What is a smile makeover?
A smile makeover is a cosmetic procedure that makes your smile look better. It generally involves a combination of different cosmetic procedures to achieve the desired results. In addition to revamping your smile’s appearance, a smile makeover can improve the function of your teeth and oral health.
What cosmetic procedures can be included in a smile makeover?
A smile makeover may include one or more of the following cosmetic procedures:
- Teeth whitening: A tooth-bleaching treatment to eliminate stains and give you whiter, brighter teeth
- Porcelain veneers: Thin, porcelain shells that conceal imperfections in your teeth to improve their appearance
- Dental bonding: The use of tooth-colored resin material to correct tooth flaws and improve your smile’s aesthetics
- Dental crowns: Porcelain caps placed over damaged teeth to restore their shape, color, and structure
- Dental implants: Restorative treatment used to replace missing teeth
- Braces and clear aligners: Orthodontic treatments to improve your smile’s alignment
What’s the process for getting a smile makeover?
Dr. Wallengren will start with an initial consultation and evaluation of your teeth to assess the problems that need to be fixed. These problems may include stained or discolored teeth, damaged teeth, spacing issues, crooked teeth, misshapen or irregularly sized teeth, missing teeth, and more. Next, we’ll discuss how you’d like your smile to be and set goals for your treatment. Then, we’ll go over your options for cosmetic dental procedures to help you achieve the desired results.

How long does it take to complete a smile makeover?
That depends on the procedures being used. Some procedures like bonding and teeth whitening can be completed fairly quickly – in one day. Veneers and crowns may take several weeks as your restorations are custom-made for your teeth in an off-site lab. Implant treatment can take six months or longer, while orthodontics may take several years. After planning your smile makeover, Dr. Wallengren can give you a tentative time frame for completing it.
What are the benefits of getting a smile makeover?
A smile makeover can help you achieve the healthy, beautiful smile of your dreams. You can also benefit from improved oral health and function, increased happiness and self-esteem, and greater confidence to pursue your dreams.
