<p>I had a gap between my two front teeth that I really hated - it detracted from my appearance and made me feel very self conscious. I really don’t think it’s attractive on anyone - even Lauren Hutton would look better without it. I got veneers as soon as I graduated from college and could afford it. I had them redone a few years ago and I’m really happy with them - I used a dentist who is nothing short of an artist. Veneers don’t have to look like perfect white chiclets - mine are natural, but very pretty. An excellent dentist can combine artistry with technology to produce amazing results. </p>
<p>My daughter did a project in the UK as a HS student a few years ago - the UK students (a fairly well-off group) all looked like they had straightened teeth, but evidently, none of them had heard about whitening, and one girl asked my D how she got such white teeth.</p>
