Star gets veneers put it, claims it was just teeth whitening

Just two weeks ago, Lindsay Lohan walked a red carpet with “rotting” teeth that prompted even her estranged father she was most certainly smoking crack. Today, Lindsay has a brand new smile.

The legally troubled actress, who's due in court any day now for parole violation, found some time in between community work and posing for Playboy, to get her teeth fixed.

While it's clear from the photo she posted on her Twitter account that she had veneers put in (because the shape and length of the teeth is different), she claims she only got them whitened.

“Thanks Dr. Dorfman for the zoom… My gums are so sore though!” Lindsay writes under a photo of herself smiling broadly for the camera, which you can also see attached to this article.

Dr. Dorfman, we learn from Us Weekly, is actually a dentist to the stars, so this can only mean that Lindsay won't be able to claim in court that she's too broke to pay her own expenses like she did once.

“[He is] a high-profile, L.A-based dentist who’s worked with such stars as Eva Longoria, Jessica Simpson, Anne Hathaway, Usher and Ozzy Osbourne,” the celebrity magazine writes of the person behind Lindsay's bright new smile.

As we also informed you a while back, Lindsay got a lot of media attention a couple of weeks ago, when she flashed a “rotting” smile on the red carpet.

The minute photos of her were online, speculation began on what kind of drugs she was doing to damage her teeth to such an extent, with many voices agreeing with Michael Lohan on that she was probably smoking crack.

Lohan didn't address these rumors, but that's probably only because she's sick of always being made a negative example of – and wants it to stop.
