Many of us didn\u2019t naturally develop perfectly aligned smiles like we hoped. Sometimes, to achieve desired results, orthodontic intervention is necessary. If you are going to begin orthodontic treatment<\/a> soon, you aren\u2019t alone. Approximately 80% of American teens get braces and 27% of American and Canadian orthodontic patients are adults. Even some well-known celebrities straighten their smiles with braces. Here are just some of them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Angelina Jolie<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Even before she is in the public eye, Angelina Jolie could be spotted on the red carpet with her father as a teenager. Back then, she was undergoing orthodontic work to achieve straighter teeth. She continues to show off her beautiful, aligned smile today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Justin Bieber<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

When he was a teenager, Justin Bieber straightened his smile with Invisalign. Invisalign uses a series of clear aligners that slowly shift the teeth into their rightful locations. One of their many benefits is that they are very discreet, so it\u2019s unlikely that others will notice them. This way, Bieber could be in the spotlight without metal brackets and wires.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tom Cruise<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It isn\u2019t just teens that get braces. When he was nearly 40 years old, Tom Cruise began his orthodontic journey. He opted for ceramic braces which are color-matched to the teeth. After making enough progress, he moved onto Invisalign to complete his orthodontic transformation. It\u2019s never too late to start working toward your smile goals!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Miley Cyrus<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Just like many other teenagers, Miley Cyrus needed orthodontic work when she was filming Hannah Montana. However, instead of getting traditional braces, she opted for lingual braces. This is when the brackets and wires are placed on the back of the teeth for a more discreet appearance. After a few years, she had a beautifully straight smile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cristiano Ronaldo<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

As Ronaldo began to gain fame, he decided that it was time to address his dental concerns. He underwent several dental procedures, including beginning his journey with braces. Today, he shows off a beautifully straight smile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gwen Stefani<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Gwen Stefani had wanted braces since she was a kid to straighten her teeth. However, her family was unable to afford orthodontic work during her childhood. When she turned 30, Gwen began her orthodontic treatment with traditional braces, correcting her misalignment and leaving her with a healthy smile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Misalignment certainly doesn\u2019t discriminate. By working with your orthodontist, you can put together a treatment plan to straighten your smile and meet your orthodontic needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
