Underbite
What is underbite?
Class 3 malocclusion (underbite) is when the upper teeth are positioned behind the lower teeth. This is usually due to the upper jaw being too small, or the lower jaw being too large
Treatment
Orthognathic surgery (jaw surgery) for underbite
The specific treatment for underbite depends on the overall proportions of your upper jaw, your lower jaw, and your chin. Surgery can include any of the following techniques:
✅ LeFort 1 osteotomy (upper jaw surgery)
✅ Bilateral sagittal split osteotomy (BSSO - lower jaw surgery)
