Not everyone is lucky enough to have a naturally beautiful smile, which is also true for celebrities. Our teenage years can be the most uncertain time of our lives, and wearing braces only adds to irrational levels of self-consciousness. That being said, those who are lucky enough to receive treatment to straighten their teeth at a young age will reap the benefits of straight teeth from thereon. Some of the biggest stars around had to wear braces in their youth, and some others had their teeth straightened much later in life. Click through this gallery to see some of the world’s biggest stars who once wore braces.
