Smile makeover

What is a smile makeover?

The smile makeover is designed for the individual to look at the health of their teeth, the aesthetics of their teeth, the colour of their teeth, and their positioning. It will create the flawless look you always want! 

A smile makeover is a comprehensive dental treatment or series of treatments designed to enhance the overall appearance of a person’s smile. It involves addressing various cosmetic and aesthetic concerns to create a more harmonious and attractive smile. A smile makeover is typically tailored to the individual’s specific needs and desired outcome.

You don’t have to let your crooked or stained teeth worry you or have an effect on your confidence anymore. Our straightforward and cost-effective range of dental treatments can give you the perfect and natural smile you have always dreamed of. 

Who may need a smile makeover?

A smile makeover may be suitable for individuals who are dissatisfied with the appearance of their smile and wish to enhance its aesthetics.

  • Discoloured or Stained Teeth: Teeth that are yellowed, stained, or discoloured can significantly impact the overall attractiveness of a smile. Teeth whitening or other cosmetic procedures can help improve the colour and brightness of the teeth.

  • Crooked or Misaligned Teeth: Teeth that are crowded, crooked, or have gaps between them can be addressed through orthodontic treatments like braces or clear aligners. Straightening the teeth can enhance both the appearance and functionality of the smile.

  • Chipped or Cracked Teeth: Teeth that are chipped, cracked, or have uneven edges can be repaired using techniques such as dental bonding or porcelain veneers. 

  • Missing Teeth: Gaps due to missing teeth can affect the appearance and functionality of a smile. Dental implants, bridges, or dentures can be used to replace missing teeth, improving both aesthetics and oral function.

  • Uneven Gum Line: Excessive or uneven gums can create an imbalanced smile. Gum contouring or reshaping procedures can help create a more symmetrical and pleasing gum line.

  •  Ageing Smile: Over time, teeth can wear down, become discoloured, or show signs of ageing. A smile makeover can rejuvenate the smile by addressing these issues, helping individuals achieve a more youthful and vibrant appearance.

  • Self-Confidence and Self-Esteem: Many people who are unhappy with their smile may experience a lack of confidence or self-esteem. A smile makeover can boost self-confidence and improve overall emotional well-being.

When looking at the choices available, our dentists often consider crooked or uneven smiles that can be improved using teeth-straightening orthodontic treatments like Invisalign or metal braces. If you would like a quicker result, porcelain veneers are another durable option.

The procedures involved in a smile makeover

The specific treatments included in a smile makeover can vary depending on factors such as the patient's oral health, the condition of their teeth and gums, and their personal preferences. The procedures involved in a smile makeover can vary depending on the individual's needs and goals. 

  •  Teeth Whitening: This is a non-invasive procedure that can brighten and remove stains from the teeth, enhancing the overall appearance of the smile. Darkly stained teeth can be brightened by using a professional teeth whitening treatment. We also have the option of internal bleaching, which lightens the teeth from the inside out.
  • Dental Veneers: These are thin, custom-made shells that are bonded to the front surface of the teeth. Discoloured teeth will generally be improved with our professional teeth-whitening treatment. In some cases, such as mottling of the teeth's colour, which can be due to side effects of medication, tooth whitening isn’t appropriate. In these cases, thin porcelain veneers will be the best option. Veneers can correct a variety of cosmetic issues as well, such as chips, cracks, gaps.
  • Dental Crowns: Dental crowns are custom-made caps that are placed over damaged or decayed teeth to restore their shape, size, strength, and appearance. 
  • Orthodontic Treatments: Braces or clear aligner systems like Invisalign may be used to correct misaligned teeth, overcrowding, or bite issues, resulting in a straighter and more harmonious smile.
  • Dental Implants: These are artificial tooth roots that are surgically placed into the jawbone. They can support dental crowns, bridges, or dentures to replace missing teeth, improving both aesthetics and functionality. The most effective option for tooth replacement is a dental implant because it looks and performs just like a natural tooth. The crown’s colour can be matched to your natural teeth, so no one will know it’s an implant. A dental implant looks and works like a natural tooth. 
  • Denture and Bridge: Missing teeth are replaced with dental implants, bridges, or dentures. 
  • Gum Contouring: Also known as gum reshaping, this procedure involves removing excess gum tissue to create a more balanced and visually pleasing gum line.
  • Composite Bonding: Tooth-coloured composite resin is applied to the teeth to repair minor imperfections such as chips, cracks, or gaps, resulting in an improved smile.
  • Full-Mouth Reconstruction: In cases where extensive dental issues are present, a comprehensive treatment plan may be developed to address multiple concerns and restore the function and aesthetics of the entire mouth.

What are the precautions after a smile makeover?

After undergoing a smile makeover, it is important to follow certain precautions to ensure optimal results and maintain the health and longevity of your new smile. 

  • Oral Hygiene: Maintain good oral hygiene practises by brushing your teeth at least twice a day and flossing daily. Use a soft-bristled toothbrush and non-abrasive toothpaste to avoid damaging any dental restorations.
  • Regular Dental Visits: Schedule regular check-ups and cleanings with your dentist. They will monitor the condition of your smile makeover, identify any potential issues early on, and provide necessary maintenance or adjustments.
  • Avoid Excessive Force: Be mindful of avoiding excessive force or pressure on your dental restorations. Avoid biting down on hard objects like ice, pens, or fingernails, as it can chip or damage your teeth or restorations.
  • Wear A Mouthguard: If you engage in contact sports or activities that may pose a risk of dental injury, wear a mouthguard to protect your teeth and restorations.
  • Watch Your Diet: Be cautious with your diet to prevent damage to your smile makeover. Avoid excessively hard or sticky foods that can put stress on dental restorations. Additionally, limit the consumption of staining substances like coffee, tea, red wine, and tobacco, as they can affect the appearance of your teeth.
  • Address Teeth Grinding or Clenching: If you have a habit of grinding or clenching your teeth, known as bruxism, inform your dentist. They may recommend wearing a nightguard to protect your teeth and restorations while you sleep.
  • Maintain Dental Restorations: Follow any specific care instructions provided by your dentist for your dental restorations. For example, if you have dental veneers or crowns, avoid biting hard objects and seek prompt professional attention if you experience any issues like loosening or sensitivity.
  • Communicate With Your Dentist: If you have any concerns or notice changes in your smile or oral health, contact your dentist promptly. They can provide guidance and advice and address any issues that may arise. 

 

It's essential to follow the post-treatment instructions provided by your dentist to ensure the best possible outcome and long-term success of your smile makeover.
