Is a Smile Makeover Right for You?
What is a smile makeover?
It's dentistry that involves the improvement of your aesthetic smile—the appearance of your teeth. If you're looking to have whiter teeth, straighter teeth, or evenly colored teeth, that would fall under the specialty of cosmetic dentistry.
Are smile makeovers considered cosmetic or restorative?
They're actually considered both because you're improving the cosmetic appearance of your smile and restoring your teeth to ideal looks and function. The goals of a smile makeover are to enhance your appearance and the health and function of your teeth so that you can look and feel better.
What are the procedures involved in a smile makeover?
Many of you have heard of veneers, which are like ceramic covers on your teeth, bleaching to even out the color of your teeth, or aligning or straightening your teeth if they are crooked.
Will I need anesthesia during a smile makeover?
I recommend it. If you're someone who says, "I don't need anesthesia," I would suggest, "Why not be comfortable?" Yes, I would say go with the anesthesia.
How long will it take me to recover from a smile makeover?
It could range from a few days to a few weeks or even months, depending on the complexity of your case.
Can I resume brushing and flossing after my smile makeover?
Absolutely. We always encourage you to brush and floss. The answer is yes; get back to it right away to maintain your happy and healthy smile.
