2 main Reasons for imperfect or wide jaws-

  • It totally depends on the genetic factors.  If the person’s parents/grandparents have wide jaws, then they will certainly have wide jaws.
  • Because of acromegaly growth hormones there is a chance of extra growth of organs.
  • This is the second important reason for unwanted growth of the jaw.
  • This problem can also occur due to repeated chewing of gums, clenching of teeth and grinding of teeth while sleeping at night..
