Mariing itinanggi ng Kapamilya actor na si Jake Cuenca ang kumakalat na haka-haka tungkol sa kanyang ngipin.
Kamakailan ay maraming netizens ang nakapansin sa napakaputi at halos pantay-pantay na ngipin ni Jake.
May ilang nagsasabing pustiso raw ito at mayroon din namang espekulasyong nagpa-veneers daw ang aktor.
Ayon sa Cleveland Clinic, ang veneers ay isang klase ng dental restoration para ma-improve ang hitsura ng ngipin, lalo na ang ngipin sa bahaging harapan.
Ginagawa itong treatment para sa may ibang hugis ng ngipin, may space sa gitna, discolored na ngipin, chipped, or may maliit na sira ng ngipin.
Nakakatulong ito para mapaganda ang hitsura ng pagngiti ng sinumang nagpa-veneers.

Jake denies claims that he has veneers
Upang tuldukan na ang kumakalat na espekulasyon, nagsalita si Jake upang itangging nagpaayos siya ng ngipin gamit ang anumang cosmetic dental procedure.
Saad ni Jake (base sa YouTube video na ini-upload ng Cinema Bravo), "Actually, I want to clarify this now. I've been quiet about it, but my teeth are 110 percent my natural teeth.
"Like, they really are.
"I've never even worn braces in my life."

Pagbabahagi ni Jake, malaking tulong ang paghinto niya sa pag-inom ng alak at paninigarilyo kaya't naging maputi ang kanyang mga ngipin.
Dagdag pa raw rito na kada dalawang taon ay sumasailalim siya sa teeth whitening.
Sabi ng aktor: "I understand na they improved through the years.
"Kasi, of course, I was drinking before. I've been sober for four years.
"So your teeth naturally get whiter if you don't drink alcohol.
"And I used to smoke two packs a day of cigarettes. So my teeth weren't in the best place in the world before.
"And hence, even the issues back then with the bad breath, it wasn't about anything else but smoking. But no one really wanted to say na yosi iyon, di ba?
"But I don't smoke anymore. It's been ten years.
"And it's been four years of sobriety for me.
"For me, honestly, I can tell you quitting alcohol, quitting smoking played a very big part.
"Also, whitening them every two years, you'll maintain it white, that's my secret."

Mabilis na sagot dito ni Jake, "What am I gonna defend? Ano pa idi-defend ko? These are really my teeth."
Kung tutuusin sa daming negatibong komento at pangungutya raw sa kanya ay napapaisip siya ngayon na hinding-hindi na niya ito palalampasin pa.
Iniisip daw ni Jake na sampahan ng reklamo ang sinumang magpapakalat ng maling impormasyon, lalo na ang mga taong pinupuntirya ang kanyang mga ngipin.
Pahayag niya: "Actually, to be quite honest with you, I was thinking about this...
"Sabi ko, I challenge any media outlet, lalo na the people who are making content about it, kasi it's so unfair. Di ba, na parang you're making false content.
"So I challenge any of them to bring a licensed dentist, check my teeth. But if I'm right, sigurado, I'm gonna take legal action on this.
"If I'm right, ha, bring your dentist, any dentist. And then we'll confirm if my teeth are really veneers.
"If they are not, then I'm gonna sue you. Kasi ang dami niyo nang content na ginawa about it.
"So, that's my stand on it."
Dagdag pa niya, "For the people na pinipilit nila na veneers ang ngipin ko, I challenge them."
