I'm Judy Smith. I work as a stylist for some very famous personalities. Models, television presenters, singers and actors are on my client list. Obviously, my clients care greatly about their appearance. Diets, fitness regimens and beauty products are common topics of discussion. However, I am astounded by the terrible teeth I see every day.

Whoever you are, thank you for gracing this corner of the universe.
