Maya Jama, the host of Love Island, has responded to critics questioning her recent dental transformation. The 31-year-old presenter made her return as the host of All Stars, reuniting former Islanders for another shot at love.
After her appearance on the show, viewers took to social media to comment on her new look. Some remarked on her teeth, with one user mentioning her “Turkey teeth,” a term often used to describe overly white and straight veneers.
Maya Jama quickly addressed the criticism, clarifying that she had actually gotten braces fitted. She explained that she had braces behind her top teeth and on the outside of her bottom teeth, aiming to correct any alignment issues.
Details of Maya’s dental treatment were openly shared by her dentists, Dr. Annika Patel and Dr. Rhona Eskander, who revealed that she had chosen lingual braces to discreetly straighten her teeth. They praised her decision and thanked her for entrusting them with her smile transformation.
Fans showed support for Maya’s decision, with positive comments flooding in on social media. The discussion around Maya’s dental work comes as Love Island: All Stars premiered, with an additional episode airing to make up for delays caused by wildfires.
Love Island: All Stars continues to air on ITV2 and ITVX, captivating audiences with its drama and romance.
