‘Bad Girls Club’ Alum Winter Blanco Becomes Emotional While Speaking On ‘Severe Pain’ Due To Botched Veneers: This ‘Ruined My Life’

Former reality TV star-turned-podcaster Winter Blanco is using her platform to speak on the dangers of bad dental work.

The Behind The Likes co-host shared an emotional video with her almost 2 million TikTok followers today (May 29) about the consistent pain she has to endure due to the veneers she received a couple of years ago.

Speaking candidly, she said,

“The stuff that I have been dealing with for two years because of my freaking teeth is like, I don’t even know what to do anymore, and the only place I can really go to is my platforms. …two years ago I had dental work done at Smile Dental Center 32 in Miami and it ruined my life.”

As she started to cry, Winter Blanco quickly collected herself and continued,

“I just left another doctor, another TMJ doctor, this is the third or fourth one that I’ve gone to, and I’m just very overwhelmed. The medical industry, the dental industry in America is – they literally do not care about what you are going through, everything is about money for them. And I understand, people have to get paid, but, the fact that I can’t do anything. I can’t use insurance, I can’t do anything. I’ve already spent $80,000 on this whole situation.”

According to Winter Blanco, she now has “severe TMJ” due to the veneers she received. The Cleveland Clinic medical website defines TMJ (Temporomandibular Joint Dysfunction) as a condition that “causes pain and tenderness in your jaw joints and surrounding muscles and ligaments.” It also notes TMJ can lead to “headaches and difficulty opening and closing your mouth.”

She continued, noting she spent “another $30,000” in hopes of finding a solution to the issues the veneers have caused, but it “didn’t fix it.” And to make matters worse, the former Bad Girls Club star said doctors recently told her it could take “another 80k” to correct her teeth, but there’s still a possibility “that might not work” also.

Wiping away tears, Winter said she’s been “praying” to find a medical professional who can really help her. She added that the sensory issues she’s battling are “unknown” and there’s “no way to diagnose it, specifically.” Because of that, she has to deal with doctors who don’t believe she’s “constantly in pain.” After listing the things she’s tried to feel better, including hypnosis, she said,

“I’ve been called crazy by my primary care doctor at Kaiser. They told me to see a therapist because of what I’m going through. At this point I just don’t know what to do, I’m in severe pain. …I look crazy as f*ck because I’m in pain 24/7.”

Winter then warned her followers, “Don’t get f*cking veneers and know that something like this can ruin your life.”
