Meghan has the perfect smile which is "naturally white"

She adds that the American actress has "a symmetrical broad smile which reaches to the buccal corridors [the space between cheeks and teeth] and her teeth are elegantly contoured with feminine curves and even shape. The colour is fresh and naturally white." She adds: "Teeth should not be whiter than the white of your eye!."

Dr Krystyna interestingly adds that there has been a slight decrease in patients requesting a stereotypical ‘Hollywood' smile and veneers are on the decline. More people are making the most of what they've got - and according to Dr Krystyna, there’s been a more “conservative approach" to dentistry. “Straightening with Invisalign or braces, bleaching the teeth to whiten, or bonding the teeth to refine the edges.”
