Irregularities with your mouth and teeth, as well as certain abnormalities or irregularities with your facial features, are typically treated by specialists in orthodontic dentistry.
The most common problems treated by orthodontists are related to overbites and underbites.
A bad bite is an improper relationship between your upper and lower teeth; crooked or crowded teeth are often the culprit.
This is also called a "malocclusion."
A malocclusion, which can happen over time or is inherited, can be treated with such dental appliances as braces, which are designed to restore your oral features (jaws, teeth and lips) into their proper balance.

A malocclusion, which can happen over time or is inherited, can be treated with such dental appliances as braces, which are designed to restore your oral features (jaws, teeth and lips) into their proper balance.
Malocclusions are fairly common in children (as well as adults).
While some malocclusions are so minor that no treatment would provide a demonstrable benefit, serious malocclusions may require intervention in the form of appliances such as braces.
For this reason, regular dental checkups are critical because they provide an opportunity for a dental professional to spot small problems before they become big ones.
During a routine exam, your dentist may be able to determine if the child's jaws are growing properly and at the same rate.
