Remember the days when footballers looked like the rest of us? Not anymore. Today footballers are the ultimate celebrities like actors, musicians and reality TV stars, and that means they need a beautiful white smile to go with their genius footballing ability and superstar image.
If a footballer wants to succeed in the 21st century, they need a smile that dazzles on the front of sport, celebrity and news magazines, not to mention social media and public appearances.
These days, footballers are more than footballers, they are marketing superstars fronting marketing campaigns for some of the biggest health, beauty and luxury brands in the world.
In this article we highlight 10 famous footballers who have overhauled their smiles to help them become the modern faces of the beautiful game.
