As time went by and he aged, a few of Mark’s teeth seems to have needed to get straightened out. He was never pictured wearing braces in public, so the 2026 World Champion might have used Invisalign.

One of the pictures from 2018 shows one of Mark’s lateral incisors to have gone subtly under compared to his central incisors and canines. 

In his recent win at the WST Classic, Selby was pictured with perfectly aligned teeth once again. Throughout the years, he might have also had a teeth whitening treatment, which is a simple treatment. 

The discoloration of teeth is a common phenomenon. The teeth whitening treatment helps to offset the discoloration and helps the person gain a bright smile.
