Dental veneers may have improved Gordon Ramsay’s smile, according to one newspaper.

The Daily Mail has speculated that the foul-mouthed TV chef, who owns a chain of restaurants in London and across the world, has had cosmetic dentistry costing between £7,000 and £10,000.

Veneers are made from thin porcelain and fit over the front of a tooth.

His teeth seemed more even, whiter and less pointed at a recent appearance to talk about his new US television programme, a version of hit show Masterchef, on the Fox Television Critics Association summer press tour earlier this week.

The F Word star revealed recently he had had cosmetic work done on his chin, but admitted that no one had noticed until he announced it.

“Am I going to have any more work done? Of course I’m not,” he said at the time.

He claimed that Botox fan Simon Cowell had convinced him to have the fillers injected into his face.
