It's a new year with a new smile for the Florida rap star.

Lil Pump just got a $25,000 mouth makeover and a new set of pearly white teeth. Well, not new per se, but before and after pics that TMZ obtained show that they might as well be. Danielle Noguera, CEO of 5 Star Smiles, told TMZ Hip Hop that Pump came in early last year to get a fresh set of porcelain veneers. Moreover, the Florida rapper's new set could last him 30 years. According to their report, he paid $25,000 in his home city of Miami for the new smile. What's more is that dentists apparently sought the 22-year-old's clientele for quite a while.

However, he ended up choosing 5 Star Smiles given their track record. For example, they also assisted Lil Meech, Erica Mena, and the Clermont twins in the past, just to name a few. Still, he won't pump the brakes there. Reportedly, he also recently ordered a new pair of grills, which are currently in production. It seems the "Esketit" rapper took the new year as a chance to work on himself or try new things. Recently, he posted a picture of his weight loss, and many congratulated him for losing the "lean gut." Between his time in the gym and his time in the dentist's office, Pump's almost becoming a new man.

"Looking good feeling better," he captioned his comparison picture. "Working out is my new addiction should I go keep going?" Of course, the young artist causes headlines for a variety of wild reasons. For example, his makeover stories and new looks are easy to pull off with his eccentricity. However, another big part of Pump lore is his interactions with fans, which recently manifested at a sneaker convention. When he attended the 2023 Sneaker Con at Fort Lauderdale during January, he gifted a fan his sneakers right off his feet.

“You know, I’m in the line,” the fan explained in a video after the interaction. “I’m like ‘Yo, Lil Pump, let me get your shoes, let me buy them off you.’ You know what he said? He said ‘I got you,’ gave me them for free, signed them. ‘February 1st,’ you already know. So if you want this, one grand, one grand,” and he tried to sell the shoes, whether jokingly or not. Regardless of whether he got finessed that time, log back into HNHH for the latest stories on Lil Pump.
