The introduction of veneers not only altered the alignment and appearance of her teeth but also contributed to a more youthful, vibrant smile.
Four years ago, Victoria's son, Cruz, posted a photo of he and his mother in matching white robes. In the photo, the pair flashed toothy smiles at the camera.

Cruz shared the photo and captioned it "Apparently my mum does smile." David Beckham quickly joined in on poking fun at Victoria, saying her teeth were extremely white.
While many laughed at the men in Victoria's life poking fun at her smile, many others commented how incredible she looked when she smiled.
Although Victoria seemingly continues to cover an insecurity, she is trying to teach her daughter to embrace them and has even expressed regret at having had cosmetic surgeries.

When her daughter, Harper Beckham, told her mother she was insecure about the gap in her teeth, Victoria told Harper that it was her lucky gap. Similarly, when harper expressed concern about a mole, Victoria told Harper that Cindy Crawford was told to remove hers, but it was what made Cindy Crawford famous.
Talking about her own cosmetic surgeries, Victoria shared, "If I’m honest, I wish I’d never [gotten implants]. It was a moment in time, and I think I can share my experiences with her. But we’re not there just yet."
In addition to teaching her daughter to embrace her differences, she is also teaching her to do the same with others. This stems from Victoria's own childhood experiences.
Victoria admitted to being bullied in school. She shared, "I never fitted in socially. And when anybody is different, kids can be really mean. I remember being mentally bullied, physically bullied, literally pushed around."
Now, Victoria tells her daughter that if she sees someone who is different, or who is being bullied, she should try to be friendly with them and make them feel comfortable.
