Turns out, this is just one example of a fictionalized storyline that didn’t happen. The real Gypsy Rose did lose her teeth. Just not in the way the Hulu series showed.

So, How Did Gypsy Rose Blanchard Lose Her Teeth?

According to We Got This Covered, a medication called Carbamazepine is likely the reason Gypsy Rose’s teeth were rotten and crumbling out of her mouth. More commonly known as Tegretol, the medication is prescribed to treat convulsions associated with epilepsy. As those who know Gypsy Rose Blanchard’s real story know, epilepsy is one of the conditions her mother treated her for. Unfortunately, one side effect of the medication is the damage it can do to a person’s teeth.

Furthermore, Gypsy Rose also had poor hygiene and nutrition under the care of her mother. This combination made it easy for her mother to convince the world she was extremely sick. It, however, did all sorts of damage to the health of her hair and her teeth.
