With the Olympics, the Queen’s Jubilee, the Mars Curiosity Rover landing, the discovery of Gangnam Style and the release of The Hobbit, 2012 gave us plenty to smile about. So which were the best grins of the year? Let’s have a look back over the famous smiles that lit up 2012:

1. Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge

The former Kate Middleton is well-known for her ready, genuine smile. Being royalty, her every move is scrutinised very closely, so it’s important that she keep her teeth in top condition.
