He captioned the image: ‘1990 with original teeth.’ 

In the picture, a younger Bob is seen showing his teeth in all their glory.

They wrote praise such as: ‘I had the biggest crush on you when I was 14…. mind you, still do!’;

‘Thats when I had the biggest crush of my life.. And @RealBobMortimer is still my most fave celeb ever. 30 years on [sic].’;

He said: ‘For the past 15 years, I have performed my own dentistry.

‘I don’t do extractions. I do fillings, crown replacements… I don’t do implants, I don’t do root canal.’ 

Bob, who rose to fame in the Nineties as part of the comedy double act Vic and Bob, said that he carries out his own dental work with Fuji 9, a type of dental cement

Despite shocking the Would I Lie To You? panel with the admission that he does his own dental work, he said the only thing he struggles with is seeing what he is doing when attending to his teeth.  

The resurfaced picture comes after Bob recently opened up about facing his own mortality following triple bypass heart surgery in 2015. 

He said on Kathy Burke’s podcast Where There’s A Will, There’s A Wake that he is no longer afraid of dying.

Bob said: ‘I don’t feel scared about death, I just feel so frustrated and sad to think I won’t see how stories end.

‘My children’s story. My wife’s. The football. All the stories going on in the world that you’re going to miss the end of.’
