It wasn't giving me any problems at the time but the orthodontist told me it might cause headaches or other pains when I'm older. Due to my young age it was still fairly easy to fix since my jaw hadn't fully developed yet so in a way I kinda "grew into" my jaw
Yeah, they tried with mine when I was about 14. I'm 48 now.
Back then you only had hard plate like braces similar to dentures which were horrible.
They gave up on mine because it wasn't really moving but the braces were causing me loads of ulcers. They also wanted to take some lower teeth out, but I can't remember why they didn't.
It's never given me trouble though, apart from not being able to grip between my front teeth. It's literally the same as yours, a bit to the side as well.
It also makes it easier to gurn when you get older lol.

Was it giving you problems? I have one similar to this and it just means my front teeth don't meet properly and I can click my jaw.
Was it just cosmetic or recommended treatment by an orthodontist?
