At the end of the 90s, Cindy Crawford wore braces and even managed to take part in a Pepsi commercial with them. At the time, people were shocked. But now, braces are kind of trendy. However, even today, only the bravest people get braces because it takes years for their teeth to move to the right spots and positions. But all the challenges you go through turn out to be totally worth it when you see your Hollywood smile in the mirror.
The Elite Indian got really inspired by the results from people who wore braces. They shared their “before and after” photos online.
