Why Are Your Teeth Crooked When Your Ancestors' Weren't?

Nine in ten people alive today have teeth that don't fit their own jaw. Your ancestors almost never did. Dig up a hunter-gatherer skull and the teeth inside are almost always straight, evenly spaced, with room for every molar — including the ones your dentist just cut out of you. In this video, you'll learn why your jaw stopped matching your teeth: the real chewing-effort research behind cooked and sliced food, the fossil evidence of forager-versus-farmer jawbones, the microscopic tooth-wear signature ancient humans left behind, and the almost unbelievable case of one family losing straight teeth in a single generation — no evolution, no new mutation, just a softer diet. It's not bad luck. It's history catching up with your mouth.
