Marvalyn Foster sued Darren Martinez, a dentist from Stamford. Foster asked Dr. Martinez to give her a permanent bridge to replace a false tooth. Foster wanted a “big, beautiful, Hollywood celebrity smile.”

Foster meant to replace a tooth to match the rest of her teeth and make it look nice. Dr. Martinez extracted 3 teeth and made a large bridge. Martinez’s idea of a big smile was to make large teeth. Foster described the new teeth as looking like horse teeth. The court’s jury, of Bridgeport, Conn. took 2 hours before returning their verdict on Monday, Dec. 22. Foster was awarded $198K for damages.
