As dentists say: “It’s rare that a person is born with a perfect smile, but not everyone can put up with it.” A child’s correct bite is not only an indicator of social status, a requirement of society, but also the health of the entire body. There is quite a lot of scientific evidence that malocclusion affects the body and can cause some pathologies. Modern dentistry offers a wide selection of tools and treatment methods that allow you to achieve unsurpassed results. And one of them is braces. Despite the fact that this treatment system has existed for a long time, patients still have many questions, and there are even more fables around it. IllnessNews debunks myths about braces and also talks about celebrities who decided to correct their bite.
Bite in a child: normal and pathological
During an examination in the dentist's chair, the doctor is interested not only in the presence of caries and gum inflammation, but also in the correct relationship of teeth in children - occlusion. According to the medical dictionary, occlusion is the position of the teeth when the jaws are closed. It can be correct (physiological) or incorrect (pathological).
There are a huge number of types of malocclusion. And there are even more reasons for this phenomenon.
Fact!
The most common causes of malocclusion in young children are: artificial feeding, dietary errors, heredity, early loss of baby teeth due to complications of caries or injury.
Bite pathologies are not only teeth growing at random, it can also be an incorrect relationship of the jaws and their closure, which significantly affects the appearance of the child and can cause the development of dangerous and serious diseases: diseases of the temporomandibular joint, some postural disorders, respiratory diseases and much more.
Parents should understand that if the dentist has diagnosed a pathology or the prerequisites for its formation and advises starting treatment, it must be started immediately.
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.
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.
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.
Prevalence of bite pathologies
According to statistics, only 20% of people can boast of a correct bite. The rest have various types of deviations: crowded teeth, dystopic teeth, that is, protruding from the dentition, incorrect jaw relationship, lack of tubercular contacts and more pronounced pathologies that even a layman can recognize.
Hemorrhoids kill the patient in 79% of cases
Such a wide spread of malocclusion pathologies has not spared celebrities, among whom there are quite a few patients from whom American dentists have earned a fortune. IllnessNews reveals the secrets...
Emma Watson
Emma Watson has always had a natural charm and charisma - even with braces on her teeth. Between filming Harry Potter, the girl wore braces for only 4 months in 2005.
Subsequently, she said that she was very complex at that moment - her teenage years, problem skin, and even iron braces on her teeth. But in the end, the actress realized that all her fears were far-fetched, and if a person is beautiful inside, some glands on the teeth cannot distort the impression of him.

Even wizards correct their bite
The famous “sorceress” Emma Watson herself, who played Hermione Granger in the Harry Potter films, previously considered herself a real ugly duckling because of her crooked teeth. But it was precisely these shortcomings that allowed her to pass the casting for one of the main roles in her life. It is noteworthy that even in the book itself, JK Rowling described the defects of Hermione's teeth.
Dentists note that Emma simply did not have enough space for full teeth to erupt on her jaw, which is why her smile line suffered. But a short treatment with an orthodontist changed the actress for the better, and her smile today meets all the requirements of Hollywood.
“Hermione” wasn’t the only one to become an orthodontist’s patient. Matthew Lewis, who played the role of Neville Longbottom, underwent a significant transformation between filming. Due to lack of space in the upper jaw and presumably early loss of baby teeth, the actor's lateral incisors of the upper jaw erupted behind the central ones. During long-term treatment, the lateral incisors were literally pulled into the correct place, and cosmetic dentistry methods turned the boy into an attractive man with a charming smile.
Russian stars who wore braces
During the Soviet era, they did not attach such great importance to straight teeth and a dazzling smile. Therefore, many stars in childhood had an incorrect bite, which was corrected in adulthood, when the opportunity arose to install braces. This is especially noticeable if you compare photos taken now with those taken in the 90s and even earlier.
Alla Pugacheva
Everyone remembers the Prima Donna in her early videos and concert footage with her “trademark” cleft between her upper front teeth. But as soon as such an opportunity arose, Alla Borisovna eliminated this flaw in her appearance and installed removable implants. But they didn’t take root, so I had to get braces. To make them less noticeable, she turned to a well-known Western clinic, where they installed an expensive and invisible system from a distance.
Ksenia Sobchak
Because of her uneven large teeth, Ksyusha was often teased as a child, which is why she asked her parents to take her to the doctor and get braces installed. The future socialite was very complex about this, but it was not possible to completely correct the bite. Constant ridicule taught Ksenia to be strong in spirit and not pay attention to offenders. She regularly whitens her teeth to keep them looking neat, and also uses veneers to straighten her smile line.
Vera Brezhneva
One of the brightest members of the “golden cast” of the Via Gra group in childhood was an “ugly duckling” - with glasses and crooked teeth. At school she suffered from ridicule, but everything changed when the girl accidentally got into a casting, after which her fate changed dramatically. But for filming in videos, it was necessary to discreetly solve the problem of correcting the bite, so Vera was fitted with lingual braces, which are not visible. Now her smile is perfect, and the haters are biting their elbows!
Valturi vampires also have problems
Dakota Fanning, who played Jane in the leading romantic vampire epic Twilight, also did not have a perfect smile as a child. But this did not stop her from becoming a successful actress and getting a role.
As a child, Dakota had a so-called “hare smile”, when the front incisors of the upper jaw are larger and pushed forward. The girl had to undergo multi-stage and long-term treatment in the orthodontist's chair, wearing not only braces, but also a very bulky orthodontic apparatus with wide arches. Treatment began at age 13. And, although Dakota’s peers were embarrassed by braces, the young star wore them with pleasure and regarded them as decoration, changing only the color.
Today Dakota is a successful actress who has received many awards. But the main award, the Oscar, is still ahead.
Dakota Faning
She became known as a famous fashionista already in her teens.
That’s why I approached the choice of braces creatively, installing them at the age of 13. Then the actress said that she installed these structures with great pleasure, because she knew that this was another reason to stand out from the crowd. She independently chose the design of her braces, and the result was truly attractive.
Hollywood's Most Expensive Smile - Julia Roberts
A smile from ear to ear - that's about her! The owner of a truly beautiful and mesmerizing smile, Julia Roberts underwent long-term orthodontic treatment - the result was stunning.
Looking at Julia’s childhood photographs, you don’t immediately recognize her as the fatal beauty who always ran away from the crown. A large gap between the front teeth, glasses - an ugly duckling, and that's all.
Braces, correction of the shape and color of teeth using veneers/lumineers, did their job. And Julia’s signature style is her charming smile with perfectly straight teeth.
Miley Cyrus
Miley Cyrus also put a lot of effort and money into her smile. The singer wore braces for a long time, and later even had several teeth removed to straighten her bite.
Realizing that this was not enough, the star had whitening done and then installed veneers. To achieve the perfect result, the famous beauty had to spend thousands of dollars on her teeth, but the result was worth it - now her smile is simply charming!
Cristiano Ronaldo and his success story
A successful football player, an eligible bachelor and just a handsome man, Cristiano Ronaldo is an idol of millions, who also suffered from dental problems. Cristiano is one of the most striking examples of the consequences of premature tooth loss and a small upper jaw, where there is no room for teeth to erupt.
In this photo, even non-professionals will notice the absence of the maxillary lateral incisor on the left. In fact, the tooth is dystopic, that is, it is located outside the dentition.
Cristiano underwent long-term orthodontic treatment. Thanks to this, it was possible to increase the size of the upper jaw, pull the lateral incisor into place, and the methods of restorative dentistry made it possible to create a smile that meets all Hollywood standards.
Popular braces among celebrities
Financially secure people can afford to install any braces to correct their bite, but greater preference is given to inconspicuous designs. Such systems do not spoil the smile and are not conspicuous.
- In first place in popularity are lingual systems. They can only be placed in a certain position of the jaw, so for some patients they turned out to be inaccessible.
- Ceramic locks are in great demand among public figures.
- Recently, stars have been installing sapphire systems.
- If you pay attention to teenagers who later became famous, you can often see metal braces on them.
For kings - royal braces
Even royal blood is not a guarantee of health and proper bite. Prince Harry began his orthodontic treatment at age 15. At the same time, without feeling any embarrassment, he actively attended social events.
As a child, the prince had a fairly large gap between his teeth and his front incisors diverged in different directions. Orthodontic treatment made it possible to remove three teeth and straighten the dentition.
Foreign
Among American and European stars, malocclusion, yellow or crooked teeth are not at all a defect in appearance, but a kind of highlight that helped them become who they are.
- Brigitte Bardot. The world-famous beauty, whom millions of men prayed for, had not previously been distinguished by her attractive appearance. As a child, Bridget had strabismus, which she was able to cure. But the incorrect bite and, as a result, a slightly protruding lower lip remained with the actress forever. However, the skillful Bridget was able to turn her disadvantage into her main advantage, arousing admiration from society.

- Vanessa Paradis. This singer and actress not only did not correct the diastema (a gap between the front teeth), but also made it a fashionable feature.
Interesting! Many girls specially sawed out their gap in order to resemble their fashion idol.
- Kirsten Dunst. The peculiarity of this actress is her protruding fangs, which she is not going to part with. At one of the interviews, Kirsten said that her mother repeatedly tried to tidy up her smile, but Kirsten did not follow the dentist’s recommendations and simply threw away the plates, which she does not regret at all today.

- Johnny Depp. This actor has everything perfect except his smile. Johnny not only did not treat his teeth, but also disfigured them even more. Then he couldn’t part with the image of Jack Sparrow and wore decorative metal teeth, and then even put on gold grills.
- Kate Moss. Another star for whom crooked teeth are not a problem. Kate, thanks to her unconventional appearance and charisma, was able to break into the world of modeling and take one of the leading positions there.
- Amy Winehouse. The late singer had a very terrifying smile. Her teeth were crooked and her bite was wrong. After a while, when Amy began to abuse smoking, alcohol and drugs, her teeth began to fall out. As it turned out later, almost before her death, Amy began to visit the dentist and get her smile in order.
- Keira Knightley. One of the highest paid actresses of our time is not at all embarrassed by her overbite and always smiles broadly at reporters. According to Kira herself, she has never been a fan of the perfectly straight and unnaturally white teeth that American celebrities love so much. The girl visits the dentist regularly, but only to keep her teeth in order.
- Kate Middleton . The Duchess of Cambridge had an overbite and several uneven teeth. This state of affairs did not bother her at all until she married Prince William and became a victim of paparazzi ridicule. Kate couldn’t make up her mind for a long time, but not long ago she finally visited a famous French dentist, who gave her a natural, even smile.
Interesting! In honor of the wedding of William and Kate, a coin was issued in England with an engraving in the shape of the bride's face with a protruding chin due to an incorrect bite.
- Karl Lagerfeld . The late designer, whose clothes all women in the world dreamed of wearing, never smiled. And all because his teeth had long since rotted and fallen out. And those that remained were crooked and yellow.
- Benedict Cumberbatch. The performer of the role of Sherlock and Doctor Strange has always disliked his appearance, and especially his crooked teeth. However, such self-criticism did not affect his acting abilities, which overshadowed all of Benedict's shortcomings.
- Katy Perry . For this singer, crooked teeth have become a real flaw of which she is ashamed. But Katie is in no hurry to correct this defect. She believes that braces will not suit her, and this is not an adult thing. Therefore, Perry tries to hide such a hateful smile behind his antics and constant changes of image.
Interesting: Photos of plus size models
- Madonna. The bright highlight of this singer has always been a small gap between her front teeth, which she recently corrected, giving herself the notorious Hollywood smile.
- Lindsay Lohan. Since childhood, the actress had beautiful and perfectly straight teeth. But after she began to lead a rather wild lifestyle and became addicted to smoking, her smile became yellow-brown. Lindsay periodically removes plaque, but the effect of visiting the dentist is short-lived.
- Ashley Smith. Her gap can be called “royal”, since it is much larger in size than Paradis’s. For the girl, the diastema also became a peculiar feature, which “let her in” to the world of modeling and made her one of the highest paid models.
Angelina Jolie
Angelina Jolie is considered one of the most beautiful women on the starry Olympus. The actress was helped to achieve such success in her field not only by her unconditional talent, but also by her excellent natural abilities, charm, charisma and, of course, her orthodontist. As a teenager, Angelina wore braces, like many of her peers.

Prince Harry
It turns out that even members of the royal family are no strangers to the problems of ordinary mortals. For example, Prince Harry once suffered from severe crooked teeth. A favorite of the fair sex and, perhaps, the brightest representative of his family, at the age of 15 he was very worried about ridicule about the iron braces that adorned his teeth at that time. But now the prince impresses with his brilliant smile and continues to collect the hearts of handsome men from all over the world.
Prince Harry
Gwen Stefani
Distinguished by her unusual character and perfect teeth, Gwen still resorted to the help of orthodontists. At the age of 30, she installed a system with metal locks on both jaws.
There was no need for this, but in this way the actress decided to attract the attention of fans and the press . Simultaneously with the construction, Gwen dyed her hair provocatively pink, shocking the audience.
Unlike many, Gwen has always been attracted to such devices, which is why she chose them to increase her popularity, as an aesthetic element. Such a PR move sharply increased the artist’s rating and excited journalists.
Katy Perry
In one of her conversations with journalists, Katy Perry admitted that she is proud of her slightly crooked teeth in the lower jaw and is not going to correct this “zest.” However, the singer explained that she perfectly understands the importance of wearing braces in the presence of severe bite defects, and therefore respects orthodontic treatment. To support teenagers during the difficult period of wearing braces, the singer starred in the Last Friday Night video and showed the whole world that a girl with iron braces on her teeth can also become the most beautiful and popular in school.

Tom Cruise
The artist is in the first place of the TOP, since there is a big difference between today's smile and what it represented many years ago. During the period of change of bite, Tom Cruise experienced severe separation of the anterior incisors.
In addition to everything, at a young age there was an accident that ended with the breaking off of a significant part of the incisor. At the first filming, the artist appeared with an unaesthetic smile.
Having restored the lost part of the tooth, Tom no longer worked on correcting dental defects. Already married to Penelope Cruz and having a child, he thought about orthodontic correction.
The reason for this was a visit to the dentist to determine the child’s bite. It was then that the orthodontist advised the artist to undergo treatment with braces, which would completely transform his smile.
Heeding the doctor's advice, Cruz installed braces in 2002.
He went through a multi-stage treatment process, during which the diastema between his incisors was first eliminated, and only then they began to restore the aesthetics of his dentition.
Drew Barrymore
Photo: Drew Barrymore before and after bite correction
Acting in films since the age of 7, Drew had uneven teeth. The great popularity that came to the girl after the release of the film “The Extraterrestrial” led her parents to the idea that it was time to prepare her for a big career in cinema.
One of the stages of preparation was treatment with braces, which Drew installed at the age of 11 . She noted separation of teeth and changes in their position. A few years later she was able to boast a perfect smile and worldwide popularity.
The actress has never discussed the topic of her orthodontic correction. But judging by her negative reaction to the temporary fixation of the system for the filming of one of the films, her feelings were not the best.
Danny Glover
American film actor Danny Glover got braces for himself when he was already an adult man. In 2006, he appeared at a photo shoot dedicated to the release of the film “Rehabilitated,” giving everyone present a smile decorated with iron orthodontic brackets. The actor once again proved to everyone around him that braces can be worn not only in childhood.

Nicolas Cage
Famous actor Nicolas Cage decided to undergo orthodontic bite correction in adulthood. The man was not afraid to show off his “iron” smile during one of the ceremonies in Beverly Hills in 2003. First, the actor installed braces on the lower jaw, and after some time he supplemented the corrective apparatus with plates for the upper teeth.
Nicolas Cage
Emma Watson
Emma Watson proudly holds the title of one of the highest paid actresses in the world. Today it’s hard to believe that as a child, little Hermione from “Harry Potter” considered herself an ugly duckling because of problems with her teeth. By the way, it was precisely this feature that gave her a pass to the world of big cinema, when the little girl was casting for the role of a little sorceress. Later, Emma Watson resorted to the help of an orthodontist and got herself braces. Now the actress happily shows off her flawless smile on the red carpet.
Emma Watson
Cindy Crawford
One of the first artists to undergo orthodontic adjustments as an adult is Cindy Crawford. She allowed herself to correct the position of her teeth and bite during active filming .
At that moment, in addition to films, she starred in Pepsi commercials and often performed on the catwalks. Cindy's face with a wide smile in metal braces in 1995 could be seen on television screens and advertising stands.
Many argue that the model’s image did not suffer at all, but became even more interesting.
Carrie Underwood
Only at the age of forty-five did Kerry decide to start correcting her bite. Today, the socialite openly demonstrates her braces, presenting them as decoration .
Having opted for a transparent sapphire model, she did not lose at all. The locks emphasize her aristocracy, and in combination with the jewelry that Kerry wears every time she goes out, they make her look unique.
The star justifies her late decision by saying that as a child she was terribly afraid of any, even painless, dental procedures.
Only now has Underwood been able to consciously cope with her fears.
Lourdes
The twelve-year-old daughter of the famous singer Madonna was always under the watchful eye of her mother, who carefully monitored her health. But this did not help to avoid the development of malocclusion.
The girl had an abnormal position of the anterior teeth. To correct the situation, it was decided to install braces.
Positive results were not long in coming, since 12 years is considered the optimal age for orthodontic correction . Today, Lourdes's bite is of the correct shape and she can safely boast of the beauty of her smile.

Braces as a podium decoration
One of the most successful and sought-after models of our time is Cindy Crawford, the owner of not only an ideal figure, skin and hair, but also teeth. The model took care of her smile as an adult, while climbing the ladder of popularity. The model was not at all embarrassed by her braces and continued to walk the catwalk, appearing on magazine covers and commercials. Moreover, Cindy was not at all shy and smiled widely during filming.
World stars who wore braces
The famous Hollywood smile is the result of the work of dentists, prosthetists and orthodontists. It is the latter that determines how straight the patient’s teeth line will be. And if this is a world celebrity, then you need to try twice as hard not to spoil the image. Journalists know which of the world's celebrities resorted to the services of specialists in installing braces.
Nicolas Cage
This handsome man is so confident that he was not afraid to show off his iron braces in 2003 at one of the ceremonies in Beverly Hills. Nicholas decided to correct his lower bite by installing inexpensive and reliable metal plates that made his smile even more perfect. At the same time, he whitened his teeth; he undergoes this procedure twice a year in one of the clinics in Los Angeles.
Cindy Crawford
When Cindy first showed up to shoot as an aspiring model, her smile was far from perfect. She was advised to wear braces to correct the situation. After a while, the star once again used the services of an orthodontist to straighten her smile line and posted photos on her Instagram page, which pleased her fans, because it proves that stars are people just like everyone else.
It's never too late to take care of your teeth
One of the most striking transformations belongs to Tom Cruise - another proof that you can correct your bite even in adulthood. As a teenager, Tom had a real problem with his bite, which caused a lot of inconvenience for the teenager. Reversed front incisor, “bunny smile” are just minor characteristics and problems.
The actor began his treatment at the age of 40. Moreover, with “brackets” he was filming for a magazine, presenting the film “Minority Report”.
Tom Cruise / Tom Cruise
- All films in the Mission: Impossible, The Last Samurai, and Rain Man franchises.
One of the most popular and highly paid actors in the world suffered from dental defects in childhood and early youth. Photographs from that period, where Tom is shown smiling, clearly show the scale of the disaster: yellow discoloration, malocclusion and crookedness. To cope with the problems, Cruise had to walk for a long time with a lingual arch in his mouth. And at the age of 40, he appeared at the premiere of his film, shining with ceramic braces. In addition, the artist resorted to the whitening procedure several times, and replaced the blackened upper incisor with an implant. But now he is the owner of a snow-white Hollywood smile, which makes the hearts of his fans skip a beat.
"Don't speak" and Gwen Stefani
Gwen Stefani is a shining example of success and love for braces. Dentists say that Gwen has the correct bite and the need for correction was minimal. But the singer, winner of many music awards, wore braces as a decoration, a kind of accessory.
After such a move, Gwen's rating and popularity skyrocketed. According to the singer's representatives, the actress used braces only for decoration, but the changes are noticeable. The singer also underwent surgery to correct her gummy smile.
Prince Harry
Few people will believe it, but even the most august persons are no strangers to the health problems that ordinary people face. So, for example, the son of the legendary Princess Diana, Prince Harry, at one time had very crooked teeth.
The favorite of most English girls and probably the most prominent representative of the royal family, at the age of 15 he was very worried about the ridicule of his peers about the iron braces on his teeth. But now the prince amazes everyone with his snow-white smile and continues to break the hearts of beauties from all over the world.
Zac Efron's charming smile
Today Zac Efron is the owner of the most charming smile, having received the People's Award. As a child, Zach had no significant bite problems. And to non-professionals it seemed that everything was ideal, except, perhaps, for the three spaces between the front teeth.
After orthodontic treatment and minor cosmetic restoration, Zach shines in new roles and is gradually gaining popularity.
Danny Glover / Danny Glover
- "Muslim", "Five Minarets in New York", "Lethal Weapon".
The American actor, director and producer decided to install a special dental arch when he was already over 60. As you can see in the photographs, he did not have any special problems with crooked teeth. Most likely, the reason why it was necessary to install a metal system was an incorrect bite and the functional problems that arose because of it.
Princess Nesmeyana: Victoria Beckham
The most mysterious celebrity of our time who never smiles is Victoria Beckham. The whole world is waiting for her smile, but she adheres to the “Snow Queen” style. As a child, Victoria had a large gap between her front teeth, the crowns of her teeth were small, and she had a large, gummy smile.
Despite the fact that Victoria does not smile in public, you can still find photographs that capture her smile. In addition to orthodontic treatment, the singer and designer corrected her gummy smile. Not without veneers.
Beyoncé
Everyone thought Beyoncé had the perfect smile. Therefore, in 2013, many were surprised when they saw a star with braces. Queen B showed them off, smiling for the camera every chance she got. Of course, the singer’s braces were not simple, but gold. They say that Beyoncé does not have a perfect bite by nature, but she decided to correct it.
The celebrity assured journalists that she saw a social mission in this act. Demonstrating braces on camera, she wanted other hardware owners to feel free to smile.
Perfect in everything Angelina Jolie
Angelina Jolie is the most charming and desirable woman in the world. Among her fans are not only men who appreciated her beauty and attractiveness, but also women who admire her perseverance, femininity and activity.
Meanwhile, as a child, Angelina was forced to visit the dentist and correct her naturally occurring malocclusions. But immediately after treatment, young Angelina entered the family business, after which she was a successful model, tried herself in acting, and today she is successfully engaged in directing.
Dakota Fanning / Dakota Fanning
- “Now Is the Time,” “Dreamer,” “Anger.”
This Hollywood actress knows firsthand what an ugly smile is. As a child, she had to endure a lot of ridicule from her peers because her upper incisors and canines looked like an uneven picket fence: some protruded forward, while others were recessed. Fortunately, the parents of the future celebrity turned to specialists in time, and Dakota became the owner of a braces system. If you look at photos of her teeth then and now, the difference is literally stunning.
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.
Emma Stone
Braces helped the star of the Oscar-winning “La La Land” create the perfect smile. According to her, the actress wore them for quite a long time - it was all due to the bad habit of sucking her thumb. This distorted the girl’s bite despite all the efforts of the dentists.
Even now, as an adult and confident woman, Emma “sins” with this habit. The star herself says that thumb sucking helps her calm down and relax after a hard day.
But dentists warn the star that this strange and cute habit can not only contribute to the early appearance of nasolabial folds, but also damage the bite.
Cindy Crawford
Today, few people remember, but back in 1995, the famous supermodel Cindy Crawford was not afraid to show off her smile with braces on her teeth during her next appearance on the catwalk. And a little later, she starred in a commercial for Pepsi, where she also smartly flaunted her “iron” smile. Perhaps it was Cindy who became one of the key figures who made braces extremely popular in her time.
