Smile Makeover with Cosmetic Dentistry
A smile makeover usually involves more than one cosmetic dentistry procedures targeting different areas of concern in the mouth that are visible when one talks, laughs, or smiles. With a smile makeover, patients whose teeth are marred by cosmetic concerns can achieve a beautiful smile that they can showoff with confidence.
Treatment Planning
The first step in the smile makeover process is to visit your cosmetic dentist to review your goals and establish a treatment plan. The dentist will evaluate your oral health and will determine which procedures may be appropriate for your needs. If there are existing dental health concerns such as decay or disease, these issues will need to be addressed prior to beginning the cosmetic components of your smile makeover. Each treatment plan is unique and designed to focus on the patient's individual concerns to create a healthy, attractive smile.
Treatment Options
Based on your needs, there are many treatment options that can be included in the smile makeover. Tooth discoloration can often be addressed with teeth whitening. Misalignment may require orthodontic treatment or porcelain veneers. Veneers can also be used to conceal chips, cracks, gaps, or discoloration. If missing teeth are a concern, dental implants may be recommended. The treatments that are included in your smile makeover will determine how long the process will take. Some treatments can be completed in as little as two visits, while others may require a longer treatment period.
