Are you proud of your teeth? Many are, although if each of them were to ask their dentist, they'd see frowns. that's because dentists are less happy with the condition of their patient's teeth and resulting smiles than the patients are.

Norwegian researchers said this week that although patients look at their teeth as one of the most important overall aspects of their facial attractiveness, dentists were not assessing the condition of all those teeth nearly as favorably.

In addition to that smile, patients surveyed and observed in the study ranked various facial features to overall attractiveness in addition to those teeth, including hair and hairline, eyes and eyebrows, nose, skin, ears, lips, teeth, chin and the shape of the head. What did those surveyed dislike about their teeth? The color, with a majority rating that their teeth were "too dark."
