Question: Why are some people's teeth wonky?

Sam Geen answered on 24 Jun 2013:

As you grow, your skull grows and your teeth also develop – you grow milk teeth, then lose them and get adult teeth (then, when you’re about 25-30 or so, you grow “wisdom teeth”, which sometimes have to be taken out as they grow into your molars sometimes). Sometimes when your teeth grow they grow at the wrong angle, or you can push them out of place by chewing too much, or sucking your thumb, or badly-fitted dental braces, etc.
