Because he died at 21. With perfect teeth.
My teeth emphatically didn’t look like that at 21. More like someone used a shotgun to implant them to my mouth. I could be from Britain for all I care.
ironic that that meme is 70s-80s dated. most brits get far better dental care than the average US citizen, where our health insurance stops before it covers our goddamned mouth bones.
Isn’t basically everyone getting better <insert anything a civilized nation offers> than the US? Except having a great military ofc.
Eh, I deal with a few British people on a daily basis. Still relevant.
Edit: typo
Because apparently some of us only eat peanut butter and never chew anything solid
yogurt is yummy 😋
Survivorship bias? Bodies that are in the right condition dry out and pull the teeth deeper set into jaw bones as part of decomposition, whereas otherwise the skeleton would not be intact?
Hear me out: inbreeding.
I don’t think inbreeding is going to solve this
Outbreeding? (Alien bussy)?
Now we might be getting somewhere

Inbreeding is what caused crooked teeth
joke?
Look at the inbred dogs and cats, not hard to understand
the original comment is a joke, you didn’t need to clarify
only one way to find out
My dentist said that it’s because we don’t chew much. We just eat a lot of soft stuff which somehow negativity affects teeth such that they don’t grow properly.
Could be, there’s a similar remedy to wisdom teeth growing sideways. Apparently the body needs some sort of a signal for direction, so if you chew on a stick (e.g. a pencil) for 10-15 minutes each day, they should reallign themselves.
You forgot the /s at the end of “fix your teeth by chewing on a pencil for 15 minutes a day”, right?

agriculture and its consequences (maybe)
Kinda? Humans consume a lot more sugar than they did 10,000 years ago, in addition to other foodstuff that are terrible for your teeth
The one I was thinking of is the (hypothesized) reduction in jaw size due to less need for powerful chewing, while teeth stayed the same size leading to many problems
Yeah. I remember a story about an anthropologist who went to a indigenous tribe, IIRC somewhere around the pacific, he took photos of everyone’s teeth. Everyone had straight teeth from the kids to the elderly. Then a generation later someone else did the same thing. Went to that tribe and took photos. Many kids had crooked teeth. The only thing that changed is that they adopted a Western diet.
Can’t remember the name of that anthropologist, though.
You get cavities from sugar not crooked teeth. It’s that our food has become softer over the last few thousand years. Our jaws don’t get enough exercise during their developmental years. So they don’t grow large enough for our teeth. It’s also why many people have impacting wisdom teeth.
