I always figured film celebrities simply had their teeth bleached and straightened but apparently almost every famous person has porcelain veneers, hiding their natural not so pretty teeth underneath.
Same thing for most news anchors, politicians and musicians. It even goes way beyond that. Doctors, CEOs, bankers, lawyers. Anyone who's rich really. Any of these pretty smiles can easily cost $100k.
>$100k 1. they dont cost this much 2. you're a moron for just figuring this out, or 12.
Camden Gutierrez
Are you 15? You sound like a braindead zoomer.
Julian Fisher
i miss 70s and 80s movies where actors looked like real people. its so obvious in HD now watching those old movies where you can see actors with flawed teeth that werent so unnaturally white like they are today. that shit just looks weird almost like dentures or some shit
Brody Allen
give this man a cookie.
Aiden Green
taylor swift has obvious ones.
Lincoln Evans
How much do they cost and how long do they last?
Jonathan Murphy
Sure. Every dentist will tell you that. What? Did you think everyone had pearly whites? Shit user, even their skin is so smooth because it’s covered in layers and layers of makeup. Just grab some really HQ pic from a red carpet and zoom in. The bumps, small zits and shit are visible.
My dad has veneers because he would eat candy and fall asleep without brushing his teeth. Are you telling me that every Hollywood celebrity does the same?!?
As a former poorfag, Ive used an FSA to pay for veneers and lasik over the course of two years. It's not all that expensive. 4k for the lasik, and 5k for the teeth.
looked better before and wouldve improved his kinos tenfold

user you can replace the 6 most common teeth for less than 5k. Surely you could budget that over the course of a year or two.

Kevin Foster
he's right though. 99% of celebrities have fake teeth
Josiah Miller
My teeth were all tucked up. Crooked, yellow, etc. I spend $6000 on braces and $10k on veneers. I’m sure most movie stars can easily afford the same.
Christian Flores
I didn't go to the dentist for the longest time because there wasn't anything wrong but I make an effort to go now (the usual cleaning and what not) to keep it that way
Grayson Campbell
nips do the same I think
Kayden Baker
Check your work benefits. If you can get an FSA(Flex Spending Account), you can have money taken out, pre tax, to put towards medical expenses. It's what I did for my veneers and lasik when I was making less than 40k.
Logan White
damn imagine being American
both of mine cost €75 each
Lucas Cook
lol nah I dont have benefits, I'm not from America
Braces take time. Chris Rock talks about how no one told him his teeth were fucked up. Eventually, he had some money, and got them fixed. Except, they are still fucked up. He got them ground down, and veneers glued on, but he needed braces badly. Possibly even a palatial expansion. It isn't like he didn't have the time.
Anyway, his bite is still fucked up, and his speech reflects this.
Jacob Allen
baba booie's moustache always looked disgusting.
Jason Hernandez
lol it looks like she was legit missing some teeth on the bottom row
depends where you live, but generally a lot. Teeth are complex nerves.
William Fisher
even if you put caps and veneers on all teeth, unless you got the best dentist in the world, you wouldnt be spending 100k. thats fucking stupid you retard, even the dawson academy which completely restores all teeth as well as gives perfect occlusions, would only be around the price of a car, like 20k if anything. and what does the teeth shit matter to you? its not like hair transplants or lypo. get fucked faggot
>Morons. Hey buddy, these are not your average grand a tooth ones, these are mulit millionaire versions put in by doctors who charge millions, you go to a regular dentist, these people go to to the dentist of the celebs.
Just like there is plastic surgery, and plastic surgery for celebs, big difference in pay.
>I charge $1300 per tooth. >But when money bags mcrichfuck comes in, its a cool 10g a tooth and I tell them its the finest porcelain in the land made from the finest.
Hunter Edwards
teeth matter more than hair or fat you fucking idiot. Try functioning with a toothache.

It sounds trite, but I'd much rather have human flaws than doll-like perfection. It seems fucked that people pretty much give up a piece of their humanity when they get famous
teeth hurt dumbass. It's not a purely aesthetic choice
Daniel Bell
Mom has those just front upper teeth, if she didn't tell me, Id still believe it those are hers. And we aren't that rich, sure his dad was rich, but not actor level rich. (Actually we aren't cuz grandpa decides to have 10 bastards).

im saying why the fuck care about something that everyone gets done? lypo and hair transplants are for the rich, why obsess over celebs getting crowns like normal people? also fuck you you gay ass retard monkey
Jacob Gomez

Brody Edwards
1. Do you have to brush them? Floss?
2. What’s the maintenance like? Is it like Botox where you’re doomed to be JUST’d/bogged in old age?
3. Are these celebs actually paying or do their management companies subsidize them as an “investment”
Ryan Wright
Teeth are a status symbol in America. America is very classist. If they smell the poor they don't take you seriously.
Jaxon Murphy
that's a good idea. Lots of italians come to my slavland to do it for 1/3 of the price and basically the same equipment and service.
Isaiah Rivera

Grandfather died with all his teeth @ 90. Uncle is a dentist. Never will be needing veneers like a teethlet.
Wyatt Robinson
This, a little. I've got crooked teeth and one of the front is chipped. If I had them straightened... I can't even imagine getting them 100% perfect and the chip... I'm so use to it. Been there since I was a kid. Like, Jim Carry's chipped tooth it is not. But it is a little notch on the corner. If I had super-special movie-star money, I'd somehow keep the chip. I can't even imagine my face without it.
Justin Myers
that's everywhere. People don't like poors. Veneers won't rot, but you should brush if you don't want to smell like a whore's pap smear or get a gum infection.

I'm a dentist (DDS). Why are you even making that distinction? An orthodontist wouldn't be the one who did veneers. That would be done by a general dentist or a prosthodontist. An orthodontist holds the same degree anyway but has completed 2-3 year residency. Almost no orthodontists do operative/prosth procedures.
Anthony Barnes
You get used to it in like a week.

Good for you user. Expensive money hungry cunts. After my experience I'll probably never trust an ortho again, especially for children. Complete scam artists.

Nolan Robinson
Goddamn, nothing in this world is real is it??? I seriously underestimated how many celebrities have fake teeth. We live in a fake world I'll tell ya hwat. Fake teeth, fake hair, plastic surgery, colored contact lenses, make up, tattoos, lifts in shoes etc etc the list goes on forever.
Anyone here used Invisalign or anything similar?? An ortho quoted me $4k for Invisalign and said it would take 1-2 years for the full process and my teeth truly aren’t even that messed up I just have buck teeth and one crooked one on the bottom. Meanwhile smile direct quoted me ~$2k and said 6 months tops for wearing the liners then I just have to sleep with a retainer. Is there something I’m not understanding? Does smile direct not work or something? I know the orthodontist is obviously going to upcharge but twice as much? And why would it take so much longer?
>Anyone who's rich really I am mildly poor, go to the dentist, and had my teeth straightened. How much does it cost to straighten teeth in other countries?

Zachary Sanchez
You're overreacting, op. They do not all have veneers.
Adrian Wilson
Yep.
Starter kit for an actress used to be a tit job, now it's veneers.
I asked my dentist about them, once, out of curiousity. He said he's made most of his profit from them. A lot of HELOC money went to veneers, that shit is expensive, and insurance doesn't pay for them.
You want to see hilariously awful, go find someone with budgets veneers from Costa Rica or Mexico. A woman at a place I worked got them done in Costa Rica, and they were crooked. She ran around doing the Japanese cover your mouth thing.
Jace Parker
this. braces and whitening are enough for many to achieve perfect or almost perfect teeth
John Hughes
How do people get such bad teeth in the first place?
I never had braces, drank soda, had a smoking phase, missed a few nights brushing, drink tons of tea (now), and my teeth are straight. Not bleach white but not too yellow either.
Andrew Hill
That picture of Katie Holmes.
Is she really toothless?
Lucas Ross
Implants would be the $100k range. Veneers are like $1000 for the resin ones.
The funny part with veneers is they don't last - the porcelain ones wear out after 10 years, and the cheaper ones 5 years, and since they grind your teeth down, you can't just remove them. It's a one-way thing.
Chase Phillips
He probably mixed up implants with veneers. Implants are fucking expensive. A full mouth of implants could get up in the 90-100k range, easy.
Jason Kelly
I wouldn't trust any of those mail-order aligner companies, for many reasons. You don't have a professional monitoring you for tracking issues. They don't do attachments, which some movements are scientifically impossible without (imagine trying to pluck a small hair on your chin without using the grip of your fingernail). Your treatment time will be shorter because they'll just half-ass it with movements possible through aligner tension alone while leaving out the hard parts like fixing an off-center midline, malocclusion, etc. You probably have much less sway with stuff like mid-course correction and refinement, unlike a contracted professional who signed a waiver to be medically responsible for you. If the mail-order company leaves you high and dry even though you're not adequately treated, you might not have any option but to go pay out of pocket for Invisalign to fix it anyway.
That's not to say you should necessarily put too much stock into the first orthodontist you went to, though. Some of them are old farts who've been doing braces for years, but are incredibly inexperienced with Invisalign. Align Technology outright said a few years ago that 7 day trays at .33 mm movement per tray is absolutely safe, and you can go even lower than that with the Propel perforation treatment. One guy I went to swore I wasn't even a candidate for Invisalign yet and that I had to do several months of braces first, which added a couple thousand dollars to treatment and necessitated an implant in the floor of my mouth. I went to someone more experienced with Invisalign and those first several months went absolutely fine with attachments and wearing them regularly, the trays even had bite ridges that were a non-invasive complete replacement for the implant that other quack wanted me to get.
Shop around, go with Invisalign Full to play it safe, and discuss a treatment plan instead of just jumping into it.
Brayden Thompson
Colored teeth aren't necessarily "bad". Teeth come in a wide range of colors, it's hereditary, and things like diet can effect it.
I worked at a company that was family owned, and they all had grey teeth. They were perfectly healthy teeth, they were just that color.
Hollywood has created the meme that teeth have to be bleached white to be "good".
>Align Technology outright said a few years ago that 7 day trays at .33 mm movement per tray is absolutely safe, and you can go even lower than that with the Propel perforation treatment. I forgot to elaborate on this train of thought but some stubborn orthodontics will stick hard to a 10–14 day tray schedule even though it's absolutely not neccessary anymore, especially for someone like me who wore my trays literally 23 hours a day. Your treatment time could easily become twice as long simply because your orthodontist is a fuddy-duddy. 2 years is excessive, unless they're being very liberal with accounting for tracking issues or patience noncompliance.
>straight white teeth For a second I was convinced the third word was going to be something else
Hudson Wright
The ortho will tell you that your dentist should deep clean every 2 years to make sure nothing nasty happens. You should be doing it every 1 year desu, the cavities and ugly yellow staining you can get from braces is no joke. If youre not staying on top of that shit it can turn into a huge expensive mess
Gabriel Nelson
My dentist once told me that the biggest risk with tooth realignment was trying to move the teeth too quickly. Aparently it can cause issues were the teeth move, but the tooth route doesn’t, causing permanent tooth damage. He said the best orthodontists take they’re time, and slowly work to move the teeth. If you were planning on using one of the systems, I would go with the one that takes longer.
Gabriel Sullivan
I lost several of my teeth because of soda drinking and not brushing them and I'm only 26. I wish I had at least gotten them filled, implants are expensive as Hell. I'm gong to have to get dentures because I'm poor and don't have 60k+ for implants.

Logan Collins
they dont stain and u dont get cavities as easy. also u can look stupid like u have big fake horse teeth tho.
Gabriel Wilson
This is what they do now. They implant studs into your jaw bone and then screw in new teeth. If you had old teeth prior, they would use an impression of your teeth as a starting point for the individual tooth molds, so everything aligns correctly in your mouth.
Sebastian Sanders
Dentist here. Do NOT do smile direct. As far as I know they don't even require radiographs before they start. That's insane if true. So much goes on underneath the surface. First, you may have caries (cavities) that need to be treated before you start. Second, you may have necrotic teeth, pathological resorption, impacted teeth, supernumerary teeth, etc. If you are going to fuck with your teeth, have a professional at lease see you in person. Invisalign is great.
Brayden Martin
You can get cavities with veneers?
Dylan Carter
HD means you can see all the men actors wearing make up
Nathaniel Young
Porcelain stains and the MARGINS (tooth/porcelain interface) stains as well, especially if poorly fit or poorly bonded. There is no dental restoration that is easier to maintain than natural tooth. Everything else is MORE work. keep that in mind.

Look at the OP pic veneers go over the front, the back of your tooth is still there and the possibility still exists
Samuel Phillips
Isn’t that what an HSA is? I though FSA doesn’t roll over but a hsa does
Grayson Parker
As I said before: Everything is harder to maintain than a natural tooth. An implant is subject to failure for many reason if you're not going to brush and floss then peri-implantitis will degrade the bone. Keep in mind that you lose all sense of dental proprioception when you lose your teeth. that means you can't very accuracy sense how hard you are biting since you have no periodontal ligament. Many people develop bruxism from this and grind down their expensive restorations.
Nolan Hughes

I'm going to visit a dentist soon to get a quote on how much it'll cost to whiten my teeth and bond a gap between my front two teeth. How much do you guys think that might cost?

you're eternal soul. people who have permanent cosmetic alterations always regret it, like tattoos. also ugliness is beauty - in your case refer to madonna
Greatly depends on where you live and where you go.
Oliver Jones
Is tooth bonding permanent? I've heard that they actually have to file off part of your tooth to put the material on there. I probably won't do it if that's the case. Ladies like me anyway, but I'd still like a bit more confidence.
Hunter Foster
>Get braces at a young age >Constantly on top of brushing and flossing, go to dentist every six months >Get braces pulled off, finally get that perfect smile >Head into dentist six months ago >"Hey, you do know that you're grinding your teeth and now most of the enamel's gone, right? Twenty years of battling my family's fucked up teeth situation and I fuck myself over by grinding too hard.
A no-prep bonded composite restoration is not a permanent alteration. The average lifespan of composite it 7-10 years but can be much better. In any case it can be removed or replaced if need be and in many cases can be closed without prepping the tooth (depends on the dimensions of your tooth and the size of the gap)

Adrian Scott
Thank you, doctor. Can you give me a quote real quick? Shot in the dark?
Since I am a dentist in NYC, I see plenty of cases of people trying to save a buck. Those dentists abroad have access to worse materials, labs, and are poorly trained. I fix root canal therapy filled with god knows what. Shit crowns with 2mm overhanging margins, etc. Maybe this is just knowing "too much" as a dentist, but I would only have a high-price specialist touch my teeth. Do not skimp on this one thing. There is a reason dentists all get gold when they get something.
Jayden Parker
yes they file away to make posts unless you go real pricey then they do each individual tooth itself

Michael Davis
>new York dentist >on 4channel no way you aren't a jew or Russian
Everything could be 800 bucks. Expect 600 for in office whitening. Or you can have trays made at the dentist and do it at home with a gel for less. The real question is how much of a diastema you have, and how it's going to be closed. We can't make your central incisors square by just bonding 3mm on each one and closing the gap. So best case is a small composite extension on each side to close the gap. Could do a minimal or no prep veneer. Worst case is 6 or 8 veneers
Joseph Ramirez
Wait so that shit just clips on over your real teeth? I always thought they got the real teeth pulled and replaced completely with fake teeth like my dad did with one tooth that chipped. How do you even eat with these on?

Don't bother to get the tooth whitening at the dentist it's outrageously expensive. Just buy the Opalescence gel and the tooth trays on amazon. a 6 month supply is like $50.
Bonding work on the teeth is actually ridiculously cheap. Maybe $200 if you went in the usa. (our dentists are more expensive). Bonding lasts 10 years or more and it's super easy to replace you just get more bonding.
It's the FAR superior method for front tooth cosmetic fixes. Because Porcelain Veneers involving grinding down your teeth to nubs. perfectly explained by
Joseph Davis
too bad hes still a jew rat through and through
Carson Miller
in most cases 1.5mm depth cuts are made on the facial and incisal surfaces. An impression is taken.Then a temporary acrylic is placed. Then the lab will make the porcelain, which is bonded to the tooth permanently. those are full coverage crown preps, not veneer preps

Leo Wright
Amalgams are built to last. If you don't have gold then I'd choose amalgam. If an amalgam restoration "fell out". It USUALLY indicates some larger underlying issue such as recurrent decay, or a cusp fracture. Less likely is a poorly placed amalgam that had no retention. So hard to tell what your situation without an exam. That being said if the dentin is exposed you would be more susceptible. Too many possibilities to explain without taking a look.
Cameron Morales
Damn, that's cheap. I'll look into it.
Hudson Rogers
I've heard of people a decade ago who went to Hungary because they needed half a mouth full of dental implants and they worked OK.
I would still be cautious with that, especially with implants. If they don't ossify correctly (they screw a Ti screw into your jaw and your bone grows around it) then you have to start the process over and it's 6 months later and you're right back where you were.
Plus there are places in the US in every major or regional city which exclusively do implants. Not just one Maxillar Facial Surgeon but a whole group. I've noticed prices dropping significantly. They're now half of what they were 10 years ago when I broke a tooth due to a sub gumline vertical crack playing rugby.
Adrian Diaz
Seeing the real Cage explains a lot. Absolutely based.
Nathaniel Ross
likely drill out additional decay. You could need a root canal if a root is exposed but I'm guessing you would have felt that by now. You'd also be able to feel a broken off cusp it would feel jagged and would drive you nuts.
Colton Robinson
I already grind my teeth, I have to wear a nightguard. I am trying to keep the teeth I have left though.
Quick question for you, doctor. I haven't been to the dentist in about 10 years. I've brushed every day twice, floss about 8 times over month, and use mouthwash almost every evening. No pain or cavities but should I get to a dentist anyway? I've usually had a plaque issue so I brush with Crest pro health .
Jace Brown
You're correct, FSA doesn't roll over. I put it the max(5k and some change for me) one year one to get my veneers, and a year later I put in the max again to get lasik.I didn't have an option for an HSA at my work at the time.
Alexander Howard
1 diazepam before bed is cheaper than having to replace molars my dude
Henry Collins
Very true. It's a sad day when I see cracked tooth/vertical root fracture, especially in a kid. But we have enough data now to say that implants have better survival when placed by a specialist (oral surgeon, periodontist,prosthodontist). You want someone that does this daily and not a few times a year. And there are SO many esthetic considerations. I wish i could explain them all here. Keep in mind that good esthetic results with an anterior implant depends on so much. You really need someone that is willing to coordinate with whoever is doing the restorative aspect or you will end up with janky abutments to correct angulation issues.
Jeremiah Lopez
Yeah, you're kawaii or something like that. btw do you have a neckbeard and no other facial hair?
Thanks dentanon It was a cusp fracture..:( Now I want a gold tooth
Mason Morales
Not that user, but I literally never brushed or flossed and I would swish the soda around my mouth because of the taste. Now half my teeth are gone and the other half are cavity-ridden.
Colton Perry
A check-up couldn't hurt to update some radiographs and really check for cavities but it's not NECESSARY, especially if you are confident about your habits. If you are healthy and go to a Doctor then they are more likely to harm you than help. Make sure you deeply trust your dentist
Gold is the "gold standard for several reasons. First it is soft, it won't wear the opposing dentition at all. Second, the marginal adaptation is flawless, leaving no gap between tooth and gold. It also does not tarnish. All dentists with posterior restorations have gold.
Liam Jackson

I had mine done by a Maxillofacial surgeon who had set up shop in a hick town that was 10 miles over from the chichi expensive suburb. I think the excision and the Ti screw placement and the false tooth that you have to wear and the final permanent was about 5k all in. I hear it's cheaper now.
The sad thing is you are so right with the 'keep natural teeth at ALL costs thing'. Case in point: I had an orthodontist who removed a tooth (premolar?) on each side to make the smile wider. The problem was that if I would have just broken off that tooth I might have not had to get the implant because it's barely visible unless I fish-hook my cheek but b/c my ortho took out those 2 molars I'm already 6 teeth down (2 pulled molars for ortho and 4 wisdom teeth), 7 with the vertical cracked tooth.

Never have had brackets, only complain is that they are getting a little bit yellow.
Dentist user, do you have any opinions on or experience with Clear Choice centers? The good lord blessed me with oligodontia; I need about 50k worth of work and their all in one facility appeals to me
Ryan Kelly
Sorry about your experiences. Being a dentist is interesting because everyone has questions and there are so many misunderstandings. Hearing non-dentists talk about dentistry is often frustrating and much like it would be to hear a man on the street give his opinions about brain surgery. This is why the most important thing to get from your dentist is TRUE information and education. Make sure you trust them deeply and sense nothing but honesty.
goodnight everyone

actors should lose teeth for roles if they're going to get them replaced anyways
last question, haven't head of them. Implants are within the scope of practice of all dentists. Ask . lots of questions and find out if you are being treated by a specialist or generalist and make sure that the dentist placing implants and the dentist restoring the implants communicate on the case. Sorry about the oligodontia

Getting his teeth done before blowing the prisoners, how thoughtful.

I had my wisdom teeth out about a year ago and they were very impacted. Sometimes it feels like there is still a cavity like pain on the bottom right side and there was some grinding and clicking. Now my jaw locks if I open it too long.
well time certainly isn't gonna go backwards, and you'll never know until you find out in my experience the people at the front desk will always try to work out a deal and split up payments, it works to their benefit usually then if something is fucked up you just need to speak with lawyers and it'll take off from there, everything covered
Logan King
The guy is just a walking stereotype
Nathan Fisher
Okay, I'll look into it. It's scary every time I go to the dentist now and my jaw locks up. Last time he had to push it closed for me.
Michael Foster
thats common knowledge though, he used to have completely fucked up teeth

Why would anyone ever turn their teeth to fucking this? Unless you had fucking a disease or something wrong with you where you have no teeth.

What’s the best way to whiten my teeth without getting veneers?
Samuel Sanders
UKfag here. Most of my teeth are okay, save for the farest molar on my right side which is basically a hole now, and my right canine which has a small hole just where the tooth comes out of the gum. Definitely gonna' get the hole tooth pulled, but in regards to the canine, the hole doesn't go through into the tooth, but it is slowly getting deeper and wider and it fills up with plaque. Can they fix the hole? If so, how? Will the colour be uniform? I love my canines and this shit is bothering me.
Levi Moore
Does baking soda whiten teeth or is it a meme?
Luis Perry
I hate looking at bad teeth, but acne helps my immersion for some reason. Apparently this was real. What other movies have stuff like this?
Mines were on for 4 years, when I became a teen and my wisdom teeth began growing he said "we're done you'll be alright now", two months later the wisdom teeth have made their devastating work and my front teeth are mostly fucked up
Brayden Ortiz
Sort of works, but it's rough on the teeth. Try coconut oil, swish around the teeth every so often
Kayden Reed
white strips it lightens them, but if you're teeth are already stained it wont turn them white
Jaxon Miller
I have a tooth so crooked it's like 3/4 backwards, if I had veneers it would be like half an inch thick, and braces would take AT MINIMUM 6 years to fix it. I've just learned to accept it at this point...
Camden Myers
u just a bitch
Jackson Sanchez
Are you stupid? Veneers are just less permanent caps and cheaper. They crack and fissure all the time and have to replaced a lot. I hate mine.

It was very nice of the dentist to do her makeup too.

Eating cooked meat allowed jaw musculature to be reduced which gave us our big brains.

The incisors and bicuspids get all the brunt so I've had those replaced a couple times whereas the rest is mostly fine.

In-office whitening, like Philips Zoom along with take-home 2 week trays. If you have a very honest dentist who also gives patient credit, the cost could be as low as $250 like it was for me, but odds are it might be a little more. It sucked being stuck in a chair for an hour giving a blowjob to a bright light machine and consciously having to swallow my saliva every 15 seconds so it didn't fuck with the bleaching gel, but the results were worth it. Over-the-counter at-home remedies simply can't whiten that deep. It's been a year and a half and while taking proper care of my teeth, I'd say they're still 90% as white as when I walked out of the office.
Hunter Garcia
watched The Fury (1978) recently. At one point the girl screams, opening her mouth wide and you can see almost all of her teeth have fillings. Thought that was interesting.
Thanks to this thread for scaring the crap out of me. I take good care of my teeth already but holy fuck I'm never doing any of this crap unless I absolutely have to due to illness.
Jaxson Johnson
I've always marveled at his teeth
Aaron Martinez
I've noticed a lot of English actors have fucked up teeth. And actually, non-American actors more generally often have wonky teeth. Seems like it's very much an American thing to go for the perfect, straight white teeth look.
Remember to brush after every meal. And floss at least once a day. Preferably before you go to sleep, so food particles don't sit in your mouth overnight. If you work long shifts, take an extra brush and paste with you, so you can brush at work.
Seriously, brushing only once a day is NOT enough. Your teeth will rot by the time you're 25. Don't sleep with a filthy mouth.
Bong here, never known dentists to prescribe medications, would be best to go to your doctor I got a pack of 60 for nothing lmao
Anthony Hughes
It very much is an american thing. Its pretty customary for a normal teenager to have braces in middle/high school. I really wonder what started the whole thing, you'd think parents telling their kids "you cant get a good job or a good girl without great teeth! its the most impressionable part" was a meme but it's real as fuck
Nolan Morales
You know dentistry is a fucked up "profession", when multiple dentists are browsing Yea Forums. And at these hours too. It's monday fucking morning. What are you doing with your life?

Dentists are the scummy salesmen of the medical industry, always trying to upsell you on shit rather than just trying to make you better.
Alexander Ross
they can very, very easily fix your canine hole. they just use tooth coloured filling. you'll forget all about within weeks of it being done, that's how realistic it is.
Jason Scott
Arghhhhhhh!
Grayson Mitchell
Is it permanent?
Adam Butler
go back faggot
Landon Allen
I start in 1h
whats the problem here
dont listen to this autist, do NOT brush your teeth after every meal, you're wearing your teeth down
you should be brushing maximum twice a day, once in the morning and once in the evening, floss and mouthwash that shit in between
