Over the last few decades, cosmetic dentistry has exploded in popularity. Millions of people across the country look intogetting treatments to enhance their smiles and to maintain excellent oral health. However, it’s not just the average Joe who is looking into smile makeovers.
Our favorite celebrities go down this route too, and theyundergo a variety of procedures to achieve the perfect smile. Rightly or wrongly, the celebrity industry is governed by the way you look, which means it makes sense why so many notable figures opt for cosmetic dentistry treatments. Here are some of the biggest stars on the planet who have had cosmetic dentistry.
Niall Horan
Niall Horan is most famous for being a part of the heartthrob boyband ‘One Direction’. When launching onto the market in 2010, Horan’s teeth weren’t exactly dazzling. The star wore invisible braces for over 15 months during his time in the boyband. Once he got his braces taken off in 2013, it became a major news story, especially with his millions of fans across the world eagerly anticipating the results.
Horan opted for clear braces, which left him with a perfectly white, straight smile. You can follow in the footsteps of Horanby wearing night time clear aligners. This article by ALIGNERCO discusses clear braces vs. metal braces, so you can see the benefits. The company has extensive experience in providing teeth straightening services for thousands of customers, including celebrities!
Simon Cowell
Entrepreneur, television producer, recording executive, and TV personality are just a few ways to describe Simon Cowell. The 62-year-old first burst onto the scene in 1980, most notably judging the international talent competition ‘The X Factor’. Cowell is certainly no stranger to cosmetic dentistry. He has been very open and honest about undergoing such procedures.
In particular, Cowell has had veneers and teeth whitening. The star even publicly thanked his dentist on live TV at the National Television Awards as part of his acceptance speech! If that’s not gratitude, we don’t know what is.
Beyonce
Beyonce is an American singer, actress, and songwriter who doesn’t need any introduction. The star is primarily known by her first name! As a huge influencer of modern music and an impressive growing music empire, you may not be aware that the Single Ladies hitmaker has undergone cosmetic dentistry in the past.
In 2011, Beyonce stepped out sporting a pair of braces. Even though the stars‘ teeth were in excellent shape, Beyonce decided to enhance them with a full mouth of metal brackets. One of the reasons for doing this was to show millions of her adoring teenage fans that it’s okay to wear braces!
Jennifer Garner
Jennifer Garner is an American actress who has won a string of awards, including a Golden Globe and a Screen Actors Guild Award. Away from all the films and starry lights, Garner is another high-profile figure who has undergone a subtle smile makeover, all with the help of veneers.
Garner’s gnashers are beautifully designed, which cover all front views of her mouth. It’s likely the star has undergone gum contouring surgery too. This procedure is simple to perform and is conducted during the preparation stages of porcelain veneers.
Megan Fox
Megan Fox is an American actress most known for her roles in action movies, including Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and the Transformers. Regarded by many as one of the most beautiful women in the world, Fox is another star who has opted for cosmetic dentistry in the past. While you may not have thought Fox needed any work doing, she decided on porcelain veneers to elevate her smile.
When you’re next hitting the movie theater and seeing Megan Fox on the big screen, take a look at how impressive her teeth look now. If you want to follow in her footsteps and get porcelain veneers, make sure you find a reputable cosmetic dentist with plenty of experience in the field.
Hilary Duff
If you grew up in the late 90s/early 00s, you can’t have escaped Hilary Duff. This American actress dominated our televisions screens, especially the Disney Channel with her popular series Lizzie McGuire. Just like with all the stars listed, Duff has had a teeth makeover too over the years. In the past, the actress had a yellowish tinge on her teeth, which led her to the decision to have a smile makeover.
According to People magazine, the actress opted for porcelain veneers due to chipping her front teeth on microphones repeatedly! I think we can all agree that Duff’s teeth look better than ever before, and it proves you don’t need to be a Hollywood A-lister to benefit from a smile makeover.
Jim Carrey
Whether it’s The Mask, Me, Myself & Irene, or How the Grinch Stole Christmas, it’s safe to say Jim Carrey has been in his fair share of movies. As one of the most talented actors to have ever lived, Carrey’s funny wit and exceptional humor may mean you never even noticed his teeth! However, the star did undergo a smile makeover by choosing porcelain veneers.
Carrey’s veneers look very natural too. The actor had a split tooth back in the day, which he said was down to a fight in elementary school. Carrey has come a long way since this, and after undergoing a smile transformation, Carrey has gone from strength to strength in his acting career.
George Clooney
The actor that is George Clooney has stolen the hearts of millions of women (and men!) all over the world. While Clooney has always had a knockout smile, his reasons for a smile makeover were not purely down to cosmetic reasons. Instead, Clooney opted for getting his teeth done because of his habit of constantly grinding his teeth!
After Clooney’s Facts of Life days, the star opted for a full set of veneers. Clooney settled on a white shade that has takenyears off his appearance. Also, it’s estimated the actor has undergone over $30,000 worth of cosmetic dentistry! Fear not, however, you won’t have to shell out such a fortune yourself on getting your teeth fixed.
Celine Dion
Celine Dion is a French-Canadian pop star, most known for her passionate showmanship and vocal prowess. Selling an eyewatering 200-250 million records across the globe, the star is known as one of the planet’s biggest selling music artists.Believe it or not, Celine Dion’s pearly whites haven’t always been in place.
It’s suggested Dion has had porcelain crowns rather than veneers. The star now has a pearly white smile that she loves showing off!
Tom Cruise
Finally, we can’t speak about celebrities who have had cosmetic dental work without mentioning Tom Cruise. You’ll have all seen the photos of Cruise back in the day, sporting a rather unsightly smile.
Cruise’s teeth were misaligned and discolored. Thankfully, as the star hit the big time, he corrected his teeth, which included teeth straightening and whitening. Now, Cruise has a fantastic set of shiny, new porcelain veneers.
Whether they’ve been whitened, replaced, veneered, or straightened, you’ll have a hard job finding an A-lister who hasn’t had some kind of work done to their teeth. While some celebrities pick subtle treatments with minor dental treatments, others make vast changes that transform the look of their face (for better or worse!).
If you’re considering cosmetic dentistry treatment, ensure you find a reputable clinic that can carry out the procedure. This will make sure you get the results you want and be left with the smile you’ve always envisaged.
