight on.
       Either, my head is tilted back/eyes down, or it's tilted
       forward/eyes up. Now, I'm noticing how my eyes look with the
       correct posture.
       That said, the sclera isn't terrible.  Not at all.  In fact,
       someone would only notice if they're really close up.  But,
       because I'm aware that there isn't supposed to be any at all,
       I'm more picky about it, I guess....
       I've re-started face pulling, but more gently this time.  Think
       my face looks a tad fuller?  But, other times, I think I'm
       imagining it!  Not sure what the feelings are above my eyes...
       Perhaps the pulling is doing something to my sinuses.
       Will proceed with caution from now on, just in case it's not
       helping, as you say.  But, if things improve, I wouldn't rule
       out some self-NCR in the future, if I can learn how to do it.

       Yes, things look really different when you put a keen eye on
       them
       Keep your thread updated with results of your face pulling if
       you can :), that way people may have a clue on what is working
       and what is not
       It's awesome that you're considering NCR, I give you my word
       that it truly works, is not a miracle as some people make it
       look but after some time it shows results.
       Also, remember that this is not a race, everything that is worth
       of being proud of it is not easy to obtain. Keep your focus and
       determination, life will provide what you're asking for, give it
       time.
