“Still having a shortage of dentists in the UK, I see,” another cheekily observed.
A third was quick to emphasize, “LAUD, the king of England can’t afford new teeth or has just never cared? 🤷🏼♀️”
“Don’t they have dentists inGreat Britain?” questioned a commenter.
And netizens, unexpectedly, stared right at his teeth

“I just don’t think the Brits think about pretty teeth like Americans do but William and Kate have nice teeth,” someone added in. “Of course the king could afford perfect teeth but his wife doesn’t have them either. Maybe it’s the older folks.
“My main concern when I see bad teeth is what else is going on in there? Decay, rot, disease, bad breath? It could be Vietnam in there. Teeth matter. Teeth are important. Food, shelter, teeth…”
But a few others focused more heavily on the portrait itself andKing Charleshimself.
“Beautiful, and uses the technique of classical painting — the diagonal line of the table and bookshelves draw the eye to the center of the picture, the focal point, and the lighting on his face is what catches the eye first,” analyzed someone who was speculated to be a photographer.
“Oh he is a handsome little devil. Love the skirt,” one person complimented.
Additional netizens extended their well wishes to the monarch for his ongoing battle with cancer.
Others talked about the composition of the photograph

He continued, “It is equally heartening to hear how sharing my own diagnosis has helped promote public understanding and shine a light on the work of all those organizations which support cancer patients and their families across the UK and wider world.
“My lifelong admiration for their tireless care and dedication is all the greater as a result of my own personal experience.”
“Don’t they have dentists in Great Britain?” one person jokingly asked
Just last month in December, sources from the palace confirmed to The Post that “his treatment has been moving in a positive direction, and as a managed condition the treatment cycle, will continue into next year.”
In the same month, while recapping 2024, King Charles also extended his sympathies towards his daughter-in-lawKate Middleton, who was diagnosed with cancer back in March.
“All of us go through some form of suffering at some stage in our life, be it mental or physical,” he stated in a pre-recorded message at his annual Christmas address. “The degree to which we help one another — and draw support from each other, be we people of faith or of none — is a measure of our civilization as nations.
“From a personal point of view, I offer special, heartfelt thanks to the selfless doctors and nurses who, this year, have supported me and other members of my family through the uncertainties and anxieties of illness, and have helped provide the strength, care, and comfort we have needed.”
A chorus of people chimed in, hyperfixating on the monarch’s hygiene
