I, too, agree, Michele, as I've expressed earlier in this thread. It's interesting to read everyone's opinions and consider how valid they are for our own circumstances, but ultimately it comes down to a question of personal preference. A number of your portraits include visible teeth and I think they work wonderfully; it all depends on the look the artist is aiming for - as well as the nature of the subject.

Sometimes it seems that a lot of unnecessary energy is being expended in efforts to set up a hard and fast rule - for whether teeth should be shown, or whether the client should see a work in progress, and so forth - when it's basically just a matter of individual taste and working methods. So many of the people on this forum are wonderful artists who have developed their own unique styles; the diversity of subject matter, composition, process and marketing techniques is what makes SOG so fascinating and such a wonderful learning experience.
