As an adult, you might be hesitant to start orthodontic treatment, which could be holding you back from experiencing your best smile! The good news is — braces are back in style, and beautiful smiles never go out of style.
In fact, there are a number of famous actors who had braces and wore them proudly during their careers, and now they have show-stopping smiles. (That could be you too!)
Let’s take a look at some top celebrities who underwent braces or Invisalign® treatment as adults.
1. Tom Cruise (Braces)
You’ll remember this one!
Back in 2002, Tom Cruise arrived at the premiere of the ‘Minority Report’ sporting clear ceramic braces. These offered him a more discreet look than metal braces, and he rocked orthodontic treatment at the age of 40. This goes to show that it’s never too late to transform your smile.

2. Gwen Stefani (Braces)
Another celebrity who had braces as an adult was Gwen Stefani!
Back in 1999, the 30-year-old music icon and leader singer of No Doubt opted for traditional metal braces to straighten her teeth. She rocked her traditional look proudly even calling attention to her braces with her flair and bold style.
Gwen’s smile journey acted as the perfect testament of how empowering and transformative braces treatment can be at any age!

3. Kate Middleton (Invisalign)
Did you know that Kate Middleton wore Invisalign to get that perfect smile before her big day? It’s true! As celebrated as the Royal Wedding was back in 2011, Kate no doubt wanted to look her best on her wedding day.
Today she’s known for her “flawless” smile which says a lot about how effective Invisalign for adults can be. Even for someone who was constantly in the public eye, news of her wearing Invisalign wasn’t even noticed or confirmed until years later!
4. Khloe Kardashian (Invisalign)
Here’s a celebrity you may already know had Invisalign treatment as an adult!
Actress, model, and entrepreneur Khloe Kardashian has talked about how Invisalign treatment boosted her confidence at age 28.
5. Billie Eilish (Invisalign)
Another celebrity who openly speaks about her experience with orthodontic treatment is none other than the Grammy-winning pop sensation herself!
While she didn’t get treatment as an adult, Billie Eilish started her Invisalign journey as a teen, around age 17. In a Vanity Fair interview she confirmed that she wore Invisalign for a few months to straighten her teeth. You can even catch her in this video removing her Invisalign aligners to enjoy some hot wings on the First We Feast channel.
6. Eva Longoria (Invisalign)
Desperate Housewives star Eva Longoria proudly sported Invisalign in her 30s! Eva Longoria reported that she started to notice her crowded teeth in photos, so she took charge of her smile and transformed it with Invisalign treatment.
7. Gisele Bündchen (Invisalign)
Did you know that Gisele Bündchen turned to Invisalign as an adult to correct her smile? It’s true! Even supermodels aren’t born with perfect teeth.
As an adult, Gisele noticed her teeth were crooked and decided to take action. With Invisalign, she achieved the straight, beautiful smile that continues to grace magazine covers worldwide. And the best part? Her treatment went unnoticed by the public, proving that Invisalign is a discreet and effective option for adults.
8. Zac Efron (Invisalign)
Zac Efron also chose adult Invisalign treatment to perfect his smile! Despite his already heartthrob status, Zac noticed a gap between his teeth and decided to take control of his smile.
With Invisalign, he was able to achieve the flawless look we see today, all without the appearance of traditional braces. Check out Zac Efron’s before-and-after Invisalign transformation:
