Tight Teeth

I have a gap between my two front teeth.  Years ago, I chipped one of them and had to see a specialist about getting it repaired.  The doctor suggested veneers to cover the tooth.  He also told me he could close the gap between my teeth as part of the procedure.  I told him he could narrow the gap.  I explained the gap was a part of me because I have had it since before I was school age.  Fast forward to today.  I was at the dentist getting my teeth cleaned.  The nurse was trying to floss in between a pair of my back teeth and she encountered a problem.   She commented that I had tight teeth.  Considering I have a gap between my two front teeth, for someone to say my teeth are tight seemed like a joke.
