"If you see a friend without a smile, give him one of yours." ~Proverb

Underbite

An underbite refers to the condition in which your lower teeth protrude over your front teeth. This usually is caused by:

Overgrowth of your lower jaw
Undergrowth of your upper jaw
A combination of both
Flared lower incisors

Early correction of an underbite is highly recommended as it can:

Prevent proper functioning of your molars or front teeth, leading to premature wear of your teeth
Lead to difficulty chewing
Create jaw or joint problems
Cause chewing or eating problems
Make your smile less attractive
