Do you need perfectly straight teeth to be an actor?

I never got braces and my teeth aren't perfectly straight. I don't have huge gaps or anything in my mouth, but like 4 of my teeth in my mouth aren't super straight. I was always told you need perfect teeth (and really white) teeth to be an actor. Is this true?

For a role I need my actor to smoke an old timey tobacco pipe, I need a plume of smoke. I intend to use ground up herbal cigarettes (just take off the packaging) Could this still pose a health risk? They are not a smoker.
