SEE VIDEO: Paul Potts to get new smile

Britain’s Got Talent winner will spend winnings on fixing teeth

Paul Potts, Britain\'s Got Talent

Britain’s Got Talent winner Paul Potts has revealed he’ll spend his £100,000 prize on regaining his smile.

The mild-mannered phone salesman has had problems with his teeth ever since he was involved in a childhood accident.

‘When I was 14 I ran into scaffolding and one of my teeth went up behind my nose and got damaged,’ says the 36-year-old.

‘I had a crown put in but it got damaged and the bridge came out.’

Paul, who was £30,000 in debt before entering the talent show, did not have the money to deal with the problem.

Now that he’s got £100k in his pocket, he'll soon be beaming from ear to ear.

‘I want to smile naturally without feeling self-conscious,’ he tells the Daily Mirror.

Let’s hope he gets his new knashers in time for his Royal Variety Performance in December.
