Nathan Aspinall has unveiled a dazzling new smile following a cosmetic dental procedure, with his doctor joking that they “hit the bullseye” with the transformation. The former UK Open champion shared a video of the end result on Instagram, showing his teeth significantly whiter and his smile given a clear refresh. The treating doctor, Dr Stephen Dodd, captioned the footage: “We think @drstephendodd hit the bullseye with @asp180's new smile.”
The cosmetic work came shortly after Aspinall returned from a stag party in Ibiza, where he celebrated his upcoming wedding with a group of friends and fellow darters including Joe Cullen, Chris Dobey, and Ross Smith. The group visited several well-known nightlife spots on the island, including the popular O Beach. During his stay, Aspinall also ran into England international footballer Ella Toone at a beach club. He regularly shared clips of his trip on social media, making it clear the stag party was enjoyed to the fullest.
Fan reactions poured in under the video of his new smile. Many followers praised the look, while others joked that his smile now looks as sharp as his finishing on stage.
Now, the focus has shifted back to darts. This weekend, Aspinall will be at the oche at the Slovak Darts Open in Bratislava. As a seeded player, he enters the tournament later and on Saturday faces the winner of the tie between Jim Long and former major winner Daryl Gurney. The current world number sixteen hopes to continue his strong form of recent months in Slovakia, having firmly re-established himself among the world’s elite this season.
On his way to Bratislava, Aspinall was reminded of his Ibiza trip. In an Instagram clip, he showed himself at the airport and quipped: “This time last week I walked through these doors wearing a dress.” With that remark, he offered a glimpse into the exuberant stag do celebrations. Whether the new “Hollywood smile” brings him extra luck on stage will become clear this weekend at the Slovak Darts Masters.
