The future of Roberto Firmino has not yet been decided. The only clear thing is that the player will not continue in Liverpool once his contract ends this season. In the Anfield team, he will be remembered for his goals, for his assists and the titles he helped to achieve, but without a doubt they will also remember him for his white teeth.

The person chosen by the Brazilian to take care of his iconic smile was the dentist Robbie Hughes after a recommendation from his compatriots Lucas Leiva and Philippe Coutinho, according to what the orthodontist told the British outlet The Athletic.

Hughes recounted that the striker came with a request that was as specific as it was difficult to achieve: “Bobby (Firmino) was looking for a smile makeover, and we opted to make him some porcelain veneers. He wanted very white teeth, a degree that was not on the table, so we created a super white color for him,” said the striker’s personal dentist.

Having Firmino as his client helped Hughes because several of his teammates started doing treatments. Even manager Jürgen Klopp began to be treated in the same office. But the big shock was when several fans of the club and fans of the Brazilian showed up asking for the same look for their teeth: “Not many have asked for this before, but since Bobby did it, over the years, my patients have come and they have asked for ‘Bobby’s dazzling ones’,” the dentist joked.
