\"Celebrity<\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Dental implants are the gold standard for replacing missing teeth\u2014and not just for everyday patients! Believe it or not, plenty of A-listers and recognized celebrities have turned to dental implants<\/a> to keep their smiles camera-ready. Here are five famous people whose stories might surprise you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Demi Moore<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In a candid appearance on The Tonight Show, Demi Moore told Jimmy Fallon that she had lost her two front teeth due to stress. Rather than going for dentures or a bridge, she chose dental implants for their durability and lifelike results. Her story is one of the more relatable ones\u2014a star showing their vulnerability. It\u2019s also a good reminder that tooth loss can happen to anyone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Christie Brinkley<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Christie Brinkley has one of the most recognizable faces in modeling, and her smile is one of the reasons for her success. That\u2019s why, after a serious helicopter crash during a backcountry skiing trip, she chose dental implants to restore her appearance. The best thing about her situation is that she’s been so open about it, helping others see that getting teeth replaced doesn\u2019t mean the end of the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gary Busey<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

After a near-fatal motorcycle accident in 1988 left Gary Busey with severe facial injuries, including lost teeth. He underwent extensive dental reconstruction to bring his smile back from the brink, including implants to replace the teeth he lost. So, when you see his signature oversized grin, that\u2019s largely the product of implants and restorations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mike Tyson<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

As a heavyweight boxing champion, lost teeth just come with the territory. However, Mike Tyson didn\u2019t want to let his smile decline after years of fighting. Once he retired, he received a total dental makeover, including implants. For someone who spent decades taking and delivering some of the hardest hits in the ring, a durable tooth replacement was a must.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ed Helms<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Ed Helms, best known as Stu from The Hangover, never had an adult tooth grow in to replace one of his front teeth, so he had a dental implant placed. When he needed his character to wake up with a missing tooth, he just had his dentist remove the restoration. It\u2019s a great example of creative coincidence feeding into movie magic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If implants can hold up under the scrutiny of red carpets and sold-out arenas, they’re more than ready for everyday life. If you’re missing a tooth and curious about your options, implants are worth a conversation with your dentist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
