Bad bites, also known as malocclusion, is a bite that does not align properly. It is the most common dental problem, yet many of us are unaware of what it could do to us. If a bad bite is left untreated, not only will it affect the structure of our face and our jaw, it can also go as far as affecting our spine, thus causing issues such as headaches, neck strains, and muscle spasms.

On today’s health and wellness show, we speak to Dr Beh Wee Ren, Clinical Consultant and Implantologist and Council Member of Malaysian Oral Implantology Association (MOIA) to go in depth with the audience about the most common signs and symptoms of a bad bite, as well as ways that parents can help to maintain their children’s teeth to ensure this dental problem does not happen.

At the end of the conversations, Dr. Beh also shares some general advice on how to properly care for our teeth.
