Shut it Yank.. My teeth are very nice
Because we are not as self-obsessed and hung up on appearance as certain other societies, and don't get sent to orthodontists from the age of two!
Yes, it's surprising that we have bad teeth when you consider that you yanks eat all the junk food
Probably because they have better things to spend their money on - like real beer (nearly as good as aussie beer)
I still have my own teeth at 75.
Full of feckin holes mind
Dentists are really expensive in Limeyland. They all drive BMW's and live in the best neighbourhoods..it's not the Limeys fault,they can't afford Dentists!
Boooo!
How's about I bite you, then we'll see how bad my teeth are?!?
its a stereotype you stupid american. go and read a book or something
Im english but I can see why you think that. My teeth are ok, could be better. Fortunately they dont really notice!
I do see some people about and think now wonder we have such a bad reputation for our teeth. I hate bad teeth, brown and decaying, there is no excuse for it especially as dental care can be done on the NHS.
My teeth are lovely thanks to FREE braces when I was a teenager.
And I have to agree with others about your overgeneralisation. How come Americans are fat, stupid, humourless and bigoted? I can play that game too, it's fun!
they don't put fluoride in the water there
We British are proud to be called Limey's. Now do you know the reason why.? You have I presume, heard of Captain James Cook, the Great British Naval Officer who forced his men to eat limes and greens on board ship to prevent scurvy, and guess what..it worked. That's where the saying comes from, and from my history tutor at college who said, "If anyone calls you a limey, tell them you are and you're proud of it".
As for bad teeth, well don't you have a reputation for fast foods. I think if the shoe fits.wear it! This cannot be a serious question, if you've travelled the world, believe me, everyone is different and everyone knows that wherever you go, you will meet people with good teeth and bad teeth. I don't believe I'm answering this question.
I thought the American's thought they were the greatest superpower in the world. You have too much time on your hands. In God We Trust. Does that mean anything to you. Because it is God who makes the difference in a persons life. Just ask Jesus Christ into your life and ask Him to reveal Himself to you and when you receive the Holy Spirit, you will begin to find out the important things in life, maybe even some proper questions will come from you
Same reason why all yanks are thick as sh*t fat f*ckers, in-bred banjo playing dumb f*ck, plaid wearing losers !
See..it's not nice to generalise is it !
Try paying the dentist bills here , anyways at least us "limeys' do not walk about with a butt the size of barn doors.
Couple of reasons.
Firstly the whole trend for cosmetic dentistry hasn't really come over here yet. We're starting to get a few celebs who've got what we term 'American' teeth (or Tippex Teeth) and cosmetic dentist clincs are starting to open up in the major cities. Like most trends we import from the USA it'll pick up slowly but surely.
I think the amount of people with 'bad teeth' in the UK compared to those in the USA is probably not as different percentage wise as you think. I'm sure the kids in your ghettos can't afford orthodontics, just as those on our sink estates can't. As per percentage of citizens with bad teeth we're probably on a par.
That is unless you are counting bad teeth as those that are healthy, white, in pretty much a straight line but not so neon that they cause the blind to recoil in the light.
If incandescent whiteness is your yardstick, then yes most of us have bad teeth and we're quite happy about it.
Come on chaps, this is a windup and you are all biting with your alleged bad teeth, lets all suck on a lime and let the piano teeth people get on with their burger.s
Keep a stiff upper lip and nobody will know.
poor dental care- National Health, you know.
