I don't think that's true. The stereotype is that they eat a lot of candy. But really, it's a gross generalization. |

That's just a stereotype you see on TV, it's not true. Maybe they got it coz brits smoke so much. And people who smoke have yellow teeth... :S I dunno. |

Generally we don't have better or worse than other nations. It's just the way that certain popular actors that get into the USA main stream have certain dental states.
Some people in USA have bad teeth, but they're never in the lime light. |

That's a stereotype. Many of them have good dental hygiene, but there's a broad spectrum of people there, just like in most places. Some do. Some don't. |

Gross generalisation. I have almost perfectly straight teeth, no fillings and they look really nice. Are you trying to annoy people? Not nice. |

Generalisation is a terrible thing - it would be like saying all Americans are stupid!! |

Try living in the North East of Scotland and finding a dentist, whether NHS or private - it's impossible and there's so many of us up here who simply cannot receive treatment as there are a shortage of dentists, despite us paying taxes etc. Not all "Brits" have poor dental hygiene. This is like saying that all Americans are fat and live on fast food isn't it? Our dental service is appalling. I have to travel 200 miles if i want to see my dentist, and i'm not joking. |

You are quite obviously american. Where do you get it that us BRITS have poor dental hygiene? Quite obviously you are aware that the americans are the fattest nation on the planet - so your food is good, but there is such a thing as eating in moderation - you should try it us Brits with "bad teeth" do. I think I'll use the phrase "throwing stones at glass houses" you moron. |

Just a racist stereotype. |

You are aware that, by asking this question, you are giving the impression that you are an ignorant moron easily influenced by out-dated stereotypes. It would be like a Briton asking why are Americans so fat or why do they not have a clue about world affairs?
If anything, these days, statistically the British will have better dental hygiene than Americans because we have free/low-cost dental care. Every child under eighteen is entitled to free dental care, including orthodonic care, as is every pensioner, pregnant mother, war vet and the unemployed. Now you compare that to America where, for every person who can afford good care there will be half a dozen poor folk who don't have the cash for anything. |

We dont or more to the point we dont spend a fortune having them bleached. Its an Urban myth like why are Americans so fat. Oh wait thats not a myth. |

Cos no bloody NHS dentists will take new patients and not everyone can afford to go private!!
I've tried for months to register my son but no dentist will see him!! |

this is an overgeneralizing stereotype, and is not fair, as some people in EACH country or culture have poor hygiene. it has more to do with an individual person and his attitude toward cleanliness and the resources available to him. |

What is your nationality? Will you not answer as the stereotyping of your nation is a lot worse than teeth?
Just looked at your other questions. You are an arrogant obese, self centered gun toting murdering naive, gullible American.
Not my opinion by the way but stereotyping is a sh!tty thing don't you agree? |

You've been watching too much Austin Powers. But I don't know, why do Americans have poor physical health with the lack of excersise and obesity these days? It all goes along with our cultural advancement and stuff like that. |

♪Oh.Yeah!♪
|
Thats a STEREOTYPE!!!
Im British and I have great teeth!!! =D
**Why do Americans have dentures!!!???**
EDIT: British people in like the Victorian times had bad teeth because they ate soo much sugar! They would put sugary stuff on their teeth as they thought it made it cleaner! |

That's the funniest question I have seen on here to date!!!
LOL soooooooo true!
Of course, not ALL brits have poor dental hygiene... just compared to most western countries they do
(We're not included underdeveloped countries in this, are we? That wouldn't be fair...)
Maybe there is less fluoride in the water there?
Maybe the sun has something to do with it? (or lack of?)
But then if the brits have poor dental hygiene, then why are americans so arrogant? Why australians so lazy? Why do new zealanders like sheep? hehe we could go on like this all day...
(c'mon, I really love all these countries - and isn't it our differences that make us all so special?... quick picking on people!! hehe) |
