Derick Dillard has responded to fans who seemed to be teasing his new braces-free smile. Earlier in the week, Dillard posted a series of photos of himself and his son Israel at an Alzheimer's awareness event. In the snapshots, the former reality TV star is still wearing braces, which prompted some fans to point it out since he was recently seen without them.

"This is from last week. I just got them off at the end of the week," Dillard responded to one of the inquirers.

Someone else sarcastically asked, "I'm so confused why his teeth are moving sideways," to which Dillard replied, "The midline issues are from the surgery by accident. Nothing we can do about it now."

Dillard first showed off his new teeth in a separate post made by his wife Jill Duggar on Instagram earlier in the month.

The Counting On alum took to the social media site to share a photo of herself and Dillard, in which he debuted his fresh smile.
