A smile makeover can be a life-changing investment you make in yourself. Cosmetic dentistry can change how your smile looks, but many smile makeover procedures can also improve the functionality of your teeth. Modern smile makeovers can do everything from brightening your smile to replacing a missing tooth and full-mouth reconstruction. With the help of Drs. Jennifer Wahlen, John Torghele, and our team, you can choose a combination of different procedures to give yourself the smile you’ve always wanted.
A smile makeover is a comprehensive approach that can enhance your smile with cosmetic dentistry techniques, orthodontics, or restoring a missing or broken tooth. Smile makeovers are unique to every individual, depending on your specific needs and your budget. It can involve minor adjustments or more extensive options.
In the past, cavities were filled with metal, and many still have silver fillings. Today, you can choose tooth-colored fillings for a more natural-looking smile.
Over-the-counter teeth whitening treatments are ineffective, and their safety is questionable. For a dazzling smile, professional teeth whitening is the way to go. We use Sinsational Smile, which is performed in the office. With Sinsational Smile, you can have whiter teeth in just one appointment. Take-home bleaching trays are an excellent option to whiten your teeth more gradually.
For dental veneers, ultra-thin porcelain shells are bonded to the front of your teeth to camouflage stains, mask chips, and minor misalignments. When properly cared for, veneers are durable and last 10-15 years.
Many people with crooked teeth can benefit from clear aligner therapy for a straighter smile. Unlike metal braces, transparent clear aligners are removable, which allows you to enjoy the foods you love and practice better oral hygiene.
If you’ve ever had a root canal, your dentist may have placed a crown over the tooth to strengthen and protect it. Porcelain crowns can also be used in smile makeovers. A porcelain crown can cover a discolored tooth, replace large fillings, restore the original shape of a worn-down tooth, and camouflage uneven or misshapen teeth.
Dental bonding is a great option for cost-effective fixes for minor imperfections. In this procedure, tooth-colored resin material is applied to the surface of a tooth. The resin is shaped and allowed to harden for a result that looks natural. Dental bonding can work for any of these dental problems:
