The debate on the state of British teeth continues
British teeth are thought of as comedic by Americans and it is something that has even been mentioned in The Simpsons. The issue of British teeth vs American teeth has been heavily debated in the British papers in recent times, especially as some of our celebrities have been criticised by American reporters. Ricky Gervais was famously complimented by an American journalist for wearing what he thought were false bad teeth and the journalist was shocked to learn they were the stars own teeth. This sparked a debate in the British press on the state of British teeth and if we deserved to be mocked by the Americans.
The reality is that most people don’t have bad teeth. Although there are a lack of NHS dentists available in some areas, many people have started joining practice dental plans to make sure they can get an appointment at the dental surgery. This trend is likely to continue with more dentists signing up with dental plan providers. In the United Kingdom the main concern has always been with making sure teeth are healthy, rather than following the American route of whitening stained, bad teeth. There has been an increase in cosmetic dental surgery and an increase in the amount of braces and veneers.
Teeth whitening is the new craze from American dentistry to hit these shores even though a number of teeth whitening solution are only available by ordering them online. The rise in the popularity of teeth whitening in the UK could be because of the number of British celebrities that have had their teeth whitened. Simon Cowell recently insisted that all the X Factor finalists underwent some teeth whitening in a top cosmetic dental surgery. As well as this everyone from Kate Blanchett to Richard Hammond have invested in a spot of teeth whitening, so it is not surprising to see an increase among the public.
