Smile Makeover
A smile makeover isn’t a treatment, it’s a plan. Whitening changes colour. Bonding and veneers change shape. Implants and bridges replace what’s missing. Orthodontics moves teeth into position. On their own, each does one job well. Combined without a plan, they can pull against each other, a shape that looks right until the shade doesn’t match, or straight teeth that still look uneven once you smile.
A smile makeover is where we work out the whole picture first, in what order, using what treatments, so every piece works with the others rather than being fixed in isolation.
What a smile makeover can involve
Depending on what your case needs, a smile makeover can draw on:
Teeth whitening
Corrects colour and shade uniformity.
Conservative dentistry (bonding and veneers)
Corrects shape, size, and surface irregularities like chips or wear.
Rehabilitation (crowns, bridges, implants)
Replaces missing or badly damaged teeth so the smile is complete, not just cosmetic.
Periodontics
Addresses gum health and gum line shape, since uneven or receding gums undercut even well-made restorative work.
Orthodontics
Corrects tooth position, sometimes a prerequisite before veneers or bonding can even work properly.
Not every case needs all five. Some need one, most need two or three working together.
How long does it take?
Depends entirely on what’s included. Whitening and bonding alone can be done in a couple of visits. Add orthodontics or periodontal treatment first, and the full plan can run several months to over a year, since those need to finish before the cosmetic work goes on top. You’ll get a realistic timeline once the plan is set, not before.
How it works
- Consultation to assess your smile and talk through what you want to change
- Treatment sequencing, working out the right order (periodontal health and orthodontics, where needed, generally come before cosmetic work, not after)
- Phased treatment, carried out in the planned order
- Final review against the plan
