Details On Charges Against Veneer Specialist
On Thursday (Oct. 3), police raided Atlanta’s “A List Smiles” over claims that Brandon Dillard allegedly provided illegal veneer services without a dental license.
WSB-TV reports that Fulton County District attorneys assert that Brandon Dillard has consistently offered veneer services for many years.
“Brandon Dillard is not a dentist. He’s never been a dentist. And as much as he may want to play one on Instagram, he is not one,” Fulton County Deputy District Attorney Will Wooten said.
Brandon Dillard faces eight felony charges, including practicing dentistry and medicine without a license and theft by deception, per WSB-TV.
Dillard, known for working with public figures like Tia Kemp, Lyrica Anderson, and ‘Baddies West’ star Rollie, has reportedly been operating since 2021.
Fulton County DA Fani Willis described “A List Smiles” as appearing legitimate but said the operation is far from legal.
“If you went to this and you thought it was a dental office and you looked at the equipment, it appears to be legitimate. But that’s what the best fraudsters do, is they do everything they can to make themselves look legitimate. And in this case, this is an illegitimate operation. The problem is the consequences are to one’s health,” Fulton County DA Willis said.

More Info About Dillard’s Alleged Illegal Practice
Authorities are also accusing Dillard of allegedly conducting training sessions nationwide on veneers, charging over $6,000 for participants to become “Veneer Specialists.”
However, the DA’s office emphasizes that Georgia does not recognize a “Veneer Specialist” or “Veneer Technician” certification.
DA Willis expressed her intention to prosecute individuals who paid for training related to this illegal activity.
“Many, many people paid this defendant to receive training on how to do this illegal conduct. I am not interested in prosecuting those persons. I am interested in them stopping this work and finding out who they are because they are also victims,” Willis stated.
However, per WSB-TV, DA Willis noted that Dillard’s trainees who continue practicing without a license will also face charges.
