Underbite

Description

An underbite—sometimes called Class III malocclusion, anterior crossbite, reverse-bite, or mandibular prognathism—is a dental condition where the lower teeth stick out past the upper teeth when you bite down. This jaw alignment issue not only affects how your smile looks but can also cause difficulties with chewing, speech, and even self-confidence. Underbites often have a genetic cause but may also result from habits or dental problems in childhood. Because underbites do not get better on their own, early and effective treatment—such as braces, clear aligners, or jaw surgery—is important to prevent long-term issues. South Korea is a leading destination for underbite correction, combining advanced technology, expert care, and cost-effective treatments to help patients achieve balanced facial profiles and improved quality of life.
