In a bizarre moment during the preliminary competition of Miss Grand Thailand on Wednesday, Kamolwan Chanago, representing Pathum Thani, experienced an unprecedented mishap.
While delivering her introduction on the runway, the contestant's veneers suddenly slipped off.
Quickly regaining her composure, Chanago caught hold of the dental fixture, turned around, and pushed it back into place.
She then faced the audience, smiled, and continued her ramp walk without delay.
Throughout her performance, Chanago maintained a smiling demeanor and exuded confidence.
At the end of the stage, she showed off her teeth for a few seconds while posing in a shimmery evening gown.
After closing her mouth and turning around, she completed the rest of her walk. Her bravery drew loud applause from the audience, spurring her to finish the routine with poise and even smile for the camera.
The incident went viral after The Urban Herald shared the video on Instagram on March 27. While some online users made light of the moment, a large section praised her composure.
