George C. Scott's teeth in "Patton" were intentionally made to look bad as part of his character portrayal. The decision was made to reflect the rough, tough persona of General George S. Patton, emphasizing his ruggedness and military grit. Scott's teeth were fitted with dental appliances to achieve this effect, adding to the authenticity of his performance. This choice contributed to the overall characterization and visual impact of the film.
