Four common types of uneven teeth Now, parents are very concerned about whether their children’s teeth are neat and beautiful. Today, we will introduce four more common types of uneven teeth.
1. Open the jaw No matter when the mouth is opened or closed, the upper teeth cannot touch the lower teeth, just like the picture (the picture shows the front teeth open). Opening the jaw will affect the appearance, the smile will not be so good-looking, and the child may lose self-confidence.
2. Underbite underbite is what is often said to be “earth-bound”, in which the lower teeth bite on the outside of the upper teeth. If the underbite is not corrected at an early stage, it will cause a bad occlusal relationship between the teeth. The result is not only damage to the teeth, but also inefficient chewing of food, which affects the child’s absorption of nutrients. In many cases, the upper teeth will bite the gums of the lower teeth, and the tongue is often bitten.
3. Deep overbite Deep overbite is when the upper front teeth completely cover the lower front teeth, so that the teeth cannot function normally, and the lower teeth are more likely to bite the upper gums and cause damage.
4. Buck teeth The “buck teeth” that people often mention refers to maxillary protrusion or bimaxillary protrusion. The upper and lower teeth are significantly forward, making our lips too protruding, and even unable to close naturally, which is very unsightly.
