What to Expect From a Smile Makeover

What to Expect From a Smile Makeover

Team General Dentistry

If you have felt self-conscious about any aspect of your smile, you may want to rejuvenate your appearance and improve your oral health. A smile makeover combines several cosmetic and restorative dental procedures to create a healthy, natural look. Our smile makeovers are customized for your needs, giving optimal results.

Smile Makeover Goals

The exciting aspect of a smile makeover is that it goes much further than a standard dental treatment. The doctor will carefully listen to your goals and provide options that will bring you dazzling but natural results.

Common goals that smile makeover patients share include:

  • Create a youthful look
  • Replace missing or damaged teeth
  • Restore chipped or broken teeth
  • Remove stains and discoloration

Selected Procedures to Choose From

Working with our doctors, you can choose from an extensive cosmetic and restorative services menu to complete your new look. Some of our most popular options include:

Teeth Whitening

Yellow and discolored teeth may age your appearance. Teeth whitening can refresh your look using safe peroxide gels. We provide professional-strength whitening gels and custom trays you can safely use at home. Professional whitening is much more efficient and longer-lasting than using over-the-counter products.

Invisalign

Invisalign can help adults and older teens realize their dream of a straight, healthy smile. The Invisalign system consists of clear, medical-grade plastic aligners that gradually shift your teeth. Every one to two weeks, you will change your aligner at your dentist's direction. Treatment takes approximately 12 to 18 months. Compared to braces, Invisalign is comfortable, discreet, and convenient.

Dental Implants

Replacement is sometimes the only option for patients with missing or severely damaged teeth. Dental implants are today's most advanced tooth replacements. A titanium anchor bonds with your jawbone to provide strong support, and a dental crown matches your surrounding teeth.

Crowns

Dental crowns can extend their useful life and improve the appearance of broken, cracked, and decayed teeth with a strong root structure. They also provide excellent chewing function.

Veneers

We use thin sheets of fine porcelain to cover chipped, cracked, stained, and misshapen teeth. Porcelain veneers are long-lasting, stain-resistant, and beautiful.

Bonding

Dental bonding is a quick and cost-effective process that can correct the appearance of gapped, chipped, stained, and cracked teeth.

Replacing Old Fillings

Metal fillings are safe but can be unsightly, especially in the front of the mouth. When fillings reach the end of their lifespan, replacing them with tooth-colored composites can brighten your smile.
