Ozzy fails tooth test

Ozzy Osbourne and Melanie C are the Britons with the worst teeth, according to a new survey.

The poll of bad gnashers also picks out Tony Blair, Ann Widdecombe, Gareth Gates and Vivienne Westwood.

The Britons with the best teeth, according to the survey, are Pierce Brosnan and Elizabeth Hurley.

George W Bush was voted the American male with the worst teeth in the survey, while Bill Clinton's daughter Chelsea was named as the female most in need of the dentist's help.

Top of the American teeth stakes in the poll were Brad Pitt and Julia Roberts.

The survey of 1,000 people in Britain asked a range of teeth-related questions.

Almost half the men polled said they would have teeth-whitening treatment compared with 35% of women.

Good teeth and a nice smile came second in the list of what females look for in men, after eyes.

For men a good body was the important thing they look for, followed by eyes, hair, and teeth.
