Smile Makeover FAQs

How Many Treatments Can You Include in a Smile Makeover?

There is no limit to the number of treatments that can be part of your smile makeover plan. It all depends on what services the dentist offers as well as what changes you are trying to make. You can even have multiple treatments performed to address the same issue. For instance, teeth whitening, cosmetic dental bonding, and veneers can all be used to help you achieve a whiter smile.

During your initial consultation, we’ll discuss your goals and work with you to create a treatment plan. Rest assured that we’ll keep your budget in mind when considering the number of services that will be included in the smile makeover process.

How Long is a Smile Makeover?

The timeline for a smile makeover can vary from patient to patient. In general, the type of procedures involved can make a difference. Some treatments, such as cosmetic dental bonding, can be completed in as little as one appointment. Meanwhile, veneers usually take at least two visits that are weeks apart. And if you plan on replacing your missing teeth with dental implants, the process can take months.

We’ll take your schedule into account when putting together your smile makeover plan. Additionally, when we recommend a particular treatment, we will always take the time to make sure that you’re aware of how long it is likely to take.

Does a Smile Makeover Hurt?

No matter what kind of treatments are included as part of your smile makeover plan, we will always put your comfort first. We can use a local anesthetic to numb your mouth for specific procedures, such as removing enamel from your teeth for veneers. Note that a local anesthetic may not even be necessary for non-invasive cosmetic procedures such as cosmetic dental bonding.

In some cases, your mouth may be somewhat sore or sensitive for a few days after your treatment. This shouldn’t be anything you can’t manage with over-the-counter pain medication, and it should fade away on its own in a matter of days. For more extensive services, such as dental implants, we will give you detailed aftercare instructions for keeping post-treatment discomfort and other symptoms under control.

Do Smile Makeovers Have an Age Limit?

Smile makeovers are generally not recommended for very young children, but apart from that, there is no real age limit for the process. Teenagers, young adults, and seniors alike can all potentially benefit from many of the treatments that often make up a smile makeover plan. In fact, your oral health ultimately matters more than your age; before moving forward with the process, we’ll need to examine your smile to make sure there aren’t any cavities or other oral health issues that require treatment.

Please note that some individual treatments may not be suitable for patients under a certain age. For example, teeth whitening is not recommended for patients younger than 14; performing the treatment too early in life could lead to sensitivity.
