Hi adelle,
Generally when the front teeth start to move forward or twist out of alignment it is due to periodontal disease which causes a deterioration in the bone resulting in bone loss around the teeth. It could also occur in people who are missing molars because this too causes deterioration in the supporting bone causing an unnatural shift in the bite.
It can be very difficult to chew food when you are missing several teeth. Perhaps his dentist can make a removable partial denture for him to replace those missing teeth?
