Protruding Chin

Description

A protruding chin—also known as a “prominent chin,” “underbite,” “Habsburg jaw,” or “Class III malocclusion”—occurs when the chin or lower jaw extends too far forward, upsetting the natural balance of the face. Sometimes called “prognathism” or “protrusive chin,” this noticeable jaw alignment issue can lead not only to aesthetic concerns but also to difficulties with chewing, speech, and dental health. Causes range from genetics and family traits to jaw growth differences or underlying health conditions. For those seeking an effective treatment, South Korea is recognized for its world-class chin surgery (genioplasty) and corrective jaw surgery, combining advanced techniques with affordable care for international patients. If you’re experiencing a chin that sticks out or an “undershot jaw,” you’ll find expert help and customized solutions for both cosmetic improvement and better daily comfort.
