Speaker 1 (00:00):
Is there a breakdown underbyte, overbite? Nobody has perfectly aligned teeth.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
I'm sure you can find someone for perfect where the
alignment of teeth is perfect. Again, that's numbers right there
with five intercepts. But you just want to break down.
Speaker 3 (00:21):
Yeah, is there.
Speaker 1 (00:22):
Is there a breakdown of what percentage of people have
an underbite? What percentage of people have an overbite, and
what percentage of people have a perfectly aligned mouth.
Speaker 2 (00:33):
So the problem with percentages when it comes to overbite
and underbite is that it gives you the extension beyond
your teeth and how far it is.
Speaker 3 (00:43):
Oh wait, so what does that say?
Speaker 2 (00:45):
If your upper teeth extend beyond your lower teeth by
more than twenty percent, you have an overbite?
Speaker 3 (00:51):
Oh wait? So do I not have an overbite? Because mine?
Speaker 1 (00:56):
Mine are my front teeth come over my top teeth,
come over my bottom teeth.
Speaker 3 (01:02):
But there's barely there's barely. If I used a measuring tape,
it's maybe two hairs.
Speaker 2 (01:08):
Maybe you don't have a deep bite, which would be
where you have it to the extreme.
Speaker 3 (01:14):
What is that called? I believe those people sound like
Diane was talking.
Speaker 4 (01:18):
Good. Now, that's an overbite greater than fifty percent.
Speaker 2 (01:23):
I don't even know what that would look like, but
more than se i'd be funny, more than seventy percent
of people have an overbite.
Speaker 3 (01:29):
Okay, that would to me that sounds normal, but.
Speaker 5 (01:31):
They said yeah, but even they said a slight one
is considered normal.
Speaker 3 (01:35):
Yes, yeah, yeah, I have a very slight one.
Speaker 4 (01:37):
Yes.
Speaker 2 (01:38):
The majority of those seventy percent, according to the academy
that cited that number, says it's a considerably small.
Speaker 4 (01:44):
Overbe Yeah, exactly right.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
And knowing that I was going to get into this,
I've been looking at people's teeth all day and like
people on television, people in the office, just everywhere. So
many people have an overbite. But it's not dramatic. You
wouldn't look at them and go like that person's jaws jacked.
Now talk to me about an underbite. Underbite is where
(02:07):
your bottom teeth are out further than your top teeth,
where your bottom jaw is almost like a cash register,
right where you.
Speaker 4 (02:16):
Look like a bulldog.
Speaker 1 (02:18):
Very good, Diane, Very good. So Nicholas Valentine has an underbite, yes,
Dustin's dog. What is that? That's more rare? So that
would be thirty percent.
Speaker 2 (02:33):
Now they say one in twenty, So more people have
perfect alignment than you think.
Speaker 3 (02:37):
Really, but what about underbyte? What about underbyte one in twenty?
But underbyte isn't perfect alignment?
Speaker 2 (02:45):
No, I know, but they're saying it's about five percent
of the population. The other one was seventy some percent, right,
and you've got a quarter left there that are good
to go?
Speaker 1 (02:55):
Oh wow, So what is my percentage? I'm sorry, what's
my percentage of people who have an unite? What about?
Speaker 3 (03:03):
What do they call an extreme underbite? I know what?
They call it? Unfortunate?
Speaker 4 (03:11):
Do they also say deep.
Speaker 3 (03:15):
Cold too? That's a urinal joke, Diane.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
Anyway, it is a form of dental misalignment, yes, with
a great protrusion.
Speaker 4 (03:29):
Severe.
Speaker 2 (03:32):
It is described on a case by case basis by
the degree of the malocclusion.
Speaker 3 (03:39):
Christian, will you do me a favor?
Speaker 1 (03:41):
Will you find me somebody who has a significant underbite?
Speaker 3 (03:46):
Please? Like enough where it bothers.
Speaker 4 (03:49):
Them, like enough, Relia can hear it?
Speaker 1 (03:54):
Yesh's not moving your jaw?
Speaker 2 (04:00):
Yes, No, you're that's not natural. Talk like you would
normally and protrude.
Speaker 3 (04:07):
Christine L.
Speaker 1 (04:13):
Craft, what I don't know how to talk?
Speaker 3 (04:17):
It's like this, It's like that.

Speaker 1 (04:34):
First of all, you spit like crazy if you have
an underbike, have you controlled that to spit? The bottom
of my nose is soaking wet eight six six.
Speaker 4 (04:44):
Two three five five eight. Your nose is like a dog.
Speaker 3 (04:52):
You got an underbite? I need you please.
Speaker 4 (05:00):
Oh, some doctor should just call it bad bite.
Speaker 6 (05:02):
No, du.
Speaker 4 (05:07):
That doesn't really soften the blow in the office.
Speaker 3 (05:09):
No, the co workers, Oh, you're coach Elliot.
Speaker 4 (05:16):
Under bye Elliot. I feel like the front desk could
have diagnosed that. But thanks doc.
Speaker 1 (05:24):
Yeah, Christian, will you see if you can find me
somebody who has a uh like a pretty good underbite
where it's it's out there, it's out there mine four
keep them coming eight six eight eight two cheeks.
Speaker 3 (05:38):
Two three five five four six eight.
Speaker 4 (05:42):
Who knows what you'll get, because there's some quite a few.
Speaker 3 (05:44):
Reasons oh as to why you would have Yeah.
Speaker 4 (05:49):
We keep mentioning the jaw.
Speaker 1 (05:50):
It's not just the jaw, but it's not like thumbsucking
or something like that.
Speaker 3 (05:56):
That's buck teeth.
Speaker 4 (05:57):
But but well crooked teeth could cause.
Speaker 1 (06:02):
Oh really, oh, just because like physically you can't close
because your teeth are exploded.
Speaker 2 (06:08):
Or what is it called when you have like too
many teeth in your mouth? It's it's crowded. But what's
the action?
Speaker 7 (06:13):
No?
Speaker 3 (06:14):
No, no, no, no what shark mouth? The no?
Speaker 1 (06:17):
No, not shark teeth. No, there there is there is
that that does have a name. It's got a weird
name too. Isn't it after isn't it after an animal?
You got like hyena teeth or something like that. I
don't think it's shark mouth.
Speaker 4 (06:32):
No, no, but because they have all the extra rows
of teeth.
Speaker 1 (06:35):
No, but these aren't road I like when you get
that tooth that's growing out of the hard palate.
Speaker 4 (06:40):
What's what's that called?
Speaker 1 (06:42):
I know what it's called smoking during pregnancy.
Speaker 2 (06:51):
I just see crowding here. But to them, I am
being told her missing one other type of fight. I
only drink beer.
Speaker 1 (07:03):
Yeah, you could take an extra long bite because you
two with these teeth and the ones inside your mouth.
Speaker 8 (07:14):
Hummm stuff, Oh goodness, where my god?
Speaker 2 (07:29):
So you might get that fourth type of what is
that having covered one? Which one that wait over under
healthy healthy.
Speaker 3 (07:39):
Healthy, right over under healthy.
Speaker 2 (07:41):
But somebody perhaps suffering from it, or that disagreed with
the percentages, says, there is another slice of the pie.
Speaker 3 (07:49):
Gotcha for for over and or under?
Speaker 2 (07:52):
No for another a different type of bite, different type
of bite, open bite, Like.
Speaker 4 (07:59):
They can't physically close their mouth. I've never heard. I
thought you were going to go like a kimber.
Speaker 1 (08:06):
No, isn't that cold? Isn't that called cross cross stitch? No,
that's what Donna did?
Speaker 6 (08:10):
What?
Speaker 1 (08:11):
No, that's got a name. Where like this sight hold
on one second, line six.
Speaker 2 (08:15):
Hold on, line up, and it's it's off to the side,
frambervel catch her last night?
Speaker 1 (08:22):
No, but like you're right the on on the top
deck the side. The teeth on the right are really
long and the teeth on the left are really short.
Speaker 3 (08:31):
It's like a puzzle.
Speaker 1 (08:32):
But it's like you can't close your mouth because over
here you're breaking you're breaking everything, and over here you
could shove a hot dog in I can't.
Speaker 3 (08:40):
It's is it called crossbite cross something? Yeah? There it is.
Speaker 4 (08:44):
Oh, never mind.
Speaker 2 (08:45):
Oh your jaws are good, but your teeth don't touch.
Speaker 4 (08:56):
Like here. It is that's a there is.
Speaker 1 (09:00):
There it is in action, not you know what. That's
not as bad as I thought it was gonna be.
I imagine you get a lot of dry gums on that.
Let me ask you something.
Speaker 4 (09:11):
You're gonna notice if people's teeth don't touch.
Speaker 3 (09:13):
Oh, I hope so. Hi, Elliot in the morning. Yeah, Hi,

Speaker 2 (09:51):
Instagram is wondering this DM if you're just gonna make
fun of these people the entire segment, or if you.
Speaker 3 (09:56):
Have you I have useful information. I have useful information.
I also had a scampy shrimp.
Speaker 4 (10:07):
Who's this going to be for though?
Speaker 1 (10:09):
Under bites under bites Line four? Hi, Ellie in the morning,
I need under bites. Hello, Hello, Hello, I got you Hello.
Speaker 3 (10:25):
Yo yo underbite? Hello? I have you who are you
talking to? You're repeating me to somebody? Hello, Yes it.
Speaker 5 (10:42):
Is it is you. Woman just said, are you sure
that's you? Yes, it's you, it's you.
Speaker 9 (10:48):
Yes.
Speaker 4 (10:48):
Oh my god, Jesus sorry.
Speaker 1 (10:50):
I know.
Speaker 3 (10:54):
Oh wait wait a severe underbite.
Speaker 7 (10:57):
Uh yeah, like my bottom teeth for trude in front
of my top teeth I've had. I had braces from
second grade until ten trades are corrected, so now they
almost line up, but it still looks light underbite.
Speaker 1 (11:11):
You had braces from second grade until tenth grade?
Speaker 3 (11:16):
Yeah, Oh my god, dude, that is that's the recondu.
That is. That's a long I've got. I've never heard of.
I've never heard of that.
Speaker 7 (11:25):
Every every single tooth was really crooked. I had like
a really rare like jaw setup. So they had to
start with like a couple braces and then gradually ad
them until I had a full mouth.
Speaker 10 (11:37):
In ten trades.
Speaker 3 (11:39):
Hey, So let me ask you this.
Speaker 1 (11:41):
Did you ever, in the course of it with your parents,
did you ever have a discussion about getting your underbyte
operated on?
Speaker 3 (11:50):
Uh?
Speaker 7 (11:51):
Yeah, But basically they said the operation would have been
like very expensive and like just as successful as the braces,
and because I was still able to like chew food,
and I didn't really it wasn't really noticeable unless I
showed my teeth, So it was just easier to kind
of like face it gradually rather than do a pretty
(12:13):
big surgery.
Speaker 1 (12:15):
Dude, I was reading about this woman, twenty six year
old woman. She has a pretty severe, very severe underbite,
and she had the surgery done.
Speaker 3 (12:29):
Holy f bro, you didn't mess her up. She looks great.
I'm not gonna lie. She looks great.
Speaker 1 (12:37):
I also have the well, Elliott, you sound awesome, like
you don't sound like you're jacked up.
Speaker 4 (12:43):
You're hearing.
Speaker 7 (12:44):
Yeah, you sent me to limbusit last summer. Actually, I
wanted to say thanks again for that.
Speaker 3 (12:48):
Oh, you're very welcome. You're very welcome. The Yeah.
Speaker 5 (12:51):
So does she have to pay out a pocket for it?
Because it's, like he said, maybe they would consider that
to be well, if it's not like harming your day
to day life, then maybe it's considered to be cosmetic.
Speaker 3 (13:03):
You know what, I don't. I don't know the answer
to that.
Speaker 1 (13:05):
I just know that she had double jaw surgery to
correct her huge underbite, and it shared photos of her
journey along with her finished winning smile.
Speaker 3 (13:14):
Louisa McDermott is her name.
Speaker 1 (13:16):
She was nine years old when she developed a three
centimeter underbite.
Speaker 3 (13:20):
Do you remember what yours was?
Speaker 7 (13:24):
I don't think it was three centimeters. That sounds like
a lot. Maybe maybe one or two.
Speaker 1 (13:32):
Okay, centimeters are small, so two to three, I mean
that's I mean, you're pretty close.
Speaker 10 (13:41):
Fair enough?
Speaker 3 (13:42):
Yeah, all right, very good, very good, thank you.
Speaker 1 (13:45):
But when you look at pictures like that's her now, Okay,
that's her now?
Speaker 3 (13:48):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (13:49):
No, if you saw that, that's actually eleven weeks after
she got the surgery done.
Speaker 3 (13:54):
Do you have there? Could you find the before picture
of this.
Speaker 4 (13:56):
Young lady if I click through?
Speaker 3 (13:59):
Yeah, yeah, because she's got pictures of everything.
Speaker 5 (14:02):
Oh wow, that was that before and that's with brace's Yeah,
because you said she found out that this when she
was really young, she was nine.
Speaker 4 (14:12):
I don't think I've ever seen it that bad before.
Speaker 1 (14:17):
I'll tell you what if anything ever comes out of
her nose and goes right into her mouth. Score anyway,
that was needless to say she was self conscious.
Speaker 4 (14:30):
How old is she.
Speaker 3 (14:32):
In that picture?
Speaker 4 (14:33):
Is this right before the surgery?
Speaker 3 (14:35):
Yes? Yeah, so early twenties?
Speaker 4 (14:40):
Damn? Or are you feel so bad for her?
Speaker 3 (14:44):
It started to affect her confidence.
Speaker 1 (14:45):
When she was a teenager, people would say, your jaw
is massive.
Speaker 2 (14:51):
Thanks, so you didn't attribute those self as the issues
to her, she speaks to them.
Speaker 1 (14:56):
Yes, Kristen, She said, my job made me really unhappy
and I hated having photos. The comments didn't bother me
as much as they should because I always knew that
I'd be getting the surgery one day, so.
Speaker 3 (15:13):
She was she knew one day, that's years down the road.
Speaker 1 (15:16):
You got to deal with that, but you know there's
something you can do about it. She had to go
to the hospital every six weeks to see if her
teeth were ready for the surgery. She also was afraid
to go away to go to school because she was
(15:37):
afraid that either a she wouldn't be able to make
it in for an appointment, or they would say yes,
now's the time, and she'd be like, I have to
drop out of school. Oh that stacks.
Speaker 4 (15:46):
This completely set her life back in more ways than one.
Speaker 1 (15:50):
It took eight years while she was wearing braces before
she got cleared for her double jaw surgery.
Speaker 2 (15:56):
Aally, that's the caller second to tenth grade. Yeah, and
what do they do during the surgery?
Speaker 3 (16:04):
By the way, they said.
Speaker 1 (16:06):
When she got to the hospital for the surgery, they
were trying to calm her down.
Speaker 3 (16:10):
She was running up and down the hallways.
Speaker 1 (16:12):
Skipping with joy because so was excited. Yes, the full
recovery time is just over eighteen months. You're on liquid
diet for two weeks. You have to eat through a straw,
and then she could eat mashed potatoes. After the surgery
was so uncomfortable. I couldn't swallow and I couldn't feel
(16:33):
my teeth. I needed twenty four to seven care. I
had to be fed, and I couldn't go to the toilet.
Why wouldn't you be able to go to the toilet
because your jaws jacked up?
Speaker 4 (16:44):
Is she on a ton of painkillers?
Speaker 1 (16:46):
Or is it like she's not eating anything therefore there's
nothing go toilet?
Speaker 6 (16:52):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (16:52):
Is she using toilet like you do sometimes? What do
you mean when you say, oh, I have to go bathroom?
Speaker 3 (17:00):
Okay?
Speaker 1 (17:00):
Oh no, no, But I meant like she doesn't have
to she doesn't have to poop.
Speaker 2 (17:03):
Right, But we initially, and that's what I think Diane
thought from the painkillers that she couldn't physically go into
the bathroom.
Speaker 3 (17:09):
Oh she can't get up?
Speaker 1 (17:11):
Well no, I mean the old pictures it looked like
she trip over that jaw, but not the new ones.
Speaker 3 (17:16):
Yeah, but she was probably quite swollen, actually so much so.
Speaker 1 (17:19):
My eyes were swollen shut. I couldn't see out out
of my eyes. My cheek, neck, lips, and chin were
swollen and bruised. I used to get nosebleeds all the time.
I know where that would drip.
Speaker 4 (17:32):
Here's a blindfold, go to the bathroom.
Speaker 1 (17:36):
What does she say, though, it's worth every ounce of pain.
I wasn't scared. I didn't care about the pain. Can
you see this picture?
Speaker 10 (17:46):
Yes?
Speaker 4 (17:46):
What do you notice in this picture she's drooling a little.
Speaker 3 (17:50):
No, she's got a lot of drool coming out of
that mouth. But in their photo it looks like she'll
never be ever talk. She looks great.
Speaker 2 (18:03):
She's claiming here with this one caption that people don't
recognize her.
Speaker 3 (18:06):
I believe it.
Speaker 4 (18:08):
I mean, same glasses. Okay, how long it was the recovery?
Speaker 3 (18:14):
Just over eighteen months?
Speaker 4 (18:16):
Wow?
Speaker 1 (18:17):
Man, I'm still struggling to eat and choose solids. I've
got a couple of needles in my chin and I
can't move my top lip. She will be getting her
braces removed, which she's due to get done in January.
She has such newfound confidence. Her friends do a double
(18:37):
take when they see her.
Speaker 4 (18:40):
I can't beat that.
Speaker 1 (18:41):
My colleagues didn't recognize me when they first saw me.
Speaker 3 (18:44):
Yeah they did.
Speaker 1 (18:46):
No, I mean, if Diane came in here tomorrow with
a different jaw, I would still know it's Diane, but
it would.
Speaker 3 (18:53):
I think they're just trying to make a point.
Speaker 4 (18:54):
Now, let's take it to the extreme.
Speaker 3 (18:56):
The no. No, that's what I'm saying. I think they
recognized her.
Speaker 2 (18:59):
ABC works in a larger office, so some of these
people she doesn't see.
Speaker 5 (19:04):
Every day, and if she's so self conscious, she's keeping
like out of the main part.
Speaker 2 (19:10):
Remember what people used to say about her, Oh she
had a massive jaw.
Speaker 3 (19:14):
That's true.
Speaker 1 (19:17):
She looks fantastic. That surgery though, sounds like a beast line.
Speaker 3 (19:23):
Four. Hi Elliet in the morning, sir, h is this change?
Speaker 5 (19:30):
Uh?
Speaker 3 (19:30):
Yeah? I believe so?
Speaker 6 (19:32):
Okay, Yes. So when I was in seventh grade, I
got braces, actually eighth grade, and then from the next
seven years, my teeth got straighter, and it revealed that
I had a severe gap between my teeth. So when
my teeth clinched, had that like a quarrance gap, and
my jaw also was out a little bit.
Speaker 1 (19:55):
So did you did you like when you when you
got your braces in seventh grade? How older kids when
they get braces. I feel like they're younger than that,
aren't they?
Speaker 3 (20:03):
Now? Is that normal?
Speaker 4 (20:04):
Like middle school is pretty mukay? Yeah.
Speaker 1 (20:06):
And then when you said that that that once, once
your teeth straightened out, where where are you?
Speaker 3 (20:11):
Where are you from?
Speaker 6 (20:12):
By the way, uh Pile Mountain, North.
Speaker 3 (20:15):
Carolina, North Carolina.
Speaker 1 (20:16):
So when your teeth were straightened out and you would
put your teeth together, you had an underbite.
Speaker 6 (20:22):
Yes, sir, And so my bottom jawl was out a
little bit.
Speaker 1 (20:26):
Well, I mean sounds like a little more than that.
What was the what was the what did they do
to fix it? You sound good now?
Speaker 3 (20:35):
Sure?
Speaker 6 (20:36):
Thanks. The first they first started talking about breaking my
bottom jaw and moving it back and getting my teeth
in line so that you know, they clinched correctly. Right.
But but after after near the end of my my
teeth straightening up and my growth stopping, you have to
(20:56):
wait till your your finished growing. Basically around thee they
took my top jaw and cut it off basically and
moved it forward and tilted it up in the back,
and then they had all these plates screwed in place
to hold it all together.
Speaker 1 (21:16):
So did they say, by the way, that that explains
why it took this girl till she was twenty six,
Like you said, you got to be done growing.
Speaker 3 (21:23):
That's that's a good little factory to know.
Speaker 1 (21:25):
So are you telling me that they thought it would
be easier they were going to break one of your
jaws and realign it that it made more sense instead
of trying to move your bottom jaw back, it.
Speaker 3 (21:36):
Made more sense to protrude your front jaw.
Speaker 6 (21:41):
Yes, The reason was that my jaw wasn't out so
far that I looked odd, and they said if they
moved it back, then I wouldn't have any chin at all.
Speaker 3 (21:53):
Oh yeah, I've seen that on people before. I don't
know what you call that, bummer.
Speaker 6 (21:59):
It kind of helped me have like a bit more cheekbone.
Speaker 3 (22:02):
Sure, yeah, I get that.
Speaker 6 (22:05):
But it totally changed the way I looked. And people
did not recognize me. People I'd known for all through
high school. They were like, are you serious? If they
didn't come to my house to see me. In my house,
they would have known who was So I.
Speaker 1 (22:20):
Would walk in here, I would see Diana and be like,
who's this woman?
Speaker 3 (22:25):
Wow?
Speaker 1 (22:26):
No kidding, because you wouldn't think, you wouldn't think, Like, listen,
I understand, I'm looking at this. I'm looking at this
old gal who got her underbyte done. And yeah, I
don't know that I would recognize her, but if I
was around her every day, I think I would recognize her.
Like I'm just looking at the before and after photo
and that's all I know. But like anything else, you
(22:46):
get used to sing it every day.
Speaker 6 (22:49):
Yes, and the recovery time was only about six months
compared to hers.
Speaker 3 (22:55):
Yeah, ye had eighteen.
Speaker 6 (22:56):
I have to wire my jaw shut.
Speaker 3 (22:59):
You happy with how it looks now?
Speaker 1 (23:03):
Uh?
Speaker 6 (23:03):
Yes? My teeth will clinched together. You know. When I
so when I smile, I showed teeth most of the time.
So when I was before the surgery, I would smile
and it looked like I also was smiling with my
mouth open a bit. But now my teeth are you know, Yeah.
Speaker 1 (23:21):
Now they look tight in the front. Yeah, good for you,
Good for you? All right, very good, very good. I
appreciate it that. Hey And was that just was that
just bad luck? Like genetics?
Speaker 6 (23:32):
Uh? Sure, I suppose it wasn't such a problem. When
my teeth before the braces my jaw, I guess just
naturally my keith started fitting together from the start, but
I had some really crooked teeth and teeth had place though,
when as they as it all improved over over the
first three or four years, it finally showed that I
(23:53):
had a you know, got big gap.
Speaker 1 (23:55):
Sure, all right, very good, very good. I appreciate it,
Thank you, my friend. Well smelling good.
Speaker 2 (24:00):
Instagram says that a lot of today's underbite can be
attributed to severe inbreeding hundreds of years ago in Europe
and royal families.
Speaker 3 (24:17):
Be positive unrelated to King Charles negative in the monarch.
Look at this jaw.
Speaker 4 (24:32):
Well, I have this, Joel, But at least I'm not poor.
I'm rich, bitch.
Speaker 2 (24:44):
I had never heard that as a reason, that it's
in breathing, that it can be tied to it.
Speaker 5 (24:50):
There's a fact that what I wish I had, i'd
stick with thumbsucking.
Speaker 10 (24:55):
Just me.
Speaker 3 (24:59):
Lie eight, Hey, what's up? Brosis? Hi elliot in the morning? Hello, Hello,
who's this?
Speaker 6 (25:10):
This is it?
Speaker 1 (25:10):
El Ed?
Speaker 10 (25:11):
How you doing?
Speaker 3 (25:11):
I'm doing great? Do you have an underbite?
Speaker 9 (25:14):
I did when I was little and a dentist, doctor
Donahu in Baltimore City, told me to take a tooth
popsickle stick and put it over my bottom teeth and
eventually my two front teeth came over my top teeth
and might save my mother a lot of money. And
he said, if if you don't use popsicle sticker in school,
use your thumb and eventually your teeth will be to
(25:37):
come to an overlap.
Speaker 10 (25:37):
And that's what happ when I was little.
Speaker 4 (25:39):
I'm sorry, what the helf were you doing.
Speaker 9 (25:44):
I was taking a popsicle stick and I was putting
it under my lipt, my bottom lip, and then I
would pressure it on my top teeth and the top
teeth would eventually come at and overlap over my bottom teeth.
Speaker 3 (25:57):
So you were almost using it like a crowbar.
Speaker 9 (26:01):
Exactly, but very very gently, very lightly, maybe about five
or six years old. Eventually my teeth went over and
I had the overbite, and just from the pops He said,
you're using the popsicle thick, use your thumb, just applied
pressure to your upper teeth and eventually they will overlap
over your mouth.
Speaker 3 (26:18):
How about it? And that worked?
Speaker 9 (26:20):
It worked, Yeah, it worked fantastic until I was playing
football in high school quarterback. I'm hitting the mouth and
knocking my teeth out. I come to my mother and said, hey, mom,
look at this.
Speaker 10 (26:34):
He goes, Oh my god.
Speaker 3 (26:36):
Hey, was there any you may or may not know
the answer to this. Was there any incest in breeding
back in the day.
Speaker 9 (26:44):
No, not in my family. Not in my family. We
were all We weren't in the country.
Speaker 10 (26:48):
We were city people.
Speaker 3 (26:49):
Oh there you go, all right, very not royals.
Speaker 9 (26:54):
Hey, if anybody has an underbite using popsicle stick, trust.
Speaker 3 (26:59):
You, that's pretty a thank you, sir, that's pretty good.
Though I'm trying not to smile. I got my teeth
knocked out by a chainsaw. Hi Elliott the morning, Hey,
real quick, what can I do for you?
Speaker 10 (27:15):
So? I had a really bad overbite back when I
was in school. So all the way from sixth grade
to my senior year, I had to have a herbs appliance,
which is pretty much like rubber like rubber bands, but
in metal form. And what it does is it cranks
your jaw forward. And it was a really painful experience.
Speaker 1 (27:34):
So it moves your jaw, your bottom jaw out, so
it almost like just cranks the angle of all the bones.
Speaker 3 (27:41):
And everything to go out.
Speaker 1 (27:44):
Yeah, hold on, hold on, Tyler found it.
Speaker 3 (27:47):
Tyler found it. Dear god, Oh my god, dude.
Speaker 4 (27:53):
Do you have an overbite or a torn acl.
Speaker 3 (27:57):
Did you put that on the big screen for Diane?
Speaker 4 (27:59):
Yes?
Speaker 3 (28:00):
Ude? How did you eat with that?
Speaker 10 (28:02):
So? You could only open your mouth so wide? Because
if you open it too wide, the two like bars
would come apart. And sometimes I would open my mouth
too far and then I would close again and I'd
like stab myself like.
Speaker 4 (28:17):
My mouth.
Speaker 10 (28:19):
It was really bad.
Speaker 4 (28:20):
And for how long?
Speaker 10 (28:23):
From my sixth grade year all the way up into
my senior year?
Speaker 3 (28:28):
Can I can I ask you?
Speaker 1 (28:31):
I was gonna ask, like you never you never French
kissed a girl until after your senior year.
Speaker 4 (28:37):
Yeah?
Speaker 10 (28:38):
Nah, I was a girl free up until my senior year.
Speaker 3 (28:40):
Girl free. No, I mean listen, I get it.
Speaker 1 (28:44):
How much sandwich and like hot dog bun would hang
off the side of that contraption?
Speaker 10 (28:51):
Oh no, it was bad. I also had a like
a metal spacer at the roof of my mouth, so
when I would eat, food would get stuck between the
roof of my mouth and the metal spacer. Out how
like blow out just to get the teeth stuff right?
I'm stuck from the roof of my mouth. It was terrible.
Speaker 3 (29:09):
Wow, dude, how are How are you now? How are
you now?
Speaker 10 (29:14):
Fine? I don't have any braces. I have straight teeth
and a normal bite, so I know I'm fine.
Speaker 3 (29:19):
Now, dude.
Speaker 1 (29:21):
I bet going through it it sucked right, like everything
from being embarrassed early well, I mean just the whole time,
but you might you got to feel like it was
worth every moment.
Speaker 10 (29:33):
Oh yeah, it was definitely worth. I mean I would
if I had to do it again, I would because
who doesn't like a good smile?
Speaker 1 (29:39):
Yeah? No, no, And I bet you're very I bet
you're very aware of other people's smiles.
Speaker 10 (29:45):
Oh yeah, I'm gonna sound like an ass when I.
Speaker 6 (29:47):
Say, is that?
Speaker 10 (29:48):
Have you ever heard of Cali from Love on the Spectrum?
Speaker 3 (29:52):
I mean I know who that is.
Speaker 10 (29:55):
Yeah, that's probably if you look at the the worst
case of overbite ever over under my under right. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (30:06):
But uh yeah, but not a contraption like you had
going on. All right, Very good, very good. I appreciate it,
Thank you, my friend, Thank you.
Speaker 4 (30:13):
Wow damn.
Speaker 2 (30:15):
And if I may just ask Kristen, because we covered
a lot which part specifically explains the Amish
Is there a breakdown underbyte, overbite? Nobody has perfectly aligned teeth.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
I'm sure you can find someone for perfect where the
alignment of teeth is perfect. Again, that's numbers right there
with five intercepts. But you just want to break down.
Speaker 3 (00:21):
Yeah, is there.
Speaker 1 (00:22):
Is there a breakdown of what percentage of people have
an underbite? What percentage of people have an overbite, and
what percentage of people have a perfectly aligned mouth.
Speaker 2 (00:33):
So the problem with percentages when it comes to overbite
and underbite is that it gives you the extension beyond
your teeth and how far it is.
Speaker 3 (00:43):
Oh wait, so what does that say?
Speaker 2 (00:45):
If your upper teeth extend beyond your lower teeth by
more than twenty percent, you have an overbite?
Speaker 3 (00:51):
Oh wait? So do I not have an overbite? Because mine?
Speaker 1 (00:56):
Mine are my front teeth come over my top teeth,
come over my bottom teeth.
Speaker 3 (01:02):
But there's barely there's barely. If I used a measuring tape,
it's maybe two hairs.
Speaker 2 (01:08):
Maybe you don't have a deep bite, which would be
where you have it to the extreme.
Speaker 3 (01:14):
What is that called? I believe those people sound like
Diane was talking.
Speaker 4 (01:18):
Good. Now, that's an overbite greater than fifty percent.
Speaker 2 (01:23):
I don't even know what that would look like, but
more than se i'd be funny, more than seventy percent
of people have an overbite.
Speaker 3 (01:29):
Okay, that would to me that sounds normal, but.
Speaker 5 (01:31):
They said yeah, but even they said a slight one
is considered normal.
Speaker 3 (01:35):
Yes, yeah, yeah, I have a very slight one.
Speaker 4 (01:37):
Yes.
Speaker 2 (01:38):
The majority of those seventy percent, according to the academy
that cited that number, says it's a considerably small.
Speaker 4 (01:44):
Overbe Yeah, exactly right.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
And knowing that I was going to get into this,
I've been looking at people's teeth all day and like
people on television, people in the office, just everywhere. So
many people have an overbite. But it's not dramatic. You
wouldn't look at them and go like that person's jaws jacked.
Now talk to me about an underbite. Underbite is where
(02:07):
your bottom teeth are out further than your top teeth,
where your bottom jaw is almost like a cash register,
right where you.
Speaker 4 (02:16):
Look like a bulldog.
Speaker 1 (02:18):
Very good, Diane, Very good. So Nicholas Valentine has an underbite, yes,
Dustin's dog. What is that? That's more rare? So that
would be thirty percent.
Speaker 2 (02:33):
Now they say one in twenty, So more people have
perfect alignment than you think.
Speaker 3 (02:37):
Really, but what about underbyte? What about underbyte one in twenty?
But underbyte isn't perfect alignment?
Speaker 2 (02:45):
No, I know, but they're saying it's about five percent
of the population. The other one was seventy some percent, right,
and you've got a quarter left there that are good
to go?
Speaker 1 (02:55):
Oh wow, So what is my percentage? I'm sorry, what's
my percentage of people who have an unite? What about?
Speaker 3 (03:03):
What do they call an extreme underbite? I know what?
They call it? Unfortunate?
Speaker 4 (03:11):
Do they also say deep.
Speaker 3 (03:15):
Cold too? That's a urinal joke, Diane.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
Anyway, it is a form of dental misalignment, yes, with
a great protrusion.
Speaker 4 (03:29):
Severe.
Speaker 2 (03:32):
It is described on a case by case basis by
the degree of the malocclusion.
Speaker 3 (03:39):
Christian, will you do me a favor?
Speaker 1 (03:41):
Will you find me somebody who has a significant underbite?
Speaker 3 (03:46):
Please? Like enough where it bothers.
Speaker 4 (03:49):
Them, like enough, Relia can hear it?
Speaker 1 (03:54):
Yesh's not moving your jaw?
Speaker 2 (04:00):
Yes, No, you're that's not natural. Talk like you would
normally and protrude.
Speaker 3 (04:07):
Christine L.
Speaker 1 (04:13):
Craft, what I don't know how to talk?
Speaker 3 (04:17):
It's like this, It's like that.
Speaker 4 (04:19):
I am pushing it out.
Speaker 3 (04:20):
You push it out, you push it out.
Speaker 1 (04:24):
I am no, I got it Kristin eight six six too,
Elliott aix.
Speaker 3 (04:31):
Six two three five. You know what it is?
Speaker 1 (04:34):
First of all, you spit like crazy if you have
an underbike, have you controlled that to spit? The bottom
of my nose is soaking wet eight six six.
Speaker 4 (04:44):
Two three five five eight. Your nose is like a dog.
Speaker 3 (04:52):
You got an underbite? I need you please.
Speaker 4 (05:00):
Oh, some doctor should just call it bad bite.
Speaker 6 (05:02):
No, du.
Speaker 4 (05:07):
That doesn't really soften the blow in the office.
Speaker 3 (05:09):
No, the co workers, Oh, you're coach Elliot.
Speaker 4 (05:16):
Under bye Elliot. I feel like the front desk could
have diagnosed that. But thanks doc.
Speaker 1 (05:24):
Yeah, Christian, will you see if you can find me
somebody who has a uh like a pretty good underbite
where it's it's out there, it's out there mine four
keep them coming eight six eight eight two cheeks.
Speaker 3 (05:38):
Two three five five four six eight.
Speaker 4 (05:42):
Who knows what you'll get, because there's some quite a few.
Speaker 3 (05:44):
Reasons oh as to why you would have Yeah.
Speaker 4 (05:49):
We keep mentioning the jaw.
Speaker 1 (05:50):
It's not just the jaw, but it's not like thumbsucking
or something like that.
Speaker 3 (05:56):
That's buck teeth.
Speaker 4 (05:57):
But but well crooked teeth could cause.
Speaker 1 (06:02):
Oh really, oh, just because like physically you can't close
because your teeth are exploded.
Speaker 2 (06:08):
Or what is it called when you have like too
many teeth in your mouth? It's it's crowded. But what's
the action?
Speaker 7 (06:13):
No?
Speaker 3 (06:14):
No, no, no, no what shark mouth? The no?
Speaker 1 (06:17):
No, not shark teeth. No, there there is there is
that that does have a name. It's got a weird
name too. Isn't it after isn't it after an animal?
You got like hyena teeth or something like that. I
don't think it's shark mouth.
Speaker 4 (06:32):
No, no, but because they have all the extra rows
of teeth.
Speaker 1 (06:35):
No, but these aren't road I like when you get
that tooth that's growing out of the hard palate.
Speaker 4 (06:40):
What's what's that called?
Speaker 1 (06:42):
I know what it's called smoking during pregnancy.
Speaker 2 (06:51):
I just see crowding here. But to them, I am
being told her missing one other type of fight. I
only drink beer.
Speaker 1 (07:03):
Yeah, you could take an extra long bite because you
two with these teeth and the ones inside your mouth.
Speaker 8 (07:14):
Hummm stuff, Oh goodness, where my god?
Speaker 2 (07:29):
So you might get that fourth type of what is
that having covered one? Which one that wait over under
healthy healthy.
Speaker 3 (07:39):
Healthy, right over under healthy.
Speaker 2 (07:41):
But somebody perhaps suffering from it, or that disagreed with
the percentages, says, there is another slice of the pie.
Speaker 3 (07:49):
Gotcha for for over and or under?
Speaker 2 (07:52):
No for another a different type of bite, different type
of bite, open bite, Like.
Speaker 4 (07:59):
They can't physically close their mouth. I've never heard. I
thought you were going to go like a kimber.
Speaker 1 (08:06):
No, isn't that cold? Isn't that called cross cross stitch? No,
that's what Donna did?
Speaker 6 (08:10):
What?
Speaker 1 (08:11):
No, that's got a name. Where like this sight hold
on one second, line six.
Speaker 2 (08:15):
Hold on, line up, and it's it's off to the side,
frambervel catch her last night?
Speaker 1 (08:22):
No, but like you're right the on on the top
deck the side. The teeth on the right are really
long and the teeth on the left are really short.
Speaker 3 (08:31):
It's like a puzzle.
Speaker 1 (08:32):
But it's like you can't close your mouth because over
here you're breaking you're breaking everything, and over here you
could shove a hot dog in I can't.
Speaker 3 (08:40):
It's is it called crossbite cross something? Yeah? There it is.
Speaker 4 (08:44):
Oh, never mind.
Speaker 2 (08:45):
Oh your jaws are good, but your teeth don't touch.
Speaker 4 (08:56):
Like here. It is that's a there is.
Speaker 1 (09:00):
There it is in action, not you know what. That's
not as bad as I thought it was gonna be.
I imagine you get a lot of dry gums on that.
Let me ask you something.
Speaker 4 (09:11):
You're gonna notice if people's teeth don't touch.
Speaker 3 (09:13):
Oh, I hope so. Hi, Elliot in the morning. Yeah, Hi,

Speaker 3 (09:56):
Have you I have useful information. I have useful information.
I also had a scampy shrimp.
Speaker 4 (10:07):
Who's this going to be for though?
Speaker 1 (10:09):
Under bites under bites Line four? Hi, Ellie in the morning,
I need under bites. Hello, Hello, Hello, I got you Hello.
Speaker 3 (10:25):
Yo yo underbite? Hello? I have you who are you
talking to? You're repeating me to somebody? Hello, Yes it.
Speaker 5 (10:42):
Is it is you. Woman just said, are you sure
that's you? Yes, it's you, it's you.
Speaker 9 (10:48):
Yes.
Speaker 4 (10:48):
Oh my god, Jesus sorry.
Speaker 1 (10:50):
I know.
Speaker 3 (10:54):
Oh wait wait a severe underbite.
Speaker 7 (10:57):
Uh yeah, like my bottom teeth for trude in front
of my top teeth I've had. I had braces from
second grade until ten trades are corrected, so now they
almost line up, but it still looks light underbite.
Speaker 1 (11:11):
You had braces from second grade until tenth grade?
Speaker 3 (11:16):
Yeah, Oh my god, dude, that is that's the recondu.
That is. That's a long I've got. I've never heard of.
I've never heard of that.
Speaker 7 (11:25):
Every every single tooth was really crooked. I had like
a really rare like jaw setup. So they had to
start with like a couple braces and then gradually ad
them until I had a full mouth.
Speaker 10 (11:37):
In ten trades.
Speaker 3 (11:39):
Hey, So let me ask you this.
Speaker 1 (11:41):
Did you ever, in the course of it with your parents,
did you ever have a discussion about getting your underbyte
operated on?
Speaker 3 (11:50):
Uh?
Speaker 7 (11:51):
Yeah, But basically they said the operation would have been
like very expensive and like just as successful as the braces,
and because I was still able to like chew food,
and I didn't really it wasn't really noticeable unless I
showed my teeth, So it was just easier to kind
of like face it gradually rather than do a pretty
(12:13):
big surgery.
Speaker 1 (12:15):
Dude, I was reading about this woman, twenty six year
old woman. She has a pretty severe, very severe underbite,
and she had the surgery done.
Speaker 3 (12:29):
Holy f bro, you didn't mess her up. She looks great.
I'm not gonna lie. She looks great.
Speaker 1 (12:37):
I also have the well, Elliott, you sound awesome, like
you don't sound like you're jacked up.
Speaker 4 (12:43):
You're hearing.
Speaker 7 (12:44):
Yeah, you sent me to limbusit last summer. Actually, I
wanted to say thanks again for that.
Speaker 3 (12:48):
Oh, you're very welcome. You're very welcome. The Yeah.
Speaker 5 (12:51):
So does she have to pay out a pocket for it?
Because it's, like he said, maybe they would consider that
to be well, if it's not like harming your day
to day life, then maybe it's considered to be cosmetic.
Speaker 3 (13:03):
You know what, I don't. I don't know the answer
to that.
Speaker 1 (13:05):
I just know that she had double jaw surgery to
correct her huge underbite, and it shared photos of her
journey along with her finished winning smile.
Speaker 3 (13:14):
Louisa McDermott is her name.
Speaker 1 (13:16):
She was nine years old when she developed a three
centimeter underbite.
Speaker 3 (13:20):
Do you remember what yours was?
Speaker 7 (13:24):
I don't think it was three centimeters. That sounds like
a lot. Maybe maybe one or two.
Speaker 1 (13:32):
Okay, centimeters are small, so two to three, I mean
that's I mean, you're pretty close.
Speaker 10 (13:41):
Fair enough?
Speaker 3 (13:42):
Yeah, all right, very good, very good, thank you.
Speaker 1 (13:45):
But when you look at pictures like that's her now, Okay,
that's her now?
Speaker 3 (13:48):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (13:49):
No, if you saw that, that's actually eleven weeks after
she got the surgery done.
Speaker 3 (13:54):
Do you have there? Could you find the before picture
of this.
Speaker 4 (13:56):
Young lady if I click through?
Speaker 3 (13:59):
Yeah, yeah, because she's got pictures of everything.
Speaker 5 (14:02):
Oh wow, that was that before and that's with brace's Yeah,
because you said she found out that this when she
was really young, she was nine.
Speaker 4 (14:12):
I don't think I've ever seen it that bad before.
Speaker 1 (14:17):
I'll tell you what if anything ever comes out of
her nose and goes right into her mouth. Score anyway,
that was needless to say she was self conscious.
Speaker 4 (14:30):
How old is she.
Speaker 3 (14:32):
In that picture?
Speaker 4 (14:33):
Is this right before the surgery?
Speaker 3 (14:35):
Yes? Yeah, so early twenties?
Speaker 4 (14:40):
Damn? Or are you feel so bad for her?
Speaker 3 (14:44):
It started to affect her confidence.
Speaker 1 (14:45):
When she was a teenager, people would say, your jaw
is massive.
Speaker 2 (14:51):
Thanks, so you didn't attribute those self as the issues
to her, she speaks to them.
Speaker 1 (14:56):
Yes, Kristen, She said, my job made me really unhappy
and I hated having photos. The comments didn't bother me
as much as they should because I always knew that
I'd be getting the surgery one day, so.
Speaker 3 (15:13):
She was she knew one day, that's years down the road.
Speaker 1 (15:16):
You got to deal with that, but you know there's
something you can do about it. She had to go
to the hospital every six weeks to see if her
teeth were ready for the surgery. She also was afraid
to go away to go to school because she was
(15:37):
afraid that either a she wouldn't be able to make
it in for an appointment, or they would say yes,
now's the time, and she'd be like, I have to
drop out of school. Oh that stacks.
Speaker 4 (15:46):
This completely set her life back in more ways than one.
Speaker 1 (15:50):
It took eight years while she was wearing braces before
she got cleared for her double jaw surgery.
Speaker 2 (15:56):
Aally, that's the caller second to tenth grade. Yeah, and
what do they do during the surgery?
Speaker 3 (16:04):
By the way, they said.
Speaker 1 (16:06):
When she got to the hospital for the surgery, they
were trying to calm her down.
Speaker 3 (16:10):
She was running up and down the hallways.
Speaker 1 (16:12):
Skipping with joy because so was excited. Yes, the full
recovery time is just over eighteen months. You're on liquid
diet for two weeks. You have to eat through a straw,
and then she could eat mashed potatoes. After the surgery
was so uncomfortable. I couldn't swallow and I couldn't feel
(16:33):
my teeth. I needed twenty four to seven care. I
had to be fed, and I couldn't go to the toilet.
Why wouldn't you be able to go to the toilet
because your jaws jacked up?
Speaker 4 (16:44):
Is she on a ton of painkillers?
Speaker 1 (16:46):
Or is it like she's not eating anything therefore there's
nothing go toilet?
Speaker 6 (16:52):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (16:52):
Is she using toilet like you do sometimes? What do
you mean when you say, oh, I have to go bathroom?
Speaker 3 (17:00):
Okay?
Speaker 1 (17:00):
Oh no, no, But I meant like she doesn't have
to she doesn't have to poop.
Speaker 2 (17:03):
Right, But we initially, and that's what I think Diane
thought from the painkillers that she couldn't physically go into
the bathroom.
Speaker 3 (17:09):
Oh she can't get up?
Speaker 1 (17:11):
Well no, I mean the old pictures it looked like
she trip over that jaw, but not the new ones.
Speaker 3 (17:16):
Yeah, but she was probably quite swollen, actually so much so.
Speaker 1 (17:19):
My eyes were swollen shut. I couldn't see out out
of my eyes. My cheek, neck, lips, and chin were
swollen and bruised. I used to get nosebleeds all the time.
I know where that would drip.
Speaker 4 (17:32):
Here's a blindfold, go to the bathroom.
Speaker 1 (17:36):
What does she say, though, it's worth every ounce of pain.
I wasn't scared. I didn't care about the pain. Can
you see this picture?
Speaker 10 (17:46):
Yes?
Speaker 4 (17:46):
What do you notice in this picture she's drooling a little.
Speaker 3 (17:50):
No, she's got a lot of drool coming out of
that mouth. But in their photo it looks like she'll
never be ever talk. She looks great.
Speaker 2 (18:03):
She's claiming here with this one caption that people don't
recognize her.
Speaker 3 (18:06):
I believe it.
Speaker 4 (18:08):
I mean, same glasses. Okay, how long it was the recovery?
Speaker 3 (18:14):
Just over eighteen months?
Speaker 4 (18:16):
Wow?
Speaker 1 (18:17):
Man, I'm still struggling to eat and choose solids. I've
got a couple of needles in my chin and I
can't move my top lip. She will be getting her
braces removed, which she's due to get done in January.
She has such newfound confidence. Her friends do a double
(18:37):
take when they see her.
Speaker 4 (18:40):
I can't beat that.
Speaker 1 (18:41):
My colleagues didn't recognize me when they first saw me.
Speaker 3 (18:44):
Yeah they did.
Speaker 1 (18:46):
No, I mean, if Diane came in here tomorrow with
a different jaw, I would still know it's Diane, but
it would.
Speaker 3 (18:53):
I think they're just trying to make a point.
Speaker 4 (18:54):
Now, let's take it to the extreme.
Speaker 3 (18:56):
The no. No, that's what I'm saying. I think they
recognized her.
Speaker 2 (18:59):
ABC works in a larger office, so some of these
people she doesn't see.
Speaker 5 (19:04):
Every day, and if she's so self conscious, she's keeping
like out of the main part.
Speaker 2 (19:10):
Remember what people used to say about her, Oh she
had a massive jaw.
Speaker 3 (19:14):
That's true.
Speaker 1 (19:17):
She looks fantastic. That surgery though, sounds like a beast line.
Speaker 3 (19:23):
Four. Hi Elliet in the morning, sir, h is this change?
Speaker 5 (19:30):
Uh?
Speaker 3 (19:30):
Yeah? I believe so?
Speaker 6 (19:32):
Okay, Yes. So when I was in seventh grade, I
got braces, actually eighth grade, and then from the next
seven years, my teeth got straighter, and it revealed that
I had a severe gap between my teeth. So when
my teeth clinched, had that like a quarrance gap, and
my jaw also was out a little bit.
Speaker 1 (19:55):
So did you did you like when you when you
got your braces in seventh grade? How older kids when
they get braces. I feel like they're younger than that,
aren't they?
Speaker 3 (20:03):
Now? Is that normal?
Speaker 4 (20:04):
Like middle school is pretty mukay? Yeah.
Speaker 1 (20:06):
And then when you said that that that once, once
your teeth straightened out, where where are you?
Speaker 3 (20:11):
Where are you from?
Speaker 6 (20:12):
By the way, uh Pile Mountain, North.
Speaker 3 (20:15):
Carolina, North Carolina.
Speaker 1 (20:16):
So when your teeth were straightened out and you would
put your teeth together, you had an underbite.
Speaker 6 (20:22):
Yes, sir, And so my bottom jawl was out a
little bit.
Speaker 1 (20:26):
Well, I mean sounds like a little more than that.
What was the what was the what did they do
to fix it? You sound good now?
Speaker 3 (20:35):
Sure?
Speaker 6 (20:36):
Thanks. The first they first started talking about breaking my
bottom jaw and moving it back and getting my teeth
in line so that you know, they clinched correctly. Right.
But but after after near the end of my my
teeth straightening up and my growth stopping, you have to
(20:56):
wait till your your finished growing. Basically around thee they
took my top jaw and cut it off basically and
moved it forward and tilted it up in the back,
and then they had all these plates screwed in place
to hold it all together.
Speaker 1 (21:16):
So did they say, by the way, that that explains
why it took this girl till she was twenty six,
Like you said, you got to be done growing.
Speaker 3 (21:23):
That's that's a good little factory to know.
Speaker 1 (21:25):
So are you telling me that they thought it would
be easier they were going to break one of your
jaws and realign it that it made more sense instead
of trying to move your bottom jaw back, it.
Speaker 3 (21:36):
Made more sense to protrude your front jaw.
Speaker 6 (21:41):
Yes, The reason was that my jaw wasn't out so
far that I looked odd, and they said if they
moved it back, then I wouldn't have any chin at all.
Speaker 3 (21:53):
Oh yeah, I've seen that on people before. I don't
know what you call that, bummer.
Speaker 6 (21:59):
It kind of helped me have like a bit more cheekbone.
Speaker 3 (22:02):
Sure, yeah, I get that.
Speaker 6 (22:05):
But it totally changed the way I looked. And people
did not recognize me. People I'd known for all through
high school. They were like, are you serious? If they
didn't come to my house to see me. In my house,
they would have known who was So I.
Speaker 1 (22:20):
Would walk in here, I would see Diana and be like,
who's this woman?
Speaker 3 (22:25):
Wow?
Speaker 1 (22:26):
No kidding, because you wouldn't think, you wouldn't think, Like, listen,
I understand, I'm looking at this. I'm looking at this
old gal who got her underbyte done. And yeah, I
don't know that I would recognize her, but if I
was around her every day, I think I would recognize her.
Like I'm just looking at the before and after photo
and that's all I know. But like anything else, you
(22:46):
get used to sing it every day.
Speaker 6 (22:49):
Yes, and the recovery time was only about six months
compared to hers.
Speaker 3 (22:55):
Yeah, ye had eighteen.
Speaker 6 (22:56):
I have to wire my jaw shut.
Speaker 3 (22:59):
You happy with how it looks now?
Speaker 1 (23:03):
Uh?
Speaker 6 (23:03):
Yes? My teeth will clinched together. You know. When I
so when I smile, I showed teeth most of the time.
So when I was before the surgery, I would smile
and it looked like I also was smiling with my
mouth open a bit. But now my teeth are you know, Yeah.
Speaker 1 (23:21):
Now they look tight in the front. Yeah, good for you,
Good for you? All right, very good, very good. I
appreciate it that. Hey And was that just was that
just bad luck? Like genetics?
Speaker 6 (23:32):
Uh? Sure, I suppose it wasn't such a problem. When
my teeth before the braces my jaw, I guess just
naturally my keith started fitting together from the start, but
I had some really crooked teeth and teeth had place though,
when as they as it all improved over over the
first three or four years, it finally showed that I
(23:53):
had a you know, got big gap.
Speaker 1 (23:55):
Sure, all right, very good, very good. I appreciate it,
Thank you, my friend. Well smelling good.
Speaker 2 (24:00):
Instagram says that a lot of today's underbite can be
attributed to severe inbreeding hundreds of years ago in Europe
and royal families.
Speaker 3 (24:17):
Be positive unrelated to King Charles negative in the monarch.
Look at this jaw.
Speaker 4 (24:32):
Well, I have this, Joel, But at least I'm not poor.
I'm rich, bitch.
Speaker 2 (24:44):
I had never heard that as a reason, that it's
in breathing, that it can be tied to it.
Speaker 5 (24:50):
There's a fact that what I wish I had, i'd
stick with thumbsucking.
Speaker 10 (24:55):
Just me.
Speaker 3 (24:59):
Lie eight, Hey, what's up? Brosis? Hi elliot in the morning? Hello, Hello,
who's this?
Speaker 6 (25:10):
This is it?
Speaker 1 (25:10):
El Ed?
Speaker 10 (25:11):
How you doing?
Speaker 3 (25:11):
I'm doing great? Do you have an underbite?
Speaker 9 (25:14):
I did when I was little and a dentist, doctor
Donahu in Baltimore City, told me to take a tooth
popsickle stick and put it over my bottom teeth and
eventually my two front teeth came over my top teeth
and might save my mother a lot of money. And
he said, if if you don't use popsicle sticker in school,
use your thumb and eventually your teeth will be to
(25:37):
come to an overlap.
Speaker 10 (25:37):
And that's what happ when I was little.
Speaker 4 (25:39):
I'm sorry, what the helf were you doing.
Speaker 9 (25:44):
I was taking a popsicle stick and I was putting
it under my lipt, my bottom lip, and then I
would pressure it on my top teeth and the top
teeth would eventually come at and overlap over my bottom teeth.
Speaker 3 (25:57):
So you were almost using it like a crowbar.
Speaker 9 (26:01):
Exactly, but very very gently, very lightly, maybe about five
or six years old. Eventually my teeth went over and
I had the overbite, and just from the pops He said,
you're using the popsicle thick, use your thumb, just applied
pressure to your upper teeth and eventually they will overlap
over your mouth.
Speaker 3 (26:18):
How about it? And that worked?
Speaker 9 (26:20):
It worked, Yeah, it worked fantastic until I was playing
football in high school quarterback. I'm hitting the mouth and
knocking my teeth out. I come to my mother and said, hey, mom,
look at this.
Speaker 10 (26:34):
He goes, Oh my god.
Speaker 3 (26:36):
Hey, was there any you may or may not know
the answer to this. Was there any incest in breeding
back in the day.
Speaker 9 (26:44):
No, not in my family. Not in my family. We
were all We weren't in the country.
Speaker 10 (26:48):
We were city people.
Speaker 3 (26:49):
Oh there you go, all right, very not royals.
Speaker 9 (26:54):
Hey, if anybody has an underbite using popsicle stick, trust.
Speaker 3 (26:59):
You, that's pretty a thank you, sir, that's pretty good.
Though I'm trying not to smile. I got my teeth
knocked out by a chainsaw. Hi Elliott the morning, Hey,
real quick, what can I do for you?
Speaker 10 (27:15):
So? I had a really bad overbite back when I
was in school. So all the way from sixth grade
to my senior year, I had to have a herbs appliance,
which is pretty much like rubber like rubber bands, but
in metal form. And what it does is it cranks
your jaw forward. And it was a really painful experience.
Speaker 1 (27:34):
So it moves your jaw, your bottom jaw out, so
it almost like just cranks the angle of all the bones.
Speaker 3 (27:41):
And everything to go out.
Speaker 1 (27:44):
Yeah, hold on, hold on, Tyler found it.
Speaker 3 (27:47):
Tyler found it. Dear god, Oh my god, dude.
Speaker 4 (27:53):
Do you have an overbite or a torn acl.
Speaker 3 (27:57):
Did you put that on the big screen for Diane?
Speaker 4 (27:59):
Yes?
Speaker 3 (28:00):
Ude? How did you eat with that?
Speaker 10 (28:02):
So? You could only open your mouth so wide? Because
if you open it too wide, the two like bars
would come apart. And sometimes I would open my mouth
too far and then I would close again and I'd
like stab myself like.
Speaker 4 (28:17):
My mouth.
Speaker 10 (28:19):
It was really bad.
Speaker 4 (28:20):
And for how long?
Speaker 10 (28:23):
From my sixth grade year all the way up into
my senior year?
Speaker 3 (28:28):
Can I can I ask you?
Speaker 1 (28:31):
I was gonna ask, like you never you never French
kissed a girl until after your senior year.
Speaker 4 (28:37):
Yeah?
Speaker 10 (28:38):
Nah, I was a girl free up until my senior year.
Speaker 3 (28:40):
Girl free. No, I mean listen, I get it.
Speaker 1 (28:44):
How much sandwich and like hot dog bun would hang
off the side of that contraption?
Speaker 10 (28:51):
Oh no, it was bad. I also had a like
a metal spacer at the roof of my mouth, so
when I would eat, food would get stuck between the
roof of my mouth and the metal spacer. Out how
like blow out just to get the teeth stuff right?
I'm stuck from the roof of my mouth. It was terrible.
Speaker 3 (29:09):
Wow, dude, how are How are you now? How are
you now?
Speaker 10 (29:14):
Fine? I don't have any braces. I have straight teeth
and a normal bite, so I know I'm fine.
Speaker 3 (29:19):
Now, dude.
Speaker 1 (29:21):
I bet going through it it sucked right, like everything
from being embarrassed early well, I mean just the whole time,
but you might you got to feel like it was
worth every moment.
Speaker 10 (29:33):
Oh yeah, it was definitely worth. I mean I would
if I had to do it again, I would because
who doesn't like a good smile?
Speaker 1 (29:39):
Yeah? No, no, And I bet you're very I bet
you're very aware of other people's smiles.
Speaker 10 (29:45):
Oh yeah, I'm gonna sound like an ass when I.
Speaker 6 (29:47):
Say, is that?
Speaker 10 (29:48):
Have you ever heard of Cali from Love on the Spectrum?
Speaker 3 (29:52):
I mean I know who that is.
Speaker 10 (29:55):
Yeah, that's probably if you look at the the worst
case of overbite ever over under my under right. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (30:06):
But uh yeah, but not a contraption like you had
going on. All right, Very good, very good. I appreciate it,
Thank you, my friend, Thank you.
