Subscriber-only episodeJoey opens up about years of sinus struggles and how mouth breathing has affected his sleep and general energy levels. Better breathing has profound connections to jaw development, facial structure, and better sleep.

We also go deep into the waters of jaw development, discussing how our modern lifestyles have altered our dental destiny, often leading to the common rite of passage—wisdom teeth removal.
