square jaw


A wide lower jaw may give a more masculinization of the facial features. Think Superman!

Functionally, a square jaw is often due to enlargement of the masseter(jaw muscle). This may cause excessive wear and tear on the teeth.

Traditionally, jaw surgery is done to reduce the jaw bone and jaw muscle. Recently, botulinum toxin can be used to reduce the jaw muscle.
