What is the cause for my uneven teeth growth?

Q. Hi, my teeth are quite small for my age. i’m 16 and only noticed this 1 year ago after an orthodontist pointed it out to me. My molars are maybe 2-3mm out of my gums and my other teeth are less than an inch out of my gums. is this strange or common, furthermore, my to front teeth overlapped as i grew up. is this related?

A. Size of teeth and crowding/spacing are related.  The size of your teeth oftens relates to your general body size.
