Swordfish (2001)

Corrected entry: Where does John Travolta acquire a corpse that looks just like him AND has matching dental records without resorting to altering an existing corpse (by plastic surgery) so flawlessly that it wouldn't be detected by an autopsy to fool the authorities into thinking he died in the helicopter crash?

Correction: You're assuming that the dental records were actually his - it seems more likely that Shear simply substituted medical information for the dead man in place of his own. As far as finding a similar corpse, it seems reasonable that a concentrated search would turn up a lookalike - any subtle differences in appearance would be erased by the damage done in the helicopter crash.
