Malocclusion refers to the misalignment of teeth or a mismatch in upper and lower jaw positioning when the jaws close. It is a common dental issue that can affect the visual harmony of the grin but also their capacity to eat efficiently, their speech clarity, and their ability to clean teeth effectively.



Class I malocclusion is the most common type. In this case, the upper and lower teeth meet as intended, meaning the incisors have standard overbite. However, additional complications can arise like teeth overlap, gaps between teeth, or malpositioned molars. Even though the jaw alignment is mostly correct, these dental irregularities can hinder proper brushing and flossing and increase the risk of decay and gum disease.



Overbite (Retrognathism) occurs when the upper teeth and jaw significantly protrude. This can cause the chin to look set back. It is often genetic but can also be triggered by chronic pacifier use. People with this type may experience difficulty biting into food or may develop jaw pain over time.



Type III malocclusion is the reverse pattern of Class II. Here, the mandible protrudes beyond the maxilla. This can lead to problems with chewing, speech issues, and visible jaw imbalance. It is often due to inherited skeletal structure or abnormal jaw growth during development.



Crossbite is another type where maxillary teeth are positioned lingual to mandibular teeth when the jaws are closed. This can occur in the incisors or the back teeth (posterior crossbite). A crossbite can lead to excessive attrition, gum recession, and jaw misalignment if left untreated.



Open bite is characterized by an absence of contact between incisors when the back teeth are biting together. This can make it difficult to bite into food and may contribute to speech issues like lisping. Open bites are often linked to habits such as thumb sucking, abnormal tongue posture, or extended bottle feeding.



Overjet is sometimes mistaken for Class II malocclusion, 鐘ヶ淵 矯正歯科 but it specifically refers to the horizontal distance between the upper and lower front teeth. When this distance is too large, the incisors protrude prominently, increasing the risk of injury during falls or sports.



Each type of malocclusion has distinct consequences for daily oral performance. Early detection and intervention, in pediatric patients, can avoid complex dental complications. Corrective appliances like aligners, or select surgical options, can realign the dental arches. Regular dental checkups and early orthodontic evaluations are critical for accurate diagnosis and selecting the most effective correction strategy.
