That's an old stereotype thing. People there tend to have good teeth these days. Its always been mistaken in the past that because teeth were not white or perfectly straight that they were not clean. but infact its perfectly natural for teeth to not be perfectly white and have a slight tinge. The British used to be happy with just Brushing there teeth and not so worried about having them perfectly white or straight.

Today British teeth are good with each younger generation looking for that Hollywood smile and its a practice being past on each generation. people under 35 there tend to have real good teeth these days with "some" older people tending to opt for cosmetic dentistry to get that perfect smile.

Its also been another missconception that when Americans compare British teeth they compare "average british public" against " American Hollywood actors" ofcourse there will be a difference there. but in reality if you compare "average british teeth" to "average American teeth" there realy isn't "that much" of a difference only in people over 35 or so.

The British are commonly known for their bad teeth. While many believe this is an unfair statement because every country has people with dental issues many comedians use this in their jokes.

Not all of British people have crooked teeth. The British people that did have crooked teeth were because they did not care of them.

Why do Chinese crested dogs hang their tongues completely out of the left side of their mouth?

Because of loss of teeth. If you see a dog of any other breed who has lost its teeth to old age, injury, illness or poor nutrition, their tongues hang out too.

How might you be able to distinguish between a person who practices good oral hygiene and one who does not?

Many oral problems are caused by poor hygiene. Others result from poorly aligned teeth. Halitosis, or bad breath, can be caused by eating certain foods, poor oral hygiene, smoking, bacteria on the tongue, decayed teeth, or gum disease. So over all, the way you could tell if some one has poor oral hygiene is by the color of their teeth and their breath and some one that does not have poor hygiene, will not have yellow teeth and stinky breath and their tongue wont have a white layer of bacteria on it.
