Her jaw protrudes. It does not seem to cause her any pain, but I don't think she had it with her milk teeth. Suddenly at about five months I could see her bottom teeth just shine and then I put her jaws together and Yousa! Her lower jaw is about 1/2 an inch longer than her upper.

Has anyone ever dealt with this? What happened? Will she need a surgery?
Callie, and Alice!
