Who should consider getting a smile makeover?
If you’re unhappy with the look of your teeth, a smile makeover could be the perfect solution. Smile makeovers can address chipped, stained, missing, or crooked teeth, as well as gaps or uneven bites. Anyone in good oral and overall health who wants to improve the appearance of their smile may benefit from this comprehensive treatment.
Dental Concerns That Smile Makeovers Fix
Smile makeovers can solve many aesthetic concerns with tooth color, shape, size, or alignment, including:
- Damaged or worn teeth: Examples include chipped or cracked teeth. 
- Off-colored smiles: Treatment can fix stained or otherwise discolored teeth. 
- Missing or gapped teeth: Smile makeovers can fill or close spaces in teeth. 
- Misaligned smile: Orthodontics can solve crowded or crooked teeth. 
- Gummy smiles: Gum contouring alters the gums to show more of the teeth when smiling. 
What Does a Smile Makeover Entail?
Smile makeovers utilize multiple cosmetic dentistry procedures to help patients achieve their ideal smile. The process begins with an oral exam, during which the dentist will ensure the patient is a good fit for treatment and create a customized plan for them.
The goal is to match the patient’s new teeth to the shape, color, and size of their natural teeth, while also considering skin tone, hair color, facial features, gums, and lips.
Common dental procedures associated with smile makeovers include:
- Dental crowns: Tooth-shaped caps that cover imperfections. 
- Dental bonding: A filling material that repairs cracks, chips, or gaps in teeth. 
- Dental implants: Artificial teeth that attach to the jawbone permanently. 
- Veneers: Shells that fully cover the front of the teeth. 
- Gum contouring: Reshaping of the gumline for a more balanced smile. 
- Teeth whitening: Bleaching agents are used to lighten stained enamel.
