Funny Teeth...

My teeth are very straight... I just have a crossbite.

Do braces help crossbites as well because I am reaching 2 years almost and my crossbite seems to still be here but my teeth are all so much straighter... only a slight crossbite anyways.

Ah... we have to wear retainer after I get these braces off? I don't want any more of this! :(

LOL.

Yeah, my Japanese friend has crooked teeth. It doesn't really bother me but when I first saw her smile I noticed it a bit but I just got used to it.

yeah I noticed their teeth too. I suppose if they're happy with them and they don't cause problems eating, it's saving them a lot of money! ;)
I always complained my canine (??) is kinda vampirish but here they tell me it's cute..... but I'm lucky besides that and haven't had to have braces - wow that's expensive!!
I REALLY don't want to go to the dentist here because I've heard many horror stories plus Japan isn't big on pain killers -ouch

I'm not sure if it's the teeth that make those girls cute.:)

My wife's Japanese and her teeth are straight along with the teeth of most everyone in her family. About two-thirds of the people I knew in Japan had crooked teeth, though. For some people the look works and for some people it doesn't.
 
I much prefer straight teeth, i agree with the person who said its a shock when you see a really pretty girl, then she smiles and WAM! teeth going left right and centre! Nop, not for me...

I have met someone like that too, I was nice-and-all but on the inside I was saying "THE POWER OF CHRIST COMPELLS YOU, THE POWER OF CHRIST COMPELLS YOU"

:devilish:

but I aint much to look at, so....eh whatever comes my way is good enough(hey, im not shallow).
 
I was just thinking of this in Japanese class yesterday. I was checking out my teacher and she`s pretty hot but damn she needs to get those teeth fix. If those were straiten she would be mint.
 
I think in some cased the Canine thing is Trﾃｨs Kawaii( mixing up languages, as the lingu I am :D ) but In some cases it's UGLY...Oh yeah....here in Belgium braces are cheap LOL...and we get our teeth checked 2 times a year 👍 ....AND....hehe yeah yeah....we have a health plan so we pay much but get A WHOLE BUNCH OF MONEY back from it...The only thing I love bout this country 😊

I have often wondered why their teeth were so bad.

My dentist says that oriental people's jaws are smaller than others yet our teeth are the same size, so most times it's a tight fit!

My mom has naturally straight teeth, but they're very close together, so everytime she flosses, her gums bleed.

My front two teeth are crooked, but I don't intend on getting braces. Don't really mind the imperfection.
 
That's interesting, michi. I have never heard that theory before.

My husband's teeth are naturally straight too. His front teeth look perfect. If he smiles really big, though, you can see nothing but silver from the canine teeth on back because of crowns and fillings. His teeth were in terrible shape before he came to the U.S.

You know, I wouldn't have minded the imperfection in my teeth either. It would've saved my parents a lot of money(that just wound up being wasted, because of that wreck), and I wouldn't have the problems that I do now, like TMJ(temporomandibular joint disorder).

I really don't care much about teeth... there are much more important things on a girl.
My teeth are relatively straight, I'd say, never had to wear braces.
 
I like yaeba.

on my wall at here in my front room is a 6ft tall picture I made, she has yaeba (its a print of this
 
I think it has something to do with the teeth being too big for the jaws. :p
 
I've always been a big fan of a straight smile and was a little shocked when I first got to Japan, but got used to it pretty quickly. Americans are pretty hard core about straight teeth. I remember hearing Japanese people accusing Westerners of being obsessed with their teeth. It's all about the expectations of your culture. In England a perfect smile isn't as important and that's why SOME English people have messed up teeth (sorry if I've offended anyone, but it's true). Having good teeth takes a lot of work and you're not going to bother to do it unless something is really motivating you (or your parents).

I heard that one of the reasons Japanese people have bad teeth is because there's salt in their toothpaste, but I don't know if that's true.
 
I don't find it that bad, though it does become noticeable and I do admit that some of it are cute. Though I think it still doesn't beat straight teeth. Having things even kinda looks better. I'm sure most would probably think that a person with even sized eyes looks better than one with a large and a small one. ^^''
 
like this ﾂｰ_O ??? :p :D ....Some ppl look just cute with uneven teeth ..seen some of the girls from Morning Musume ??? Or Hikaru Utada..??? They are so damn hot....even if their teeth are a bit of 😍
 
But if you're an American with bad teeth then you'll fit right it...Just Kidding...I've always had bad teeth and I was always a bit ashamed in the States but in Japan nobody cares as much so it's nice to fit in...so to speak. :D
 
Good for you, then. :D
Eri Kamei from Morning Musume looks pretty cute with that tooth sticking out. I think she has a adoring smile with that. :p
 
i've met a lot of taiwanese and mainland in the past few weeks (since new years celebration) and NOW i think op was just trying to bash or something on the sly :(
"It's all about the expectations of your culture."
that's it! totally right
well i agree with it anyway :)

Never understood why Americans think the British have bad teeth ?
Americans just bombard their teeth with too many whitening chemicals :P

So that's another thing Japan has in common with Britain.

Bad dental hygiene.

As for the toxic fluoride,

Toxic Effects of Fluoride

Wholy Water Purification Service. Bath or Shower, drinking water, and whole house water filtration systems. Remove chlorine, fluoride, lead, bacteria, cryptosporidium, THMs, and more.
