Dentist gets credit for Simon Cowell’s win.

Simon Cowell’s X Factor won the award for Most Popular Talent Show at the National Television Awards last night (January 20th) and as part of his speech, he thanked his dentist.

He dedicated the prize to his dentist Rob Neil, but fellow emergency dentistry professional Edinburgh-based Biju Krishnan noted mainly people do not wish to have quite the same level of dazzle as Cowell’s famous pearly whites.

“Being someone in the public eye, Simon naturally cares a lot about his appearance. His mixing with the Hollywood set means it’s important for him to sport a showbiz gleam,” commented Dr Krishnan.

Elsewhere, Karen Gardner wrote in an opinion piece for Round Town News that many Brits could benefit from teeth whitening treatments, as the procedure could help to boost their confidence.

She noted a person’s smile is how they greet the world and when that is looking its best, people can feel their best.
