Instead of the teeth overlapping slightly in a normal way, the upper teeth can sit completely \u201cbuccal\u201d (toward the cheek) to the lowers. It is most commonly discussed in orthodontics and occlusion (how teeth fit together). Clinicians may also describe it as a \u201cposterior scissor bite\u201d because it often affects premolars and molars."}
