ZuluUK: A Leeds-based dental professional, known as Dr. Phil, is facing online criticism for a smile makeover he performed, likened to Jim Carrey’s iconic grin in ‘The Mask.’
Dr. Phil shared the makeover on TikTok, showcasing the client’s teeth before and after the procedure. Despite the promise of a “fake and square look” in just four hours, the result has triggered a wave of mocking comments on social media.
The Four-Hour Makeover
The video, amassing over 1.1 million views in less than 24 hours, revealed the dental guru’s process using nanofill composite bonding. The non-invasive procedure involves cleaning and roughening the teeth, applying glue, setting it with blue light, and finally, adding composite for the desired “square” smile.
The online community criticized the makeover, with many arguing that the client’s natural smile was already perfect. Some compared the result to “piano keys” or “dentures.”
The divisive reaction highlights the subjective nature of cosmetic dentistry and individual preferences.
Despite the backlash, Dr. Phil expressed pride in the outcome, describing it as an “amazing result.” He defended the procedure, emphasizing its predictability and the achievement of symmetrical results across all teeth.
Varied Opinions
While some comments praised the enhanced symmetry achieved through bonding, others questioned the necessity of such procedures. The mixed response highlights the subjective nature of cosmetic dentistry, where personal preferences and opinions play a significant role.
The four-hour transformation came at a cost of close to £4,000, emphasizing the price individuals are willing to pay for aesthetic enhancements.
However, the critique underscores the importance of considering individual preferences and natural beauty in cosmetic dental procedures.
Despite the polarized opinions, Dr. Phil’s work sheds light on the evolving landscape of cosmetic dentistry, where the pursuit of the ideal smile is subjective and, at times, met with unexpected reactions.
