A WOMAN who was bullied over her teeth for most of her life has revealed the lengths she had to go to so she could gain a confident smile again.
She's since spent $30,000 to get them completely replaced and now works in modeling.
Zsandrea (@zsandreaofficial) shared her story and glow up in a video with over 9,000 TikTok followers.
"I spent $30,000 to replace all of my teeth," she said.
She smiled as she explained that her teeth are now all-porcelain crowns.
"I had tetracycline stain on my teeth," she explained, pulling up an old photo of her teeth with the yellow stains that sometimes arise as a side-effect of taking the antibiotic.
Although the procedure was costly, the influencer felt like she had to go through with it for the sake of her mental health: "I was bullied for years," she explained.
Commenters flocked to the post to share their reactions to her glow-up — although some felt the procedure was unnecessary.
"And the bullies won..you lost 30k," said one commenter.
She was unfazed, however, and explained that she made her money back quickly: "It’s ok after this I got a modeling gig, I got my money back in 6 months."

"I think only people who’s gone through bullying would understand why I did this," she added.
"When you experience emotional pain all your life, you’d want to change."
Others supported her decision and congratulated her on her new happiness.
