A beautiful smile is like a magnet to the Hollywood spotlight. In showbiz, there’s no denying that a gorgeous grin can make all the difference in getting noticed on the red carpet.
Some lucky stars are blessed with perfect teeth from the beginning, while others opt for cosmetic dentistry procedures like veneers or teeth whitening to thrust that smile from the D- to the A-List. Though there are countless celebrities with incredible grins, here are our personal top 10 smiles in Hollywood.
Lupita Nyong’o
Who doesn’t love this Black Panther star and Oscar winner? Confidently owning every appearance from gracing the cover of Vogue to speaking out for women’s rights, Lupita’s bright smile never fails to pull people in.
Looking for a Lupita level of smile perfection? Most teeth with that kind of sparkle have undergone some level of professional whitening. We love Zoom! Whitening, which boosts your teeth up to eight shades brighter in a single appointment.
Gal Gadot
Is it any surprise that Wonder Woman has a wonderful smile? Gal Gadot smashes super villains and box office records with feminist flair.
This DC Comics hero certainly doesn’t need to be beaming to beat the baddies, but she never shies away from the camera when she wants to show off her dazzling grin. With a smile that gorgeous, why would she?
Emma Stone
She’s the talented girl-next-door we’d all love to be besties with. Emma also boasts a radiant grin that was on proud display when scoring her Best Actress Oscar for La La Land in 2017. Whether playing her look quirky and casual, or straight-up stunning on the red carpet, we love everything about Emma’s smile style.
Chris Pratt
With the ability to go from hilarious goofball to classic Hollywood hunk in seconds, resisting the charm of this Jurassic World and Guardians of the Galaxy star is nearly impossible. Chris Pratt’s warm ear-to-ear grin draws everybody in, with a near universal effect of people either wanting to be him, or be with him.
Donald Glover
The uber talented Donald Glover does it all. From selling out shows as Grammy nominated rapper Childish Gambino, to winning a Best Actor Emmy for his incredible performance in Atlanta (for which he also writes, produces and directs), he doesn’t need a stunning smirk to make his mark.
But can anyone not get butterflies when he smiles? As the newest Lando Calrissian in the Star Wars universe and voice of Simba in the Lion King remake, Donald Glover’s future looks bright as a Hollywood mainstay. With this charming grin, we’re praying he’ll be gracing our screens for decades to come.
Ryan Reynolds
Ryan Reynolds is the whole Hollywood package. He’s hilarious, ridiculously good looking, and serious box office magic. As everyone’s favorite foul-mouthed antihero Deadpool, he’d likely be an unstoppable force without that impeccable mile-long smile. But hey, we’re not complaining. Keep on grinning Ryan!
Jennifer Lawrence
Goofy and gorgeous with a perfect grin. Jennifer Lawrence has been an acting tour-de-force since she was discovered by a sharp-eyed talent scout at age 14. Just a few years later, she snagged her first of four Oscar noms, finally winning the Best Actress award for Silver Linings Playbook in 2012.
She continues to surprise us with her versatile, unstoppable acting chops. What doesn’t surprise anyone is how she lights up every red carpet with her nonstop grin.
Morgan Freeman
With a voice everyone loves, Morgan Freeman is also the perfect example of how a little cosmetic dentistry can make anyone look years younger.
Freeman has clearly had substantial veneer work performed in the last decade, straightening and whitening his aging teeth. He may have recently entered his 80s, but his revamped smile helps him looks years younger.
Chrissy Teigen
This witty, outspoken model, Lip Sync Battle co-host, and cookbook author has many things to smile about, and we’re all in luck when she does. The vivacious wife of musician John Legend, Chrissy Teigen truly lights up a room when she flashes her grin.
And in true Chrissy Teigen fashion, she’s not shy about discussing her decision to have cosmetic dental work done. In an interview with Refinery 29 she calls herself a “notorious teeth grinder,” resulting in teeth “a few millimeters shorter.” Desiring a dream smile, she got porcelain veneers, amplifying her beauty even more.
George Clooney
The epitome of a modern Hollywood legend, it’s not only George Clooney’s suave style and dashing good looks that sets him apart. One flash of his signature style and all eyes are officially on him.
This two-time Academy Award winning actor didn’t get that flawless grin completely naturally though. After years of grinding his teeth due to stress, he chose to get porcelain veneers, lengthening and whitening his teeth to red carpet perfection.
