What is a Full Smile Makeover?

A smile makeover is meant to be a comprehensive approach to transforming a smile from top to bottom. For some, a single cosmetic treatment is not enough to address issues like chips, cracks, gaps, and permanent discoloration, all of which can make your smile look aged and unhealthy, even if you have no dental health problems. Through a smile makeover, we can specifically address each of your dental concerns with targeted and personalized forms of care. If you want to make sure that your smile looks exactly the way you’ve always wanted it to, you’ll find a smile makeover to be extremely beneficial.

 

How Does a Full Smile Makeover Work?

In the first phase of treatment, you complete a detailed consultation with one of our experts to discuss your cosmetic needs, concerns and goals. During this meeting, you’ll also get a chance to review all of your cosmetic options and which ones are most ideal based on your specific needs. For example, we may determine that porcelain veneers or dental bonding are the best ways to cover stains or hide gaps in your smile.

After completing our detailed analysis of your smile, we’ll schedule you for your next appointment, which is when the actual treatments will take place. Your smile makeover may take more than one appointment depending on your specific needs, but we’ll do everything that we can to make sure your concerns are addressed before completing any treatment.

 

What are the Benefits of a Full Smile Makeover?

When you choose a smile makeover to transform your smile, you’re being extremely productive and efficient compared to simply completing one treatment at a time. By addressing all of your issues at once, you reduce your risk of needing future cosmetic treatments to complete touch-ups for missed areas of your smile. You’re also able to address issues that might require more than cosmetic solutions, such as tooth-colored fillings or crowns to restore damaged teeth on top of your smile goals.

Furthermore, smile makeovers are designed to give you a major confidence boost once all is said and done. You just might be surprised by how attractive your smile looks and what it can do for you in social and professional work settings.

 

Smile Makeover FAQs

If you are interested in transforming your smile, our Beachwood team is ready and eager to assist you. Before you commit to treatment, though, you might want to know more about the road in front of you. We understand your feelings, so we have put together the following list of FAQs to help you gather information. If your specific questions are not included here, reach out to us directly — we would love to speak with you!

How Many Treatments Can You Include in a Smile Makeover?

A smile makeover can include as many treatments as necessary to help you reach your goals. Some patients need just one or two treatments, such as teeth whitening paired with veneers. Others require more extensive care, which might include some restorative services, like crowns and fillings.

During your consultation, we can figure out how many treatments you may need to achieve your ideal look.

How Long Does a Smile Makeover Take?

The duration of a smile makeover varies from case to case. Some treatments, such as teeth whitening, can usually be completed in a single appointment. We even have the technology to create high-quality crowns in one visit! Other services, such as veneers, require two or more appointments. Invisalign and ClearCorrect can take months from start to finish.

When you come in for your consultation, we will be able to estimate a timeline for your smile makeover.

Does a Smile Makeover Hurt?

Most cosmetic services are relatively comfortable. We administer local anesthesia and sedation when appropriate to help patients enjoy an easy treatment experience. However, you might experience a temporary increase in dental sensitivity or a bit of soreness after some procedures. Our team will give you tips to mitigate your discomfort.

Severe pain is unusual with cosmetic treatments and can indicate that there is a problem. If you are ever concerned about the state of your oral health, you should call us right away for assistance.

Is a Smile Makeover Covered by Insurance?

A smile makeover focuses on enhancing the aesthetics of your teeth, so it typically includes treatments that are considered purely elective. Therefore, insurance is unlikely to cover them.

However, some treatments that benefit oral health and enhance your appearance may be covered. For example, you may receive up to 50% coverage for metal-free crowns.

Our friendly team is used to dealing with the ins and outs of insurance, and we will be happy to help you figure out how your benefits apply.
