What is an overbite?
An overbite is described as a condition in which your top teeth cover your bottom teeth when biting to an increased degree. This alignment is known as a type of malocclusion, a term that describes any misaligned or crooked teeth.
It is more common to have a minor overbite, but an uncorrected overbite may lead to problems in the mouth or jaw.
Understanding face-related symptoms and features.
Symptoms may affect multiple parts of the body. Understanding which part of the body a symptom affects can help us to better understand the potential underlying causes of a symptom, including a rare disease or genetic syndrome.
The brain is the central organ of the nervous system, a system which includes not only the brain but also the sensory organs of the body, the spinal cords, and the nerves that connect them all. The nervous system is how the different parts of the body communicate with each other and control their responses to both internal and external stimuli.
Generally, symptoms affecting the brain can not be seen with the naked eye. Although diagnosing a brain-related symptom may involve different tests and assessments, both subjective and objective.
Symptoms relating to the brain may affect other parts of the body and development, including intellectual ability as well as the ability to move, speak, and other crucial bodily functions.
