Some people only have teeth under jaw; some people not only have teeth under jaw, but also the facial bones are deformed, which is called skeletal under jaw. , Manifested as underdevelopment of the maxilla (retraction) and overdevelopment of the mandible (protrusion), resulting in a depression in the middle of the face and a crescent-shaped profile, which affects appearance and function.

4. Deep coverage: Also known as "Cracking Tooth", some only show that the upper anterior teeth are protruding or the lower anterior teeth are inverted; some are skeletal deformities. Some of these people have their upper front teeth and upper gums protruding too far forward, but their chins are shrunk behind their upper lips, or they have no chin chin shape at all.
