Summary
COI synopsis: Comedians have made fortunes out of protruding teeth - for thousands of children, however, it’s an affliction that is far from funny. At King’s College Dental School in London scientists have been making the longest survey of children’s teeth ever attempted in research that might change traditional corrective treatments radically.
Researcher Comments
NB: The work has been going on for over 15 years and a huge library of X-rays, photographs, films and plaster casts has been built up.
