Kim Kardashian’s Dating Criteria: Straight, White Teeth Required!
Reality TV star and businesswoman Kim Kardashian has recently let fans into a little secret about her personal life: her unique "turn-on". The surprise isn’t about her preference for tall, dark, and handsome men or those with a witty sense of humor. Instead, it's all about their teeth - the straighter and whiter, the better!
Following her split from boyfriend Pete Davidson, Kim candidly disclosed her preferences on the newest season of The Kardashians. A radiant smile with straight, white teeth is what truly sparks her interest. As she revealed, the perfection of a man's smile directly correlates to her level of attraction, inevitably causing the term "teeth turn-on" to trend online.
While she has not explicitly addressed the growing speculation around her teeth "turn-on", fans are intrigued and amused, as evidenced in the Instagram clip found on her official account here.
While this may seem like an idiosyncratic dating preference, research suggests that Kim is far from alone. In fact, the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry reports that nearly half of all adults consider a smile the most memorable feature upon meeting someone new.
Further adding weight to the importance of oral aesthetics, a Match.com study revealed that 71% of women and 58% of men judge potential partners by their teeth. A radiant smile isn't just about good oral hygiene. It's an emblem of confidence, health, happiness, and can even hint at professional success.
Kim's revelation serves as a nudge to all those single and dating. Investing in your dental health and aesthetics may not just boost your self-esteem, but could also improve your chances of making a stellar first impression in the pursuit of love.
