Very few people grow into perfectly aligned smiles. As an adult, you may have noticed your teeth shifting with age. Poor alignment or irregular fit of the teeth is called malocclusion and it may range from slightly crooked teeth to more severe misalignment. In certain instances, malocclusion may interfere with your ability to eat or speak comfortably and may make cleaning and caring for your teeth more challenging. The most common type of malocclusion is overcrowding.
