  • Last week, fans noticed that Dakota Johnson’s gap in her teeth closed.

  • Now, Twitter is freaking out and wondering why.


Never in my life did I ever think I’d have to type out these words but ... RIP to Dakota Johnson’s tooth gap – you will be missed. Once a definitive characteristic of her super cute smile, the gap is no longer. Dakota did the same exact thing that Demi Lovato did when she signed that employment contract with Disney Channel — she closed that up and said, “Adios” not even looking back to even consider the drama it would cause. But hey, the power of corrective dentistry, amirite?

Yesterday, a fan took to Twitter to express that something was off about Dakota’s look. “I just found out Dakota Johnson fixed her tooth gap and I’m kinda sad because that was like her brand but if it makes her feel better I’m all for it u go queen,” the user wrote, along with a new image of Dakota smiling with teeth — sans gap.

Naturally, when the news began making the rounds, gap-toothed Twitter was super upset. Even though I personally don’t have a gap in my teeth, I can totally understand why fans are mourning the loss of Dakota Johnson’s. Like Madonna, Brigitte Bardot, and SpongeBob, Dakota had the potential to be a gap-toothed ICON. It’s a huge loss for the gap-toothed community, TBH.

In case you’re in absolute disbelief that Dakota truly closed her gap, here’s an image of her from last year giving us a biggggg smile while promoting Bad Times at the El Royale last year.

As you can see, something’s changed. Like the rest of Twitter, we’ll just have to wonder why. Whatever that reason is, it’s Dakota’s face and she can do whatever she wants with it period!
