Stu Laundy is flashing a brand new smile – weeks after narrowly surviving a devastating motorbike crash in Vietnam.
The millionaire publican and former Bachelorette winner, 52, took to Instagram on Wednesday to unveil his dental transformation, posing alongside cosmetic dentist Dr Dan at Dental Implants on Miller in Sydney.
‘Best veneers even if you haven’t just smashed them up on a moped in Vietnam,’ he joked in the caption. ‘Plus he’s my best mate.’
Wearing a navy sweatshirt and sporting an arm sling, Laundy looked to be in good spirits as he posed next to the popular cosmetic dentist, clearly chuffed with his new pearly whites.
The dental upgrade comes after Laundy admitted that he was lucky to be alive following a horror motorbike crash while holidaying in Vietnam last month.

The pub baron, who was travelling with family, was struck by a truck and thrown from his bike in a terrifying accident that left him hospitalised with a long list of injuries.
‘I was in and out of consciousness for a while. I got a busted knee, sternum, shoulder, ribs, clots in my lungs and infections,’ he told The Daily Telegraph at the time.
‘Vietnam hospitals are not that crash hot so Dad organised to have me flown home. I’m very lucky.’
Stu’s billionaire father Arthur Laundy reportedly organised a private medical evacuation for his son, arranging for him to be flown back to Australia on a specially fitted medical jet, complete with a doctor and two nurses.
After arriving home, Laundy was rushed to Royal North Shore Hospital in Sydney where he underwent two surgeries. He is still in recovery and slowly regaining his strength.
Laundy also credited his ex-wife Rachel, a nurse, for being by his side throughout the ordeal.
‘Rachel never left my side,’ he said.
‘Lucky she was there. The accident just happened from nothing. I was riding along and a truck pulled out of its lane and I ran straight into it. At 52, I probably shouldn’t be riding a motorbike but the truck driver has accepted the blame.’

Laundy became a household name when he won Sophie Monk’s (right) season of The Bachelorette in 2017
Known for his extensive hospitality empire and high-profile connections, Laundy is a familiar face in Sydney’s social scene and was instrumental in helping the Canterbury Bulldogs land Phil Gould in 2021.
He rose to national fame in 2017 after winning Sophie Monk’s season of The Bachelorette, although the pair split just months after the finale aired.
‘I went into this experience looking to settle down and start a family. I gave it the best shot I could,’ Sophie wrote at the time, announcing the end of their relationship.
‘But unfortunately it just didn’t work out.’
