What is a Smile Makeover?

The term "Smile Makeover" doesn’t refer to a single dental procedure but instead describes the comprehensive process of combining various treatments to achieve complete mouth rehabilitation resulting in a better overall smile. This kind of combined care is usually only needed when you have decay or damage to the majority of your teeth. We have a lot of options for dealing with issues in just a few teeth, but some patients need more care than that.

Reconstruction or restoration is a great way to get a fresh start. Each treatment plan is unique because it’s tailored to the patient's precise needs.

What is the Process for Full Mouth Restoration?

While each restoration process is unique and tailored to the patient’s needs and wants, some basic steps are common to all restorations.

1. Consultation & Examination

Your journey begins with an initial consultation where we discuss your oral health concerns and the goals for your smile. We’ll also review any health conditions that could affect your treatment options. This first visit typically includes:

• A comprehensive oral examination.
• Imaging (X-rays, scans, photos) to assess dental issues.
• A discussion of potential treatment plans.

2. Oral Health Preparation & Surgery

Before cosmetic or restorative procedures, we focus on improving your overall oral health. This step ensures a strong foundation for lasting results. Treatments may include:

• Addressing gum disease, infections, and jawbone health.
• Extracting damaged teeth if necessary.
• Performing surgeries such as bone grafts or implant placements.

3. Cosmetic & Final Restorations

Once your mouth is healthy, we move on to restoring and enhancing your smile. This phase involves:

• Placing crowns, veneers, or bridges for a seamless look.
• Whitening or reshaping natural teeth to match restorations.
• Completing final adjustments for a natural, confident smile.
