What Are My Treatment Options for a Smile Makeover?
While the exact combination of treatments used to perform your smile makeover will depend on the specific aesthetic issues you wish to address, some of the most common dental services employed include:
- Porcelain Veneers – Used for concealing minor structural tooth imperfections and deep stains
- Dental Crowns and Bridges – Used for reinforcing and/or replacing badly damaged or decayed teeth
- Invisalign® – Used for closing gaps, straightening misaligned teeth, and correcting bite problems
- Teeth Whitening – Used for brightening teeth affected by yellowing and/or discoloration
- Dental Implants – Used for replacing a single tooth or multiple teeth
WHAT IS THE SMILE MAKEOVER PROCESS LIKE?
To start the smile makeover process, your doctor will perform a full smile analysis using our Galileos™ 3D imaging system—a powerful diagnostic technology that digitally captures and displays all aspects of your oral anatomy on a chairside monitor. Once all cosmetic concerns have been identified, your dentist will recommend various treatment options that can effectively address your needs and achieve your smile goals, as well as provide a detailed explanation of what each option entails. You will also be able to view a simulation of what your new smile can potentially look like with various restorations via our state-of-the-art SmileMe® software, allowing you to make the most informed decisions about your care.
Once you and your doctor have agreed upon a smile makeover plan, it may be possible for your treatment to be completed in a matter of hours. Using advanced CEREC® technology, your dentist can design and mill porcelain veneers, crowns, and/or bridges with exceptional precision right here in our office while you read, watch television, or simply relax. Following their creation, your restorations can be secured in place and polished for an optimal look, enabling you to leave our office the same day with your new smile.
In the event your custom plan includes more complex treatments like Invisalign® and/or dental implants, the smile makeover process will need to be completed over the course of multiple visits. The exact number of appointments will depend on the extent of dental work needed, all of which will be discussed with you during treatment planning.
Regardless of how many appointments are required for your smile makeover, you can expect to receive top-level care and beautiful final results.
