Professor Mew at age 96 passed away peacefully in his castle.
He made all the discoveries in orthotropics and faced legal battles and alienation from establishment throughout his life.
But he amassed an enormous support from mewers, dentists, and changed countless lives by discovering the tropic Premise and inventing the Biobloc series to correct children and adults facial growth…saving many from surgery.
You’re a legend in every way, thank you for fighting for the truth. Orthotropics will only continue to grow!

Rest in peace to this man. He has given a lot to us through his work and research that he himself was largely unable to benefit from.
It is sad to know the preventative means that'd enable people to achieve a higher quality of life and expectancy is gently considered at best. But I think John Mew has set a strong foundation that will influence people to take a closer look at other forms of treating malocclusion, craniofacial dystrophy, and sleep apnea among other things.
We lost a great one.
My God he had a jaw of steel. RIP.
may we all mew for 96 years and eat almonds in our palliative care facility
you mean, his castle that he built by hand!!! :) for realz
Is it confirmed news?
I knew that this day would come, but I was counting on him living even past 100 years old..
He is a brilliant man, who turned the orthodontic science upside down, bringing the foundation of truth found in science and nature.
Uncovering the knowledge paved by the ancestors, almost automatic and instinctual by them, only to be acknowledged, measured, and laid out as habits to be excercised as now.
I feel sorry that I did not listen to his words about braces shortening roots of the teeth, to be fooled by the novel and experimental orthodontics forged by immense marketing and failed by the judgement of nature.
If the information is true, then orthotropics community have taken a huge loss in his departure.
The only hope is in Mike Mew, whom I send my sincere condolences, as the foundation of mewing lives on.
May the Professor John Mew, find his rest in peace, his mission has succeded in passage to the new age.
Mike confirmed it earlier today on Facebook
Mike’s Facebook post
You wrote wonderfully @RisenWolf. Mike is not our only hope, there are others spread across the world and some too here in London working on huge projects changing orthodontics.
We as followers must carry on educating our friends, family and colleagues on the truth about faces and teeth.
Rip he responded to my email last year 🥺
Thank you for your gift to humanity and the rest of the world, eternal peace be with you.
When did he die?
He passed away on Wednesday morning peacefully in his bed, after being sent home from a few days in hospital.
Mike announced on Facebook earlier today.
He will go down in decades as a retrospective knighthood...
The establishment know they are correct, unfortunately sometimes it has a lagging delay.
RIP
Rest in peace. Thank you for your contribution.

Rest in peace to a genius and a legend

RIP
Rest in peace. What a legend. He lived in a castle too, what a damn G. I wish his children and family healthy grieving, may his utter innovations live on through his loved ones and supporters.
Rest in peace John Mew. Thank you for everything
What a wonderful legacy he left. My condolences to his family 🤍
My struggle with death is not understanding how it can be "peaceful" if our entire lives are spent trying to avoid it, yet I've heard it described this way many times. Who's to say there isn't an excruciating internal battle before the moment comes? I hope it was peaceful but man, I'm not looking forward to finding out.
Thank you for everything. RIP John Mew.
Rest in peace. May mewing live on forever and become the new norm
Yes, he invented mewing. But how does he have a fucking castle.
He built one
RIP..
Thank you you helped me in my battles. May you have the best. 🙏
Rip 🙏
I can't believe I'm only just getting the news. I feel sad. He fought his whole life to better the world. He deserves to rest at peace.
Often, the people we need the most are those willing, strong, and dedicated enough to turn an industry on its head by aggressively finding the truth.
John was that person. I'm glad he pushed to new frontiers of orthodontics and changed countless lives — including future lives that will be improved be knowing the information he found.
And I hope that the broader medical community appreciates the Mews in the way that they deserve for their contributions to all of us.
I'm beyond sorry that he passed. Massive condolences to Mike Mew.
Respect
RIP to the legend
Looks like Mew, mewed his last Mew.
I feel like people here will want to know that Dr Mike Mew is gathering people to help his legal battle. (I was trying to find one of Mike's pages when I landed here...) He announced this on his YT channel ~ also that he has started 3 times on reddit and can't find any of them lol I feel him - I'm 'old' too and haven't mastered navigating here.
Please post the links in reply to my comment if you know them! Thanks!
Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and you shall be saved he heals the broken in heart and binds up their wounds. Hopefully he got saved by Jesus before it was too late.
That what I was thinking because I heard he was an atheist lord have grace
Hopefully, he did
