Alveolar prognathism
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Alveolar prognathism is an anatomic characteristic in which the lower part of the face projects forward, and the lips stand out farther in front of the face than the nose does. The lack of alveolar prognathism is a distinctive identifying characteristic of Caucasians. The term is most often used in Physical Anthropology.
