What Is A Midline Shift?

A midline shift is a condition in which the center of your upper teeth does not align with the center of your lower teeth. Midline shifts can have an impact on the overall appearance of an individual, making it appear unbalanced or off-center.

Causes Of A Midline Shift

  • Missing teeth leading to misalignment
  • Lifestyle habits like thumb-sucking or tongue-thrusting
  • Gum disease leading to teeth shifting
  • A facial or dental injury pushing teeth out of alignment
