LeAnn Rimes Sues Dentist: You Effed Up My Career! >>Hollywood

LeAnn Rimes is suing her dentist, claiming Dr. Duane C. McKay messed up work on her mouth so badly that it's impacting the country singer's career.

Some of the work included upper front veneers and crowns that the dentist promised would address her TMJ-related pain as well as improve her appearance.

Rimes claims the dentist caused tremendous pain and bleeding. In October, she tweeted, "I feel like I got hit in my right side of my face with a baseball bat."

Rimes says she's had to undergo nine root canals and bone grafting since.

She's also had a temporary bridge and needed physical therapy as well.

Rimes says in the suit she will have a "permanent cosmetic deficiency."

The wife of Eddie Cibrian says it's impeding her ability to perform.

In her lawsuit, LeAnn is seeking damages for physical, emotional and psychiatric injuries. She also wants money for loss of past and future earnings.
