Could a smile makeover give you the perfect smile?
Just as no two people are the same, no two smiles are the same either. So it stands to reason that what is needed to create the perfect smile for you won’t be the same as for everyone else. A smile makeover is akin to a total facelift for your mouth and teeth, combining two or more cosmetic dental procedures to achieve the smile of your dreams.
Why might I need a smile makeover?
Without a smile you can be proud of, you may experience a loss in self-confidence. You may find you are so self-conscious that you avoid smiling in front of people or dread having your photograph taken. That’s why so many people opt for a smile makeover ahead of big events like weddings.
If you are living with several dental issues, your smile may give you an unhealthy look and could make you look much older than you really are.
If that’s the case, a smile makeover is an ideal way to get the most impressive results in the shortest amount of time.
Opting to have a number of treatments carried out in one well-thought-out treatment schedule can make a big difference to your overall appearance and give you a huge confidence boost.
What issues could a smile makeover solve?
Many of our patients opt for a smile makeover to address several issues and achieve their ideal smile. This means that each smile makeover is different.
A smile makeover is designed to look at your mouth as a whole and to make a number of cosmetic improvements at the same time to achieve the best results.
Your dentist will carry out a thorough review and consultation with you to decide which combination will work best for you. They will take into account the overall shape of your face as well as the dimensions of your smile and teeth to make sure that the finished look works in balance with the rest of your features.
Dental work which could be carried out includes treatments for:
- Chipped teeth
- Teeth gaps
- Stained teeth
- Tooth decay
- Uneven gums or ‘gummy smiles’
- Tooth loss
What types of treatments could be included in a smile makeover?
The types of treatment your dentist could recommend will vary according to the dental and cosmetic issues you’d like to improve. Your dentist will build you a completely bespoke smile makeover package. Typically, smile makeover treatment packages could include:
- Veneers to improve the overall look, shape and size of your teeth
- Teeth whitening for a whiter, brighter shade
- Implants or bridges to replace missing teeth
- Crowns to restore damaged teeth
- Gum recontouring to eliminate gummy smiles
- Braces to improve alignment
By combining a number of treatments, your dentist will give you a whiter, brighter, straighter, more aesthetically pleasing smile.
How long will a smile makeover take?
This will depend on the type of treatments you and your dentist decide upon, as well as the number of procedures you choose. It could be that you can see results within a very short space of time if you opt for cosmetic dental work such as teeth whitening or gum contouring to correct a gummy smile. Or, you may need to factor in a few months if you decide on work such as implants for missing teeth or Invisalign treatments to straighten your teeth and close gaps.
But, no matter whether it takes a few hours or a few months to see the finished results, you can be sure that the feeling of confidence a great smile gives you will make the wait worthwhile.
A smile makeover can positively transform not just your smile, but so many other aspects of your life too.
