Nowadays people have several ideals of what oral beauty is and how it plays a role in their culture. American cultureĀ perceives white teeth to be the more attractive approach to teeth. On the other hand some southeastern Asian countries like Vietnam and Japan perceives black teeth to be more beautiful and elegant. American and Japanese cultures have very distinct viewpoints in oral hygiene, beauty and public approval. However, both Japanese and American culture helps enrich peopleās beauty and way of life in their own distinct way.
