258: My conversation with Dr. Hilary Fritsch changed the way I think about my oral health. She’s an airway dentist, which means she specializes in the link between breathing and dentistry. She explains that there is a wrong way to breathe, and it can totally ruin your facial structure. Hilary is also a pro at helping babies and small children develop a healthy, beautiful jaw, and is calling out the things that interfere with that. You'll get practical tips to help yourself and your kids build a healthy jawline and get better sleep - it's literally a win-win.

→ Why sleep apnea is a jaw disease

→ How mouth breathing is ruining your face 

→ Tips for improving your jawline
