Is A Smile Makeover Right For You?
A Smile Makeover may be appropriate if you want to change the appearance of your teeth, correct unevenness, address staining or harmonise restorations. Suitability depends on oral-health, the condition of teeth and gums, and your functional bite, all of which are assessed at consultation.
Some patients need preparatory care, such as stabilising gum health or addressing other dental issues, before elective cosmetic work proceeds. The mix of treatments varies: some plans use only one option like whitening, while others combine whitening, composite bonding, veneers or straightening.
Start Smiling aims to preserve healthy tooth structure where clinically appropriate, and we discuss costs, timings and any sensible alternatives after assessment so you can decide with clear information.
