Who says braces aren't cool?

Braces today are - dare we say - cool, fun and and even fashionable. After all, these were among the findings of a 2010 nationwide survey of moms whose kids are going through or have had orthodontic treatment recently. New technologies such as Invisalign and the Damon System, advanced computer software, color options, and even popular celebrities—Tom Cruise, Dakota Fanning, Danny Glover, among others—sporting stylish braces are making orthodontic treatment more comfortable, fashionable and cool for today’s teens and young adults.

The study found 86 percent of moms reporting that braces are cooler today than when they were children. Sixty-nine percent of moms also said wearing braces makes their children feel cool, and 81 percent reported their kids' experience with orthodontic treatment as either positive or extremely positive.
