While Johnny Depp amassed a huge following with his quirky acting, not all of his fans approved of his appearances and fashion choices. His rotten teeth aspect became a topic of discussion when Depp attended the Cannes Film Festival in May of last year. While social media trolled the Pirates of the Caribbean actor for his poor dental hygiene, an old interview of him resurfaced where he proudly spoke about his teeth.

Interestingly, Depp made his rotten teeth a part of his character as Pirate Captain Jack Sparrow and even got gold caps on his teeth for the first three movies. Some argue that it’s high time the actor paid a visit to the dentist.

When Johnny Depp graced the red carpet of the Cannes Film Festival to promote his film, Jeanne Du Barry, he gained social media attention for a weird reason. While Depp had been in the news for a long time due to legal issues with his ex-wife Amber Heard, this time the focus was on his rotten teeth. Both worried fans and haters took to social media to discuss Depp’s dental hygiene.
Fans pointed out that the Alice in Wonderland actor needed to see a dentist immediately. One critic found Depp’s teeth disgusting, while some others came to the actor’s defense. Amidst these discussions, several media outlets brought up an old interview he gave to Premiere Magazine in 1995, where he openly talked about his rotten teeth.
He admitted to having loads of cavities and revealed that his root canal from eight years ago remained unfinished. However, the Edward Scissorhands actor had no issues with his unhygienic teeth and even embraced the ‘imperfection’. He expressed pride in his teeth and detested the fake perfect teeth of some people. He added that he would rather eat a bug than have such teeth.
The interviewer noted that despite the rotten teeth, the chain of cigarettes, and the numerous glasses of merlot, Johnny Depp’s reath did not have a bad odor. Fans can draw a lesson in confidence from Depp, as the actor never holds back his smile due to his perceived ‘imperfection’.
Experts Comment On Johnny Depp’s Rotten Teeth

Celebrity dentist Dr. Apa shared that Johnny Depp’s rotten teeth were a case of aggressive wear and tear. He added that the wear was a “cumulative effect over a lifetime.” The doctor suggested that it was not particularly concerning for the 59-year-old Depp, as he had seen similar cases in 30-year-olds. He recommended veneers for The Tourist actor, although it seems unlikely that Depp would opt for it.
The aggressive wear and tear may be a result of Depp’s bad habits over the years. During the trial in his legal cases against The Sun and Amber Heard, Depp admitted to smoking cannabis and using cocaine previously. He also admitted that he spent more than $30,000 per month on wine. He even entered rehab multiple times in an attempt to control his habits.
