Former American Idol contestant Crystal Bowersox is one lucky girl- she just got her teeth done for free. A Cosmetic Dentist from New York admired her singing talents, but felt sorry for her when the media criticized her for her teeth and sent her a letter offering a multitude of services for free, including teeth whitening and gap-filling. The letter promised he wouldn’t make her teeth perfect like every other Hollywood celebrity because that’s not who she was. (I don’t know about you, but her teeth in this picture don’t seem all that flawed to me.)

Of course, as this writer observes, the Dentist actually sent out a press release which included his letter, definitely calling into question his altruistic motivations for offering the free dental work. Despite this, I have to admire his unique marketing and would like to let him know that if he (or any other dentist with similar skills) would like to offer me a cosmetic make-over, I would definitely post the before and after pictures on a blog complete with a detailed story about the services and my experiences.

The above picture of Crystal Bowersox and her glorious teeth is from the singer’s Twitterstream- I think her smile tells all although I can’t say whether or not it is from her teeth alone or the new record deal that she just signed with Jive Records.  What do you think?
