Question:
Is it true that the position of the jaw dictates the position of the tooth? ...Nancy
Answer:
Nancy, it is true that one of the factors in teeth position is position of the
upper and lower jaws. But there are multiple other factors affecting the position of teeth, including shortage of space in the dental arch for correct position of all the teeth, large tongue, mouth berating, premature loss of teeth and many other factors.
