I was trying to convince my daughter that she didn't need braces to straighten her teeth given that the (attractive) Charlotte Le Bon has very crooked teeth and is a leading actress but to no avail.
To her American mind-set, Charlotte has bad teeth, no convincing her otherwise.

Her teeth add so much to her beauty. She's adorable.
shareI grew up in England, think Austin Powers teeth, and never thought much about crooked teeth, including my own, until I moved to America. Yes, there might be an obsession with American's and their the teeth, but having your teeth straighten corrects your alignment which can reduce pain when eating for some (there are other problems just look them up). Anyway, as we get older our teeth can shift making the teeth more crooked and they will stand out more.
So, in my humble opinion straightening teeth is worth it. Finally, I had my teeth straighten in my 30's and it gave me the confidence to smile more, I just wish I had done it sooner.
Nothing like conforming to the keyboard teeth … all lined up for the pepsodent smile … I think Le Bon's smile is charming … just like Matthew Perry's was before he got the denture teeth look.
shareSaw "Bastille Day" recently, and it looks as if Miss Le Bon has had some work done on her teeth - they seem straighter. Hopefully she won't feel the need to go for full-on American tombstones,.
No tears please, it's a waste of good suffering.share
I am afraid that Americans are deluded about many things.
