3. Malocclusion, Disuse Theory and the Begg Hypothesis
The essence of Weston Price findings is this: The incidence of malocclusion
amongst aboriginal peoples increased after contact with commercial societies and
adoption of a contemporary diet.
He found that in precontact aboriginal societies that virtually all individuals show a
nearly ideal occlusion. Price attributed malocclusion to a change in diet.

stress with modern processed foods; results in less jaw growth and more
malocclusion.
