That's becoming considerably less true with, say, my generation.
Oh, I'm sure dentist-access is better. But, like, in Britain, it's not weird for an actor to have crooked and slightly gray incisors. I don't think orthodonture is nearly as common on your side of the pond, and I'm downright pleased that it's not compulsory to be considered worthy of being filmed.
(Especially considering I
had
orthodonture, and
still
don't have completely straight teeth. Wisdom teeth, how I hate you.)
Nodding like a bobblehead at SA's post. My experience is similar, coming from Depression-era parents who felt victorious at having clawed their way into blue-collar class, and had no truck with their cuckoo's egg child's airs and graces, wanting college and travel and experiences outside church and home.
Having that laid out, all in one place all logical-like, was really helpful in identifying and sharpening focus on the things that separate the two brothers from each other, and both of them from the society they protect, and which Sam at least professed to want.
I always notice the teeth of the characters on the screen.
You've ruined me. When I watched Lost this week, all I could think about was Mr. Kwon's nearly perfectly straight, white teeth when he's supposed to be a poor Korean fisherman. The teeth mesmerized me.

I often have the same problem with Deadwood.
If I remember correctly, Jin's dad rocked so mightily that I have no problem with nature gifting him with perfect teeth as karmic payback.
Thanks to everyone who's been revealing their lj alter-egos.

I'm Pandarus on LJ, by the way. Not that I've written much fic lately, mind, but there are links to old
BtVS/Angel stories, Smallville, SPN, Harry Potter
and various other things, should you be interested. Tends to be slash, but some gen and some het too.
