Celebrities and Cosmetic Dentistry

It should come as no surprise that Hollywood’s elite, known to be quite the fans of cosmetic surgery, also turn to cosmetic dentistry for their dental needs. Constantly in the spotlight and being photographed, their smiles need to be flawless. Here are some of the more common methods used by today’s celebrities.
Total Makeover
Celebrities such as Tom Cruise, Ben Affleck and Victoria Beckham have spent a pretty penny receiving a combination of procedures such as straightening, crowns, veneers and whitening..
Veneers
Porcelain veneers are known to solve a variety of dental problems – they can add length to teeth, fix gaps, hide stains and make teeth appear straighter. Catherine Zeta-Jones, Hilary Duff and Demi Moore are just a few names that have turned to veneers for their dental treatment.
Surgery and Tooth Lengthening
Teeth are often too small proportionally, so celebrities lengthen their teeth to be more physically appealing. Although not proven, George Clooney is believed to have had a crown lengthening procedure done, using lasers to move the gum line up. Kate Beckinsale and Miley Cyrus are also believed to have had tooth lengthening procedures.
Straightening and Whitening
With the camera always keeping its watch on their lives, celebrities need to keep teeth in tip-top shape. Zac Efron and Oprah Winfrey are two celebrities who used Invisalign to straighten teeth, while others such as Nic Cage opted for traditional metal braces. Most celebrities have probably had their teeth bleached or whitened at some point – it is the most common and least expensive cosmetic dentistry procedures.
