What happens during the disease - major anomalies of jaw size

Major anomalies of jaw size, or maxillofacial dysplasia, is a congenital disorder caused by a genetic mutation that results in abnormal development of the jawbone. this mutation affects the production of proteins involved in the formation of the jawbone, leading to an abnormally small or large jaw size. this can cause craniofacial deformities, such as malocclusion, asymmetrical facial features, and difficulty with chewing and speaking. treatment may involve orthodontic braces, surgery, or prosthetic devices to correct the deformities.
