Despite pearly white teeth being historically inaccurate in the Old West, the overall story and accuracy of the socioeconomic conditions matter most in 1883.
1883 goes to great lengths to ensure historical accuracy, with every set, prop, and costume built from scratch and attention to detail in set design.
While some fans have criticized the characters' teeth as a historical inaccuracy, the importance lies in the immersive effect and compelling story, not minor details.
