I think I found someone who could be a match. Her name is Nadia Rodriguez and here's why I think she might be Smurfette:
Age 16 at the time of her disappearance (age range matches)
5'4 (two inches taller than Smurfette's estimated height)
Biracial (Smurfette was biracial; Rodriguez is both Asian and Hispanic)
Went missing from Pasadena (Smurfette was found in a part of Houston that's about 32.2 miles and 45 minutes away from Pasadena)
Her hair was dyed red and black (Rodriguez's hair color might have been dark brown? Not sure)
Rodriguez is listed as an Endangered Runaway and was reported missing a little over a month after Smurfette's estimated time of death, but if this wasn't the first time she ran off, maybe her family just assumed she'd come back soon and didn't report her until after she'd been missing for a month or so.
Here's her profile on MissingKids:

Too many similarities not to be considered Smurfette. Not on NamUs, don't know if dentals are available. This picture has her front teeth and gums exposed.
