    Asking to re-arrange a 2nd time would look really very bad.

    I would introduce myself, explain the mishap, explain that it's being fixed, and do my best to plough ahead with the interview.

    Are you applying for a job at 'The Gap'? If so, I think you're in.:D

    On a serious note, just mention it, but make a joke of it, you don't want them thinking you're uptight or too serious.

    Chances are they'll ask you how you are, say something like, " I'm really good, although I recently tripped over and lost a fight with the pavement - hence the missing tooth"

    I'd hope they wouldn't count a missing tooth as a negative, but in reality, given the job, they probably will do(unofficially of course).

    Thanks for the replies everyone. Had both interviews, just made a joke of the issue really!

    One of the jobs is a no goer due to salary and will hear about the other midweek probably.
