A smile makeover combines restorative, general, and cosmetic dentistry procedures to address all of the issues impacting the teeth and gums. If you have several issues that are detracting from the health and beauty of your smile, it might be time to call our office, schedule a consultation and learn more about this exciting option.
Which Procedures are Included in the Smile Makeover?
Each smile makeover is unique, customized to meet the specific needs of the individual. However, there are some treatments that are fairly common during the smile makeover process. These include:
- Teeth whitening
- Dental bonding
- Porcelain veneers
- Dental crowns
- Gum recontouring
If your bite is impacted by malocclusion, options such as Invisalign® might be included in your smile makeover as well. So too might treatments for bruxism, such as occlusal guards, to help prevent additional problems from occurring.
Am I a Good Smile Makeover Candidate?
The best candidates for a smile makeover are people who are unhappy with the appearance of their smile and cannot reach their goals through a single treatment option. If you have gum disease, tooth infection, TMJ, or another oral health concern, it will need to be addressed before cosmetic treatments can begin. During your initial consultation, one of our experienced dentists will listen to your concerns and carefully evaluate your teeth and gums to help determine if a smile makeover is the best choice for your needs.
Following your smile makeover, you will want to take steps to protect the strength and appearance of your smile. Good smile makeover candidates should be willing to adopt a solid at-home dental care routine and closely follow any individualized instructions provided by our staff. We are committed to helping you achieve the most beautiful smile possible. The steps you take to maintain it will help ensure the longest-lasting results.
