Jill Duggar proudly shared photos with her husband, Derick Dillard, on their 5th anniversary weekend but fans were more focused on the axed Counting On star’s teeth! Many fans made fun of Derick for having a smile that was still off-center and he finally clapped back on June 27.
Watch!
Jill, 28, posted the first pictures of Derick, 30, without braces on June 23. The couple was all smiles for their wedding anniversary weekend.
Derick’s front teeth were noticeably off-center, and fans immediately roasted the former Counting On star in the comments. One person wrote, “All that time in braces and they couldn't get his midline better than that?!”

Another follower commented, “I’m so confused why his teeth are moving sideways and are no longer in the midline!”
Derick responded, “The midline issues are from the surgery by accident.”
He continued, “Nothing we can do about it now.”
Derick got orthodontic surgery in 2015 for a palatal expansion in order for his teeth to appropriately shift once he got braces. He then wore braces for four years, but it seems his teeth didn’t properly shift in the process.
