I tend to agree with this. All of my British friends have had work done on their teeth AFTER they have relocated to the States. They say that serious dental work in Britain is more costly than here, where alot of insurance companies will cover it (except braces, which is considered cosmetic). I've also met alot of Brits who have terrible teeth, and yet these are educated people with good jobs, good hygeine and otherwise regular lives. So maybe it's just not a priority over there. I remember reading an interview about Elvis where he was talking about having met the Beatles (at the height of their fame) and how he was appalled by their teeth. He said for guys who had as much money as they did, he didn't understand how they could not get their teeth "done."

Didn't Pierre Casiraghi have braces? For some reason I remember seeing a picture of him with braces (but I could be wrong).
I know, as an option a while ago, you had the choice to put your braces on the back side of your teeth. I don't know if they still offer that, so maybe many royals had braces & we never knew

Most braces allow you to get elastic bands with lots of different colours. Speed braces usually have a "power" band that goes on the top and bottom, so, I guess you could have 2 colours every month. My friend had a different type of braces where the individual brackets each had a different band, and thus, potentially, a different colour.

Lady Sarah Chatto, Viscount Linley, Princess Elizabeth (Queen Margrethe's first cousin), and Princess Ragnild of Norway all needed braces and never got them. I am not trying to sound cruel...but check out their overbites. It is so noticeable on all of them, you cannot help but stare. Even Princess Anne could have used them.

The Armstrong Jones did have braces, but unfortunately British Dentistry puts the proffesion to shame, unless you are private of course, or better a Harley St doctor. The older Princess of York (Beatrice I think) straitened her crooked teeth, but could do with surgery to correct her bite, she has what is nicknamed "A long Face" in dental terms. In General the Windsors do have a canine look inherited all the way down from ... Queen Mary. A shame they don't do anything to properly fix the goofy or horsey look.

I think it's great that they wear braces instead of just taking the easy route and having caps placed over the teeth. It makes them seem more human. Prince Pavlos and Marie-Chantal of Greece's daughter looks like she needs braces. She's still young, but I'm sure that they will do something for her in the next few years.

Princess Maria-Olympia of Greece and Denmark wore braces, if you look closely in this picture, from Celbrity Kidz and scanned by Lucidu.

One of her brothers, I'm pretty sure its the oldest, either Constantine or Achilleas, I always get them confused, looks as if he has braces in this picture, from the same source as above.
