Straight, expensive, blindingly white. No, I’m not talking about Donald Trump’s vision for America; I’m talking about teeth. Namely the sort of teeth you see on American TV shows – and, since many US politicians seem to love cosmetic surgery – the evening news. Everyone from Z-list influencers to Taylor Swift to Trump himself seems to have perfect teeth.
Americans have always been invested in their smiles, but an increasing number of British people are also shelling out for veneers. You need sunglasses to watch the telly these days, everyone’s smile is so bright.
