How Does a Smile Makeover Work?

A smile makeover begins with a consultation. Our team will learn about your goals for treatment and use an intraoral scanner to capture images of your teeth. Those images will then be uploaded into our Virtual Smile Design software, which we can use to give you a preview of your results. Please feel free to offer your opinion of what you see; we may be able to make adjustments according to your preferences.

Once the treatment plan is finalized, we can get to work on your smile. You might undergo multiple services, including:

  • Teeth whitening
  • Veneers
  • Metal-free restorations
  • Cosmetic bonding
  • And more

From start to finish, a smile makeover may require multiple appointments spread out over the course of a few weeks or longer. The timeline can be extended if you need any restorative treatment before you get started with cosmetic dentistry procedures. For example, some patients need fillings or gum disease therapy.

The Benefits of Getting a Smile Makeover

When you undergo a smile makeover, you may experience a number of noteworthy benefits. For example, you might:

  • Reduce your risk of future oral health problems. High-quality restorations can do much to protect your teeth.
  • Enjoy a more comfortable bite. Restorations can help your upper and lower teeth work better together.
  • Have a more confident smile and improved overall self-esteem. Patients usually feel like the best version of themselves when they have an attractive set of teeth.
  • Be able to enjoy the results of your treatment for many years. For example, veneers often last for 10 – 15 years or longer.
  • Have a younger appearance. White, straight teeth are often associated with youthfulness.
  • Be more motivated to stick to a thorough oral hygiene routine. Good brushing and flossing habits can protect the results of your smile makeover.

Understanding the Cost of a Smile Makeover

The cost of a smile makeover depends heavily on which cosmetic treatments you undergo and the extent of those treatments. Some services, such as teeth whitening, have a relatively low price, while veneers often run thousands of dollars. During your consultation, we can discuss specific numbers with you. We can also help you understand your payment options.

Although a smile makeover can seem pricey at first, you can be confident that it is a great investment in your confidence, your appearance, and possibly even your oral health!

Smile Makeover FAQs

How many treatments can you include in a smile makeover?

A smile makeover can include as many treatments as needed to help you reach your goals! Some patients get the results they want with teeth whitening and veneers. Others require additional treatments, such as restorative care to replace an old crown or replace missing teeth.

During your consultation, our Vero Beach team will design a treatment plan to help you achieve your ideal smile in the most efficient way possible.

How long does a smile makeover take?

The duration of a smile makeover depends on the specific treatments involved. Services like teeth whitening and dental bonding can often be completed in just one appointment. Veneers and crowns may take two or more appointments. If you need clear aligners to address misalignment, the process may stretch across several months.

When you visit us to talk about your smile makeover, we can provide a rough estimate as to how long the process will take. Whenever it is reasonable to do so, we improve efficiency by performing multiple treatments at the same time.

Does a smile makeover hurt?

Most of the procedures involved in a smile makeover are relatively comfortable. If you need any invasive treatments, we will be sure to numb your mouth during your appointment.

Some cosmetic treatments cause temporary soreness or an increase in dental sensitivity. These symptoms often last just a few days, and they can be managed with dietary changes, over-the-counter pain relievers, and gentle oral hygiene. We will provide you with specific and detailed aftercare instructions to make your post-treatment experience as easy as possible.

Can I see my smile makeover results ahead of time?

Yes! Our practice features virtual smile design software. We will simply capture detailed images of your teeth and then use the program to give you a preview of what your smile may look like after you complete treatment.

Not only can this give you the confidence to commit to cosmetic dentistry, but it also makes you an active participant in your care. We want you to give us feedback on the treatment plan so we can adjust the projected color or shape of your teeth in a way that aligns with your aesthetic goals.
