The upper and lower teeth are tightly clenched on both sides of the cheek. The most difficult thing is the masseter muscle.
If only the cheeks are fat, it means that the masseter is big, and if the whole is big, it means that the bones are big.
There is another way you can try:
Gently support your face: put your hands on your chin, gently massage and lift.
Rub your cheeks: Keep your palms close to your cheeks, and then massage your skin from the inside out, which takes about 1 minute.
Chin support: gently support chin with both hands and do it rhythmically, about 1 minute.
In fact, there are many massage methods in life that can make the masseter muscle smaller. As long as you observe carefully and keep exercising, you can not only easily eliminate the masseter muscle, but also maintain it.
The masseter muscle is the main executive muscle of occlusal action. It works with buccal muscle, temporal muscle, medial pterygoid muscle, lateral pterygoid muscle and orbicularis oris muscle to complete chewing action. The superficial fibers come from the anterior 2/3 of the zygomatic arch, and the deep fibers come from the posterior zygomatic arch 1/3 and its inner surface. It is a square muscle with strong thickness, and the fibers go downward and backward, covering the outer surface of mandibular branch and stopping at the outer surface of mandibular branch and masseter tuberosity. When you grind your teeth hard, the hard parts on both sides of your cheeks are the masseter muscles. Therefore, the masseter muscle is an important factor affecting the appearance of the lower half of the face.
1. The human masticatory muscles include masseter, temporal muscle, medial pterygoid muscle and lateral pterygoid muscle, so the occurrence of masseter hypertrophy is generally considered to be related to people's chewing habits and eating habits. If you often eat hard food in your diet or have the habit of eating snacks and chewing gum.
Second, masseter muscle hypertrophy is related to genetic factors. In fact, there is indeed familial masseter hypertrophy in clinic.
Third, the causes of masseter hypertrophy are often accompanied by mandibular angle hypertrophy and mandibular angle valgus, so it is clinically called mandibular angle hypertrophy or masseter benign hypertrophy.
