How a Smile Makeover works at a glance
Your Smile Makeover plan is built around your concerns, oral health, clinical assessment and the cosmetic treatment options that are appropriate for you.
Whitening can be part of a wider plan to address staining and support the overall aesthetic result where appropriate.
Composite bonding can repair chips and reshape teeth conservatively when suitable for your goals.
Porcelain veneers are an option to alter shape and appearance but may involve preparation of the natural tooth surface depending on the case.
Teeth straightening, including SmileFast, can be included as part of a staged Smile Makeover when alignment affects the final result.
Gum contouring may be used where altering gum shape supports a more balanced smile appearance.
Start Smiling aims to preserve healthy tooth structure where clinically appropriate when planning cosmetic options.
Review, maintenance and aftercare arrangements are discussed for the specific treatments included in your individual plan.

You will meet the clinician to explain your goals and for an oral-health and smile assessment that considers teeth, gums and bite.
Photographs and records are taken where appropriate to inform detailed planning and consider existing restorations and bite.
The clinician explains which options may suit your goals, with pros, cons and likely sequencing for the individual plan.
If oral-health or bite issues are identified, preparatory or alternative care may be discussed before elective cosmetic treatment.
Treatment proceeds in agreed stages according to the personalised plan and the procedures selected.
Follow-up, maintenance and any necessary reviews are arranged based on the treatments provided.
Whether a Smile Makeover is right for you depends on your individual goals, oral health and any bite considerations found at assessment; some people need only a single treatment, while others require a combination of procedures.
Veneers, bonding and straightening each have different preparation, timing and maintenance needs, and preparatory or alternative care may be recommended if clinical issues are present; costs and likely timescales are explained after a detailed consultation and personalised plan.
