A pacifier, particularly a poorly designed pacifier, can alter the shape of the palate (roof of the mouth) which in turn will affect how the teeth erupt into the mouth. Fortunately, if the teeth are crooked, this can be corrected during adolescence with orthodontic treatment.

Why do people get crooked teeth?

It's genetics. I got my crooked teeth both from my father and from having a pacifier for too long. A pacifier is like braces in a sense - if you have a pacifier for too long, it can put pressure on your teeth which would therefor move your teeth.

How do you make your wisdom teeth grow straight when there is no second molar?

Unfortunately, there is no way to "make" your wisdom teeth grow in straight. If your other teeth are straight, then they may grow in straight. If you have a tendency towards crooked teeth, they they may grow crooked too. The good news is that not everyone has to have them removed if they grow in crooked. If there is sufficient room and they will not cause problems with the other teeth, they may not have to be removed. With no 2nd molar, there might be enough room that they do not have to be removed. The best person to make this determination is your dentist.
