They don't have their own smile! Stars who wore braces and corrected their bite. Expert opinion from the show “Reloaded”

These stars took care of their teeth in time, and now they have a perfect smile. We’ll figure out who did what together with the dentist, expert of the “Reboot” show on TNT, Ruslan Sabanov.

Let’s clarify right away that braces are special brackets for correcting the position of teeth in case of malocclusion. They are different and differ in the method of fastening, installation location and the materials from which they are made. For example, there are metal (the most popular today), sapphire (the most beautiful), ceramic (they are invisible on the teeth), lingual (they are often called “invisible”, since they are invisible and are installed on the inside of the teeth).

Veneers are special plates (a kind of “onlays”) that allow you to create an ideal smile, correct the curvature and shape of teeth, close the gaps between teeth and improve their color.

Tom Cruise

The actor had a very difficult case. “Tom clearly underwent complex orthodontic treatment, had surgery on his gums, and wore braces,” emphasizes dentist Ruslan Sabanov. – And then, using implants, crowns and veneers, I changed the size, shape and color of my teeth. And even now Tom’s smile cannot be called ideal, since the center line is shifted to the left, and therefore the teeth are not completely straight.”

What materials do adults prefer braces from?

An adult tries to choose braces that will not draw attention to the teeth. Most patients in orthodontic departments wish to have lingual systems installed. They are attached to the inner surface of the teeth from the tongue side and are practically invisible to others. However, such designs have disadvantages. Internal braces affect speech and increase the duration of orthodontic treatment.

When choosing vestibular braces (external), adult patients prefer the following materials:

  • Plastic. The most budget option for people with braces. In the recent past, they were the most aesthetic way to correct a bite. The color of the plastic can be matched to the shade of the tooth enamel, which will make the linings unnoticeable.

  • Ceramics. Fragile plastic has been replaced by more durable ceramics. Ceramic braces are also individually matched to the color of the tooth. They are smaller in size, which makes them more aesthetically pleasing.

  • Sapphire. Orthodontic structures made of sapphire are considered the most aesthetic. They are made from material grown under artificial conditions. You can call sapphire braces a decoration for your teeth, since visually they resemble precious stones. Such castles shimmer and shine in the sun.

On a note!

This option is not suitable for all people with braces. Sapphire systems are recommended for use on snow-white teeth. In patients with yellowish enamel, they will highlight the deficiency.

Madonna

Now Madonna can easily afford to wear gold dental jewelry, because she has excellent teeth. Although before her smile was far from ideal. But at the same time, the singer never appeared in public with braces. “Most likely, she wore internal (lingual) braces, which helped her correct her bite and slightly correct the gap between her teeth,” emphasizes dentist Ruslan Sabanov.

Can braces look good?

If you look at the photos of girls with braces, you can see completely different types of orthodontic devices. Some are striking and attract the attention of others to their teeth. Others remain almost invisible. Still others make your smile more attractive.

Beautiful girls who are about to wear braces are especially worried about their smile. They turn to the dentist with a request to choose an aesthetic design with miniature onlays for the teeth so that the treatment does not spoil the appearance. Modern manufacturers of bracket systems make beautiful brackets, but it is worth remembering that beauty is an uncertain concept. It's different for everyone.

Demmy Moor

It is quite possible that it was thanks to Demi’s new smile that she once managed to win the heart of Ashton Kutcher. “The actress’s missing teeth on the sides were clearly replaced with a bridge, which was later replaced with implants,” says dentist Ruslan Sabanov.

Celebrities who wore braces

Beautiful braces for children

Many teenagers with braces on their teeth are embarrassed about their appearance. Girls and young women are especially worried. You can also choose beautiful braces for children, but not all teenagers prefer aesthetic designs made of plastic or ceramics.

For girls, metal braces with multi-colored ligatures will be beautiful. Such designs are the most budget-friendly, and the presence of ligatures allows you to periodically change the color of the overlays. A girl with braces of different colors looks unusual, and individuality is the main desire of teenagers.

Plastic braces will look aesthetically pleasing on girls. If desired, such structures can be painted in different colors and even have patterns applied to them.

If girls and boys do not have any complexes or embarrassments about wearing plates on their teeth, they can use budget metal non-ligature structures. They have a lot of advantages:

  • they are almost impossible to break;
  • metal braces correct the bite faster;
  • the absence of ligatures allows you to reduce the number of visits to the dentist.

Contraindications

Elimination of malocclusions using braces is in some cases impossible or very limited.

All contraindications to the installation of braces systems can be divided into two groups – absolute and relative.

Absolute:

  • Absence of a large number of teeth.
  • Tuberculosis.
  • HIV and some sexually transmitted diseases.
  • Neuropsychiatric diseases (paranoia, psychosis, schizophrenia, dementia, alcoholism, etc.).
  • Diabetes mellitus, serious disorders of the pituitary gland and adrenal glands.
  • Pathologies of the immune system.
  • Bone diseases associated with non-healing tissue.
  • Some diseases of the blood, immune and cardiovascular systems, oncology.

Temporary reasons for refusing to install braces that need to be eliminated or treated.

Relative:

  • Poor oral hygiene.
  • Exacerbations of periodontitis and periodontal disease.
  • Bruxism.
  • Diseases of the temporomandibular joint.
  • Refusal of patients from treatment.
  • Metal implants in the mouth.
  • Tumors in the oral cavity.
  • Allergy to the material from which the orthodontic appliance is made.

Malocclusion - “highlight”

Despite the high demands of modern society on appearance, there are a number of stars who bypassed the dentist's office and decided to remain the way nature created them.

Steve Buscemi, a brilliant actor who plays negative characters best, himself noted that his appearance was simply created for such roles. Indeed, his natural abilities allow him to create the most striking roles of inveterate villains and cunning people without additional makeup.

Amy Winehouse, who died tragically in 2011, is recognized not only by music critics, but also by a large number of fans. Amy was loved for her vocal talent and sincerity. And, although she could afford the services of the best dentist, she chose not to correct her bite and teeth, remaining the way nature created her.

An incorrect bite is not only a cosmetic defect, but also a threat to the health of children. The connection between bite pathologies and incorrect posture, as well as changes in facial shape, has been proven. Today, orthodontists are working on a more detailed understanding of the connection between malocclusion pathologies and diseases of the respiratory system.

There is no need to be afraid of the diagnosis. Currently, modern dentistry is capable of much: treatment time is significantly reduced, new methods appear. Significant transformations are best demonstrated by celebrities, who are also affected by this problem.

How to install?

Installing a bracket system is a complex and responsible process that requires great precision and certain preparation. It occurs in several stages after examination of the patient’s dental system and mandatory sanitation of the patient’s oral cavity.

  1. Taking impressions of the lower and upper jaw to make a plaster model, with the help of which a detailed treatment plan will be drawn up.
  2. Order and manufacture the system according to plan.
  3. Preparing the surface of the teeth: cleaning, polishing, drying.
  4. Attaching braces to each tooth using special glue, maintaining a precisely adjusted location.
  5. Installation and activation of the arc.

If it is necessary to carry out installation on both jaws, then first of all the fastening is carried out on the upper jaw, and then on the lower jaw.

Braces: a necessary accessory for the most daring

Movie stars are role models, idols that billions of people around the world strive to be like. In their case, there is no question of yellow teeth, visible fillings, holes, malocclusion or uneven dentition. After all, one of the hallmarks of celebrities is a perfect smile. But, according to statistics, more than 90% of people in the world suffer from crooked teeth. And even the richest and most famous residents of the Hollywood hills are not immune to the problems of the maxillofacial apparatus. They once had yellow teeth, tooth decay, uneven and crooked teeth, and malocclusion. People are not born with a perfect smile; for the sake of such an outstanding result that we see on TV screens, we have to spend more than one hour in the dental chair. Crooked teeth threaten their owner with a disease such as periodontitis, and malocclusion often causes pathology of the temporomandibular joint. Orthodontic treatment is also necessary before prosthetics. After all, it is very difficult to reproduce an individual natural “wrong” bite. To correct the position of the teeth, constant exposure is required for quite a long time. Optimal correction is provided by various braces. People with braces were once made fun of in schools and were often ridiculed in films. But now many stars, even in adulthood, flaunt on the red carpet with “iron” on their teeth. Chelsea Clinton set an example for US high society. In 1997, she flew to Washington for the inauguration of her father, Bill Clinton. The daughter of the future president posed for photo reporters, flashing a charming American smile and... braces. In 1999, the paparazzi “noticed” braces on Prince Harry’s teeth. Then the heir to the British throne was only 15. Today you can see the result of his treatment in gossip columns. The legendary Cher underwent orthodontic treatment in 1988. The diva showed off her new “decoration” to the readers of People magazine. The issue with the singer in braces on the cover was literally swept off the shelves. Britney Spears, famous for her shocking behavior, confessed her love for braces: “I loved wearing braces and I think it’s cool.” Her eternal rival Christina Aguilera also achieved her perfect smile with the help of an orthodontist. One of the most sought-after supermodels, Cindy Crawford, owes her gorgeous smile to her dentist. By the way, braces did not hinder her career at all: she continued to demonstrate outfits from leading fashion designers on the catwalk and act in advertising without removing the braces.

In 2002, Tom Cruise, who had just turned 40 at the time, decided to install ceramic braces. Later, the blockbuster hero admitted that all his life he was embarrassed by his smile. Nicolas Cage chose the simplest metal braces, which he even wore at special ceremonies. Singer and fashion designer Gwen Stefani was the first to decide to wear braces as a fashion accessory. At the age of 25, she decided to radically change her image, turning from a glamorous blonde into a rebel with bright pink hair and iron braces on perfectly straight teeth. Photo reporters liked this image, but the star herself got bored quite quickly.

The list of stars who have achieved a perfect smile with the help of undeniably talented orthodontists (we see the results of their excellent work on all the red carpets of the world) can be continued indefinitely. Fortunately, today everyone can achieve the perfect smile thanks to advances in orthodontics and dentistry in general. A huge selection of brace systems allows you to make treatment of the maxillofacial apparatus as comfortable as possible from both a physiological and aesthetic point of view. The most shy clients of dental clinics can be offered invisible braces (ceramic, enamel-colored, lingual, sapphire). For those who, on the contrary, want to attract everyone's attention, gold, multi-colored and even luminous braces are suitable. It all depends solely on the taste preferences of the orthodontist patient. We can safely say that nowadays the stereotype that braces are not fashionable is outdated. Braces are a beautiful way to achieve a perfect smile.

Pros and cons of braces

Despite the fact that braces are a very popular system for correcting malocclusion and have a large number of advantages, they are not without some negative aspects.

Advantages:

  • Possibility of complete correction of almost all types of malocclusion and dental curvature.
  • With the help of special programs, the final treatment option can be predicted.
  • Highly aesthetic braces systems have been developed that are practically invisible on the surface of the teeth and give a smile a special charm.
  • Braces are stationary devices, so patients do not need to adjust them themselves.
  • The procedure for installing and removing braces is absolutely painless for patients.

Minuses:

  • There is an adaptation period during which problems with eating and speaking may occur.
  • When wearing braces, oral hygiene becomes more difficult. Patients are forced to use additional dental care products (about care products in the article: How to care for braces).
  • During the entire treatment period, there are restrictions on eating certain foods and smoking.
  • The metal parts of braces can injure the delicate mucous membrane of the cheeks and lips. In case of wearing lingual systems, traumatization of the tongue is possible.
  • The need for regular visits to the orthodontist to monitor the progress of treatment and adjust the system.
  • After removing braces, teeth often require therapeutic measures aimed at eliminating the manifestations of caries.
  • To prevent teeth from becoming crooked again after braces are removed, it is necessary to wear special retainers or mouthguards.
  • Complete restoration of the dentition in just 4 days!

Purpose

Indications for installing braces systems are numerous. These include correcting malocclusion and straightening teeth.

Occlusion is the arrangement of the upper and lower teeth when they are completely closed.

With a correct bite, the upper canines and incisors slightly obscure the lower ones, the chewing surfaces of the premolars touch and the lower molars are closer to the inside of the mouth.

In most cases of a different location, wearing braces is indicated.

  • Crossbite , when the upper and lower rows of teeth do not sit exactly on top of each other. This occurs due to underdevelopment of one of the jaws, which moves to the side.
  • Deep bite , in which the upper teeth in the front part overlap the lower teeth too much - by more than half.
  • Mesial bite with protruding lower jaw. In this case, braces can be either the only or an auxiliary means of treatment.
  • Open bite – non-closing of the teeth in the anterior or lateral areas. Here, braces are also used as one of the stages of treatment.
  • Distal bite is an incorrect position of the jaws, the upper jaw protrudes forward in relation to the lower jaw.
  • Facial asymmetry caused by underdevelopment or excessive growth of one of the jaws.
  • Torsion of teeth - rotation around its axis.
  • Dystopia is an incorrect position (out of row) and curvature of teeth (one or more).
  • Diastema and trema – too large a distance (presence of gaps) between the teeth.
