Why do a lot of British people have bad teeth?

When I see them on TV a lot of British people have crooked or yellow teeth.





Even the Royal family have bad teeth.





I was watching British movie stars and many of them have bad teeth too!





Are Americans just obsessed with perfect teeth?

Why do a lot of British people have bad teeth?
The short answer is that we don't treat our water with fluoride as you Americans do. And in answer to your second query, yes, I believe Americans do obsess too much about "perfect" teeth.
Reply:Americans are obsessed with teeth whitening. I think our country is the most obsessed with hygiene.
Reply:If you're looking for a serious answer, I can give you one. Historically, rich people sported bad teeth as it showed they could afford sugar. Since Britain was the first industrialised country in the world, it was the first to have mass urbanisation, and as people moved off of farms the quality of their diets declined. This was a long time ago but the former factor in particular created a mindset that dental care wasn't a priority, and the American obsession with perfect teeth was frivolous.





However things are changing, as this news story below will tell you.
Reply:americans seem to be more self obsessed with there looks and having to all conform to the barbie and ken stereotype of girls bleached hair and guys dark hair big fake boobs fake nails fake tan or real over exposed sun damaged skin and the whitest straigtest teeth they can get whether they are their own or bought along with the rest of their fakeness.


if this seems unfair then maybe you americans should stop generalising about the british.


I have straight white teeth and they are all my own.


if you don't like to be put into stereotypes don't do it to us.


Also have you not watched jerry springer


the guests on that show dont usually have any teeth atall.


We could ask why are most americans obese..


if you're goin on actors well considering they only make up a tiny percentage of our population they are hardly anything to go on.


Just shows how superficial people can be doesnt it.
Reply:Could I ask in return why so many Americans are illiterate? (As evidenced by the first three posts in this thread!)





It beggars belief that anyone in a Western Industrialised nation could have such a poor level of education. And that they would be quite so happy to display it in a virtually racist post on a public forum!
Reply:I think that's a stereotype. I've only been to London twice, recently, and I thought everyone's teeth looked very nice. Also, the teeth of my British co-workers (all 4 of them) look better than mine! I HAVE seen what you're talking about, though. It's a shame that a few people make everyone else look bad.
Reply:Something to do with their " not taking proper care of their teeths!!!!!"
Reply:cuz they are lazy and they don't brush there teeth
Reply:They have differnt religions like for example auston powers english and still dosent brush his teeth
