    Welcome to TMJ Unlocked, the laid-back podcast exploring the importance of airway orthodontics.

    Each week, we break down the science behind TMJ disorders, share real-life cases, and explain why straight teeth don’t always mean a healthy bite. Whether you’re a patient, parent, or provider, we help you connect the dots and understand what went wrong and how to move forward.
