Out of curiosity, even if you do it for less than an hour a day as an adult? I don’t think it’s a good idea, but I’d be surprised if occasionally doing it after your bones have finished growing would cause huge problems. I don’t know anything about dentistry or anything relevant though, so I could totally be wrong.

According to a book I read (Breath by James Nestor) you can shape this part of your body your entire life. There are devices that will widen your jaw to help you breathe. Mewing also relies on your body’s ability to reshape itself. I would very strongly not recommend to suck on your thumb as an adult!

Huh, good to know. I wasn’t planning on sucking my thumb, but there are probably other things to avoid with that in mind. I’ll look into that book.
