Lower jaw protrusion, also known as mandibular prognathism, occurs when the lower jaw extends further than the upper jaw, causing an imbalanced bite and facial profile. This condition can lead to significant issues such as difficulty chewing, speech problems, and breathing challenges. Mandibular prognathism is often hereditary but can also result from other factors such as trauma or growth abnormalities.
