Fig. Unfortunately a few orthodontists in their writings have denominated thischaracter of malocclusion as cases of infra-occlusion; while others quite as earnestlybelieve that they are cases of supra-occlusion; whereas, the fact is, while some ofthe cases are due to an infra-occlusal position of the front teeth, and others are dueto a supra-occlusal position of the back teeth, the greater number are due to neitherone nor the other, but to a maldevelopment of the mandible in which the ramiand body of the mandible have assumed a more obtuse angle than is normal,and which consequently prevents the occlusion of the front teeth.
