How Does a Smile Makeover Work?
The first step in the smile makeover process is a consultation with our team. We will examine your mouth in order to learn about your oral health. We will also ask you what you want to accomplish. Then, we can take photos of your teeth and upload them into our advanced Digital Smile Design software. It can give you a realistic preview of what your results might look like, and it can allow you to play an active role in customizing your treatments.
A smile makeover might include multiple treatments, such as:
- Restorative services to improve your oral health.
- Invisalign to correct unsightly dental misalignment and improve oral function.
- Metal-free restorations to repair damaged teeth without marring their appearance (or to replace old metal restorations).
- Veneers or bonding to hide flaws like chips, cracks, small gaps, and more.
- Teeth whitening to get rid of stubborn stains.
- Gum contouring to produce a more proportionate smile.
The Benefits of Getting a Smile Makeover
A smile makeover has the potential to provide several remarkable benefits:
- Improved oral function and health. This is especially true if you undergo Invisalign or restorative procedures. You might also find renewed motivation to care well for your teeth and gums.
- Enhanced confidence. You may look younger and enjoy an improved self-image, which can help you to feel confident in social situations.
- Natural-looking results. No one has to know that your smile underwent some cosmetic care.
- Durable results. The results of some cosmetic services have the potential to last for well over a decade.
- Streamlined treatment. We strive to make smile makeovers as efficient as possible.
Understanding the Cost of a Smile Makeover
The cost of a smile makeover depends on which specific treatments you undergo, as well as the extent of those treatments. During your consultation, we can talk about specific numbers. Most patients end up paying at least a few hundred dollars, with some smile makeovers costing tens of thousands of dollars.
Although a smile makeover might seem pricey, the benefits you experience may make it well worth the money! Plus, we offer convenient payment options, such as low-interest financing. You can expect our team to help you understand the monetary aspect of your care so that paying for your treatment is as low-stress as possible.
Smile Makeover FAQs
How Many Treatments Can You Include in a Smile Makeover?
The number of treatments included in a smile makeover depends on the needs of each unique patient. Some are able to achieve their desired results with just one or two relatively simple procedures, while others require much more extensive work. There really is no limit on the number of treatments that can be used to makeover your smile.
During your consultation, we can discuss which specific treatments might be right for you and what you can expect from them.
How Long Does a Smile Makeover Take?
The timeline for a smile makeover can vary quite a bit from patient to patient. Some treatments, such as dental bonding and teeth whitening, may take just one appointment. Others, like dental implants or Invisalign, can stretch out over the course of several months.
During your consultation, our team can estimate a timeline for your smile makeover. We will try to make the process as efficient as possible by performing multiple procedures at once when circumstances allow for it.
Is a Smile Makeover Safe?
Yes, a smile makeover is safe. There is very little risk involved in cosmetic dental procedures. We use top-quality materials that have a reputation for working well within the human body, and our team has a strong focus on protecting the health and safety of our patients.
Of course, not every patient is suited for every kind of treatment. That is why we will examine your mouth and screen you for any medical conditions that might make a smile makeover riskier than usual for you. For example, you should not get veneers if you have untreated cavities or gum disease. Such issues should be addressed before you move forward with cosmetic services.
Does a Smile Makeover Hurt?
A smile makeover should be comfortable overall. Some non-invasive procedures, such as teeth whitening and dental bonding, cause little to no discomfort. Other procedures, including the ones that involve surgery or modification of your natural enamel, are mor intensive. We typically use local anesthesia and, in some cases, sedation, to make the experience as easy as possible.
It is normal to experience some soreness after most dental procedures. Our team will provide instructions to support your body’s healing process and make you as comfortable as possible.
How Long Does Cosmetic Dentistry Last?
Different cosmetic treatments have varying life expectancies. For example, teeth whitening may last anywhere from a few months to a few years. Veneers, on the other hand, may endure for 15 – 20 years or longer. Gum recontouring should provide permanent results.
Of course, the duration of your results will depend partially on you. It is important that you maintain thorough oral hygiene, eat a balanced diet, avoid habits like smoking or chewing on hard objects, and attend regular dental checkups. These good practices will help your smile to stay as beautiful as possible for as long as possible.
