A member asked:
My teeth are protuding - need advice to fix this?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See a Pro: If front teeth stick out all the upper teeth may be too far forward, lower teeth may be too far back, jaws may be malaligned, gum disease may be causing shifting. Start with an orthodontist to evaluate occlusion. Orthodontist will work w your general dentist and perhaps periodontist to resolve your problem.
