Over a number of years of playing, the position of my trumpet on my mouth has drifted slightly, and my embrochure developed slightly (and noticeably) to the right. This happened naturally, and feels comfortable. My tone/playing seems to have been developing fine. I would like to know if this will have any negative long term effects, or simply hinders airflow, sound, etc. I am of course unable to solve this problem myself, as I simply cannot know what I would sound like if I had always played in the center of the mouth. If anyone has experienced this problem before, or has an insight, please post a reply, it would be greatly appreciated and would simply put my mind to rest

Do you have a private teacher?
If you playing is fine, then why are you worried?
not everyone has the same exact embrochure.

<Added>

My embrochure is slightly to the left. If that it where you play, that is where you play.
