Mario Falcone and fellow TOWIE member Little Chris have had their teeth whitened in preparation for the reality show’s trip to Marbella this summer. Mario and Chris attended a Harley Street clinic that provided the service for around £300, which left the Essex boys delighted with their ‘blinging’ teeth.

A friend of the pair said that the whole cast were excited about the upcoming holiday and added that ‘they are making sure they are looking the business before they hit the beach.’ As well as brightening their smiles, the cast are keen to get in shape before jetting off to warmer climes, and rumour has it that Chris has also been working with a personal trainer.

A dentist from the LoveLite clinic said that Chris had to return to the surgery for more treatment because he didn’t follow the after-care instructions. ‘Chris hadn’t been as careful as he could be, so he came again.’ Donnamarie McBride explained, ‘There are different shades of whiteness depending on just how white your teeth are naturally, Chris’s teeth are naturally very white and he went for the maximum shade of whiteness – it is really bling. She went on to say that Mario’s teeth were in ‘better shape’ so the results were more natural after only one sitting, ‘we were able to give him a nice shade of white with his first procedure,’ she said.
