Would you date someone with messed up teeth?

Question

Let's say you meet someone. You guys get along well, you have things in common, and he/she is just a dope ass person. BUT, they have some fucked up teeth. I mean, like busted AF. Could you look past that?

I personally love pretty smiles and nice teeth. It's a big thing for me. I wanna say that I would be able to look past it, but idkkkk lol.

I wouldn't date someone with really really bad teeth because teeth are the very first thing I notice when meeting someone.

But I also wouldn't date someone with those fake veneer teeth either... I'd rather they have their natural teeth even if a few of them are not perfectly aligned. It has character.

Those fake veneer teeth are too perfect and don't look natural at all. It lacks a lot of character for me. Makes them look like all those other shallow Instagram models that have it (along with their other fake shit).

Missing teeth I couldn't really do.

But I almost dated a girl who had something that caused her teeth to yellow. She was super self-conscious about it. But they were nice teeth. Just yellow af. As far as I'm concerned, if it ain't contagious, I don't care. It wasn't, and I didn't.

Teeth are fixable: a crappy personality is not.

So depending on the circumstances (ie: are they bad due to poor hygiene and lack of care, or health issues, unable to afford the dentist...) I might date him. Like I said- teeth can be fixed with a good dentist and some implants, assuming he's willing.

i like near perfect teeth. The closest i can come to “not so perfect” is a sexy vampiric canine smile. Its like fck yea bite me baby! I looooved his teeth before I hate his teeth after. I don't know if he had braces or what but i dont like fake straight teeth. I want au naturale

KitKnickKat · Answer

It definitely depends on the person. I used to have a friend that had really messed up teeth but she was really beautiful other than that and her personality was awesome. Many people still dated her too!
But in my opinion, if you really have to sit back and think about it for a while then it’s probably best to just not date them. If you could look past it, I don’t think it would be a question in your mind, you would just do it. If that makes sense.

Daniela1982 · Answer

Some people either hate dentists or can't afford to go to one. Getting dental work done can cost thousands which is hard to swallow when you have no dental insurance. So people just let their teeth go. But, they can always be fixed with implants and look as good as natural teeth and last a lot longer. It's true though that a lot of people get turned off by first glance. But in watching some old movies I have noticed that a lot of good actors had really gross teeth, so you never know.

Kaneki05 · Answer

Depends how messed up. Dunno why people are saying their fixable tho maybe if rich? Then I don't really class mine as messed up there not pearly white and I do find such a routine of it not that easy to me. But there not yellow yellow.

It's not something I would notice a girl had if she had teeth like mine. I think it's more when it starts becoming yellow yellow then.. maybe not. But I don't know I am pretty subjective.

melanieeeB · Answer

Nope.. i already turned someone down just for having really yellow teeth.. It was as if he had not brushed them at all..

MCheetah · Answer

Sorry, no. Imperfect teeth, fine. Even slightly yellow teeth, sure. But a "yuckmouth?" I simply can't. It grosses me out too much.

Shark_61695 · Answer

I broke one of my front teeth years ago and the dentist can't fix it easily so I can't complain about others :) Minor cosmetic issues are less unattractive than a terrible personality.

FinalFantasyBro · Answer

Nah, I couldn't date anyone who doesn't take good care of their dental hygiene, don't get me wrong I ain't saying she needs perfect, and flawless teeth but I actually would want her to care for her own health. I usually try keeping my teeth in good shape and I definitely expect her to do the same otherwise us both could lose our teeth and start using dentures from poor teeth treatment.

Anonymous · Answer

Being clean , and appearing clean is a trait part of a certain character / personality. Therefore , if someone is dirty and doesn’t fulfill the requirements I’m looking there is no need for me to debate if I’ll date a “ yucky mouth “ because I ant looking at them at all at diets place.
Unless they had an accident or don’t have money that’s ok we can help it
Other than that , No

Jamie05rhs · Answer

I'm sorry, I can't. I just can't. I have rejected some really sweet girls because of this. And I feel bad about it. But I just can't.

sunflower00 · Answer

Crooked teeth or a bit yellow are fine. But, if they’re unhygienic and missing teeth because of that or have brown/black/orange/really yellow dirty teeth absolutely not

FreyaRed · Answer

I see it rather like car mechanic who sees an interesting car after total crash and thinks, damn hundred of hours of work and investment of thousands in parts.  I have really better things to do.

TheUniqueOne96 · Answer

It depends how bad they are, like if they're a bit discoloured and not overly bent, then yeah, but if they're just straight up dirty, then no, unless she sorts them out.

NathanDavis · Answer

yes... and it could even be fixed, easily enough

slatyb · Answer

I would wonder why they haven't had them fixed. Eventually this leads to tooth loss.

Anonymous · Answer

I have definitely seen some sets of teeth that would make me be turned off, so have to say no to that if it is very bad.

pleasestopthis · Answer

Dirty, rotten teeth or cavities everywhere are definitely a turn off. Crooked teeth are fine.

AndrésC64 · Answer

I don't think I could. I couldn't get past the teeth and I definitely wouldn't want to kiss someone like that.

RationalMale · Answer

No I couldn't.  It's a question of WTF is wrong with you that you didn't go fix your teeth, so what does that say about you.

Anonymous · Answer

Depends on how messed up it is I guess. If they still maintain a good hygiene then I guess…?

SpaceGalaxy · Answer

as long as she has a nice round, bubbly ass, hairless legs, small, pedicured feet, full set of lips, no facial hair, and average sized tits, why not?

Dinosaursandanime65 · Answer

A wee crookedness here of there wouldn’t be a problem but if they aren’t even there then I don’t like
