Justin Bieber's Teeth: From Grills to a Brighter, Even Smile
Justin Bieber went from a natural teen smile (and a phase of diamond grills) to a brighter, more even one consistent with veneers. Here's the before-and-after and what comparable work costs in Turkey.
Justin Bieber grew up in front of the world, and his smile changed along the way — from a natural teen smile, through a well-documented phase of diamond grills, to the brighter, more even smile he has today. It's one of the most-searched celebrity smiles, and a useful example of the difference between removable jewellery and permanent cosmetic dentistry.
Justin Bieber's Teeth: Before and After
Bieber's early smile was natural with mild colour and shape variation. Later it became brighter and more uniform, consistent with veneers and whitening — separate from the removable diamond grills he wore for a period, which are jewellery, not dentistry. The permanent change is restrained and believable. Patients considering veneers can start with veneers in Turkey cost.
Grills vs Veneers: What's the Difference?
A grill is a removable decorative cover that clips over the teeth — temporary and purely cosmetic, with no clinical benefit (and worn long-term they can trap plaque). Veneers are thin porcelain shells permanently bonded to the teeth that change colour, shape, and alignment for years.
If you want a lasting smile rather than an accessory, veneers are the route — see how they compare with the no-drill option in veneers vs composite bonding.
What a Comparable Smile Costs in Turkey
A full upper veneer set comparable to Bieber's costs around €2,500–€6,000 with experienced Istanbul clinics, several times less than in the US. Cost depends on units, material, and any prep. Compare materials in E-max vs zirconia veneers, or get a free quote.
The Clinic Matters More Than the Country
The result of any of these treatments depends far more on the clinic and clinician than on the destination.
