Kate Garraway Shares Video of Pre-Show Dental Mishap, Gets Temporary Teeth

The presenter says a taxi window cracked her front caps, with a denture adhesive quick fix failing minutes before Monday's broadcast.

Overview

  • Garraway posted Instagram footage on Wednesday showing cracked front tooth caps and describing the behind-the-scenes scramble at Good Morning Britain.
  • She said she tried Fixodent at around 3 a.m., but the fixative gave way moments before going live, causing a fragment to fall out.
  • An emergency dentist fitted temporary prosthetic teeth, which she joked were oversized as she playfully referenced friend Alan Carr.
  • Colleagues and followers reacted with support, including comments from Susanna Reid, Jonathan Swain, Charlotte Hawkins and Ashley James.
  • UK outlets reported her account and images from Instagram, with Garraway noting she hoped the temporary set would hold for the next morning's show with Richard Madeley.
