Hello bunker-ga,  


Here are the results of my research for celebrities that wear or have
worn braces.


Tom Cruise, Isaac Hanson, Jennifer Elise Cox, one of the stars of the
Brady Bunch, and Canadian rock star EMJAY, have had braces within the
last year. Gwen Stephani from the band no doubt wears braces
occasionally because the make her feel young.

the devices.”

There is very little information about celebrities that have used or
are using Invisalign braces:


From KDH News:

“Tom Cruise had his teeth straightened using Invisalign® braces, which
are invisible plastic trays.”

(..) 

“I think Oprah Winfrey is wearing them right now,” said Killeen
orthodontist James “Andy” Barron.

Oprah:

“Recently, you may have seen on T.V. or read in the newspaper that
Oprah has started treatment with Invisalign. So look for her and see
if you can notice any difference.”

“As for braces, try the InvisAlign. Tom Cruise wore them throughout
the whole filming of Minority Report. I think Kristen Kruek wears
them, but not sure.”
