This is the most obvious symptom of jaw fracture and is of great significance in the diagnosis of jaw fracture. Transverse fracture of maxillary bone, the fracture segment is shifted downward, so that the maxillary posterior teeth and the mandibular posterior teeth are brought into early contact, and the anterior teeth are in an occlusal state.
