Do Celebrities Wear Braces?
Orthodontic braces can offer many benefits, including a prettier and healthier smile. And they aren’t just for kids and teens. One in five orthodontic patients today is an adult, and braces aren’t just relegated to the everyday people – even celebrities understand the importance of orthodontic treatment.
“Braces offer important benefits, beyond just the obvious cosmetic reasons,” says Dr. Michael Stosich. “A straighter smile means a healthier smile, and that’s something even celebrities can get on board with.”
Here’s a list of celebrities who have worn braces over the years.

“Braces are for everyone – the famous and the not-yet famous, the young and the young at heart,” says Dr. Stosich. “There are so many options available today. Orthodontic treatment is more discrete, efficient and effective than ever before.”
