Open Wide is a documentary about John Mew, a man whose strange and controversial ideas about reshaping the human jawline ended up taking TikTok by storm. For decades he’s waged a lonely war against orthodontics and that teenage rite of passage - braces. With his son now taking up the fight, the Mews' fringe theories have turned into a full-blown online sensation.

But even while mewing goes viral on TikTok and the Mews churn out content for their millions of followers, Mike is pursued by the British Orthodontic Society and threatened with expulsion by the very people who took away his father's license.
