What would be a way to get someone to stop chewing with their mouth open?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Conscious Effort: It should be as simple as an awareness of the habit and conscious effort, along with determination to stop. Constant reminders from others may be necessary. It usually requires time and patience. This assumes no anatomical or mental deficiencies.
