If you are able to achieve some notoriety with a crooked tooth (or three), is it really worth it to try and fix your teeth down the line?

For these stars, it was something they felt was necessary. Like many of us, when they got the money and the time, they got some work done.

[Maybe a] reality show, ‘Fab Gets His Tooth Fixed.’”

Well, he did it! Are you digging the change?
