The tongue is actually the number one tool you could use for beautification. The symmetry of your face and the. I'm sure a lot of people are going to be very interested now. Well, think of it's all about blood flow and your smile, the shape of your smile, the shape of your face changes as we age, as does your typical tongue posture and your tongue fitness. This is why mewing is so big, right? So John Mew was the one who pointed out that when he went and looked at indigenous cultures, they used to have very straight aligned teeth. Once they started eating foods that were cooked where they didn't have to chew as much, their teeth got all super wonky. It's because they started eating soft cooked foods when before they used to have to chew thousands of times, where now they only have to chew 5 or 10 or 20 times or 100 times. So because they weren't chewing, they weren't getting the tongue posture and the tongue fitness to keep the shape of the roof of their mouth where it's supposed to be, to keep the palate separated, to keep the spatial density there. So now all of a sudden the mouth starts collapsing in and there's no room for the teeth anymore.
