I got lip surgery to look like Angelina Jolie’s, but my smile still doesn’t look quite like hers.  Is there a way to get my teeth to look just like hers?

Angela,

It is possible to make your teeth look like anyone’s. However, it is extrememly important you get the right dentist.  Most people don’t know that cosmetic dentistry is not a recognized specialty. ANY general dentist can call themselves a cosmetic dentist, regardless of how little they actually know about cosmetic dentistry.

If you find a fantastic cosmetic dentist, and there are some great ones in Miami, you can definitely have teeth that look like Angelina Jolie’s. You could even get teeth that are even prettier than hers.  You’ll want to get porcelain veneers.

Your priority will be to find the best cosmetic dentist possible. I would start your search on the mynewsmile.com website.  They recommend only the best cosmetic dentists in each state. No dentist can pay to be listed. Instead, they have to demonstrate their technical expertise and submit sample cases to show their artistic ability.  It is not easy to get on their list.
