Aligned teeth are important for your dental health.  Malocclusion is a dental condition where the upper and lower teeth are not properly aligned, or have an irregular contact.  Malocclusion can include overbites, underbites, crossbites, and crowding.  

Malocclusion can be caused by a number of factors, including, finger/thumb sucking, use of a pacifier, loss of teeth, mouth breathing, incorrect swallow, incorrect placement of tongue at rest when not eating, drinking or speaking.  While most malocclusion is mild and does not require treatment, it can lead to serious oral health issues if left untreated.  

Some traits of malocclusion might hamper efficient oral hygiene, for example, crowding is highly correlated to increased plaque formation and gingival inflammation and caries may be associated with spacing,  crowding, and increased or reduced overbite.  Also, caries and early tooth loss may in turn lead to occlusal irregularities and malocclusion.
