London -- The star of hit U.S. television series Ugly Betty has had her smile insured for $10-million (U.S.) by Lloyd's.

Lloyd's said the policy for America Ferrara - who plays dorky, braces-wearing assistant Betty Suarez in the show - was bought by home teeth-whitening product Aquafresh White Trays as part of a promotion to raise money for U.S. charity Smiles for Success.

"It's very flattering to have my smile insured for $10-million, it's not something that I ever imagined happening," Ferrara, 23, said on the Lloyd's website.

Lloyd's America president Wendy Baker said the group has centuries of experience devising policies for unique risks, and has insured the fingers of guitarist Keith Richards and the legs of Marlene Dietrich.
