Repairing a slight leak in threaded copper pipe to brass shower mixing valve.?

I just installed a shower mixing valve and all of the soldered connections were fine. However, there is a slight leak at each of the copper to brass threaded connections into the mixing valve. I was only able to tightend the copper fitting a certain amount in order to achieve the proper alignment of the copper to copper piping. Is there a fix without removing the entire assembly and starting from scratch?
