Il est important de souligner que le prognathisme n’a pas la même signification pour les anthropologistes et pour les orthodontistes.

Anomalía de la conformación bucal, debido a la cual, en unos casos, los dientes no pueden tomar contacto con el rodete dentario, porque la mandíbula hace saliencia con respecto al maxilar; se le llama dolicognatismo (prognatismo, boquino o "boca de chancho", como se le dice vulgarmente). En otros casos, el fenómeno es inverso, ya que los dientes vienen a tocar en pleno rodete y no en su borde exterior y aún en el paladar, como consecuencia de ser más corta la mandíbula.
