Research has shown that if your teeth are crooked, have excessive spacing, or are not in proper alignment, as you age they will continue to shift as you age. The changes aren’t visible overnight, but time over time, they may lead to various dental challenges. That’s why it’s important to maintain regular dental check-ups!
