In general, biting too hard on the mouthpiece, which can be caused either by misapplied jaw pressure or by playing on stuffy or otherwise unresponsive reeds. But it can also be a result of lower front teeth that have uneven or jagged edges, which can dig into the lip even with minimal embouchure pressure.
You titled this thread "Overbite." Do you have one, or was that intended to mean "biting too hard?"
