Joking aside clarinetters - there is a serious field of study and therapy
that addresses these mouth issues.

"Orofacial Myology/Myofunctional therapy is defined as treatment of the
orofacial musculature to improve muscle tonicity. It is the establishment
of correct functional activities of the tongue, lips, and mandible, so
that normal growth and development may take place or progress in a stable
homostatic environment. "

We've been able to avoid braces in our family with this kind of work,
which includes funny exercises like mouth puckers and sucking on buttons.
