Medical Conditions - Underbite

A lower jaw that extends past the upper jaw is referred to as an underbite. A Class III malocclusion, known clinically as a prognathism, may result in pain, discomfort, and self-consciousness. Malocclusion severity can range from mild to severe. Underbites result in difficulties and additional jaw problems. An underbite is frequently accompanied by chronic jaw pain, sometimes known as TMJ disorder. The front teeth may become harmed by an underbite. This makes them more prone to cracking or chipping.
