Many people are still not happy with their appearance, and make minor cosmetic changes to tweak their hair, skin, body and smile.

Some people, no matter how happy they may appear, may not be content with their smile. If you look through magazines you will see regular reference to the best celebrity smile makeovers, showing amazing cosmetic dental work. While many celebrities have had extensive dental work, many appearing in those lists have only had minor changes made to their teeth.

The important thing to remember is that a good dentist will know what will work: a small change can make a BIG difference.

Our dental professionals here at Seapoint Clinic have taken a look at some well-known celebs to see what kind of work may have improved their smiles!

One of the best examples of a celebrity smile makeover is Tom Cruise. His teeth weren’t the type of teeth one of the biggest movie stars wouldbe seen to have, even though he always had a huge female fan base from the get-go! There is evidence he had significant work done during the eighties but this has never been entirely confirmed by his PR. Tom suffered from overcrowding and his teeth were misaligned. Some basic cleaning procedures, a few veneers and a few months of invisible braces ensure a now bright happy and confident smile. If you suffer from overcrowding, 6 month braces are a fantastic and time-effective option that you should consider to improve your smile.

Zac Efron is another celeb who has had some wonderful results with cosmetic dentistry. As a teenager he had a gap between his two eye teeth, now they are perfectly aligned. He had Invisible braces which helped to pull his teeth together and give him a more ‘adult’ smile. Tooth whitening was also used to help brighten up Zac’s new smile.

Victoria Beckham had a fantastic celebrity smile makeover. Her teeth were crooked and she had a gap at the front of her teeth. Victoria looks like she has had some porcelain veneers on her front smile line and some tooth whitening sessions to brighten up her smile.

George Clooney has always been a big of a hit with the ladies but his smile was far from perfect many moons ago! A chronic teeth grinding habit left George with tiny stubs for teeth. Porcelain veneers were used to lengthen the teeth that Clooney had ground down and gumlasering was carried out to expose more of his natural teeth.

Cheryl Cole had quite crooked teeth and she had pointed incisors that were quite fang-like. Her teeth were straightened and the ‘fangs’ were reshaped to give her a more beautiful smile. Whitening was also carried out on her stained teeth and she now has some dazzling white porcelain veneers to give her that perfect Hollywood smile.

For all of the non-celebs among us, teeth cleaning and whitening can dramatically change your smile! Techniques like cosmetic bonding and 6 month braces can really change your whole looks and the costs are a lot lower than you would expect nowadays as cosmetic dentistry is becoming more and more common. Talking to a good dentist will see you find the most effective way of getting that perfect smile you are looking for!
