Everyone who's replied to you so far are wrong and speculating. The real issue is actually lack of nutrition and exercise for the mouth. We're not growing our jaws out quite right while our teeth are coming in.

I'll admit I don't have a citation. I just remember it from a video about how this African dude had magnificent teeth because of the environment he grew up in.
