If there's one thing about Jimmy Carr that cannot be taken away from him, it's his honesty.

The successful comedian and TV presenter has been extremely open and candid about the beauty work and cosmetic procedures he's undergone over the years, amusingly calling it his "midlife crisis."

And while Jimmy isn't afraid to take aim at others during his, at times, shocking comedy routines, it seems his biggest target is often himself.

In a recent interview with The Telegraph, the 8 Out of Ten Cats Does Countdown host poked fun at the number of treatments he's had, quipping: "Christ, I'm like the Forth Bridge - it never stops."

Jimmy also pointed out that "maintenance" is the key, explaining that plastic surgery isn't the answer, but instead embracing beauty enhancements that keep him looking his best.

However, he did admit that he has certainly been indulgent when it comes to having work done.

Jimmy has candidly revealed in the past that he's had a few rounds of Botox here and there but has also undergone work on his teeth.

Jimmy's teeth before

Like a lot of celebrities, Jimmy has paid for professional work on his teeth to ensure his gnashers are sparklingly perfect.

"I've gone a bit crazy with it," he said during the same interview.

"I've got the new teeth and the new hair - I've had a proper midlife crisis. Like, 'Right, let's get everything done'."

This photo from Jimmy was taken in 2006 and there's no doubt that the comedian's pearly whites have changed over the years.

Interestingly though, it appears the work he's undergone is relatively subtle as, fortunately for him, his natural teeth were quite straight to begin with.

This photo also proves how his teeth were straight, however, there is a slant on one of his top incisors that is visible in this snap.

Jimmy's teeth after undergoing work

Jimmy is pictured here earlier this month, and it's abundantly clear that his smile has undergone quite the A-List makeover.

His teeth are completely uniform in terms of size, shape and colour.

Jimmy then revealed that he paid to have veneer-style work done on his teeth.

Dr Safa Al-Naher, from Serene Dental in Knightsbridge, says that Jimmy is likely to have spent thousands on making sure his pearly whites are perfect, more specifically in the region of £10,000 - £30,000.

"In recent pictures of Jimmy, it looks like he might have had a full mouth reconstruction.

"This procedure means we are able to pay attention to the overall look of the smile and it allows us to reset everything and we can tackle issues like the slant Jimmy experienced and or any shifts in the midline."

Safa continued: "I suspect he's had a full mouth rehabilitation and reconstruction, including crowns and veneers on the front teeth and on the back teeth as well.  

As cosmetic dentists, we follow a certain set of rules to achieve the perfect smile. Based on those principles and on what the patient wants, in terms of shape, colour, size, lip position, etc., we can design the smile, which is bespoke for that patient. I suspect that’s what Jimmy has had done in the second picture.

"Jimmy would have spent anywhere between £10,000 - £30,000. The veneers he initially had would be at the lower end of the scale, but if he did a full mouth reconstruction, then it would have cost up to £30,000."

The porcelain finish, which is hugely popular among the wealthy elite, gives a mega-watt pearly smile that wouldn't look out of place in Hollywood.

Jimmy opened up about the work he's had done on his teeth during an appearance in a podcast interview with Gabby Logan.

In fact, the comedian shared that his teeth were his first target when it came to having work done.

"My cosmetic journey started about 10 years ago. I got my teeth done – that's more than veneers, I would say. 

"It was the first thing I had done, and I got every tooth in my head done in one sitting. It was quite full-on."
