The caption read:

"You all making gaps now (pervy eyes emoji)?"

In the short 14-second clip, a man uses a dental micromotor to smooth the two front-most incisors of her upper jaw.

The teeth are where a crevice is visible in people with a natural gap.

Most people have four incisors on both the upper and lower jaws, including the front two teeth and the teeth on either side of them.

Each incisor has a narrow edge to help cut into food when one bites.

The viral clip of the woman who cut a happy figure after the transformation, which was clearly not done by a dentist, caused a frenzy, surpassing eight million views in less than 24 hours.

Over 7200 likes, 3600 bookmarks, 3400 reposts and 1500 responses graced the mentions.
