June “Mama June” Shannon has fans concerned about her teeth.
The TLC star posted a TikTok video from her trip to Covington, Ga., earlier this week and showed fans all the sweet treats and sprinkle-coated ice cream she and her family bought from a confectionary called Scoops.
As she spoke to the camera about how wonderful it felt to support small businesses and not be recognized, her once pearly whites appeared to be terribly stained, alerting fans.
“Her rotten teeth are probably due to terrible hygiene,” one unsettled fan slammed in a Reddit thread about the video.
“They look somewhat white, just rotten and gray,” a second added.
A third chimed in, “Veneers certainly can look gross if you don’t care for them.”

Ice cream or not, the “Mama June: Road to Redemption” star knows a thing or two about rotten teeth.
In 2020, she took “Inside Edition” into the dentist’s office with her to document herself getting pricey veneers after her crack cocaine drug addiction destroyed her natural teeth.
During her interview, Shannon admitted she blew through about $700,000 in “seven or eight months” for her drug addiction with her then-boyfriend, Geno Doak.
“Our habit was anywhere from $2,400 to $4,000 a day,” she confessed.
