Bite disorders, or malocclusions, affect far more than appearance — they can change how we chew, speak, and even how our jaws feel day to day. In this episode, Simon Coghlan explains the different types of bite problems, from overbites and crossbites to open bites, and the health issues they can cause if left untreated. Learn how orthodontics, surgery, and physiotherapy can help restore comfort, function, and confidence.
