why do they have buck teeth.?Health Question & Answer


Answers:
I work in a dental office.. Some people have a gap in between their teeth because of what is called a thick maxillary frenum, this is a very fibrous tissue between the teeth that keeps them from coming together.. Usually, as we grow from infancy, this tissue thins out and pulls up, allowing the teeth to come in normally.. When it doesn't they have a space, or a dyastima.. Buck teeth can come from a sucking habit as a child, or just be hereditary..Health Question & Answer
