A Smile Makeover at Start Smiling is a personalised cosmetic treatment plan based on your concerns, clinical assessment and oral-health needs.

How a Smile Makeover can help you
Your Smile Makeover plan is built around your concerns, oral health, clinical assessment and the cosmetic treatment options that are appropriate for you.
Professional teeth whitening can be used where appropriate as part of a wider cosmetic plan.
Composite bonding or composite veneers can restore chipped or uneven edges with a conservative approach when suitable.
Porcelain veneers can rebuild shape and proportion when clinically appropriate and following assessment.
Teeth straightening, including SmileFast, may be recommended before or alongside restorative work if alignment affects the plan.
Gum contouring can harmonise the gum-to-tooth ratio where this is part of the aesthetic plan.
Bridges and other restorative options can be considered within an overall cosmetic and functional plan.
Planning takes the bite into account so cosmetic changes work with overall oral function.

All Smile Makeover assessments and treatments are provided from Start Smiling Dental Practice in Ingatestone, Essex.
A clinician will review your concerns, medical and dental history and perform a clinical assessment of teeth, gums and bite to form the basis of planning.
Photographs and records may be taken to support planning; digital records may be used where appropriate to help explain options and sequence.
The clinician will explain which approved options could meet your goals, including benefits, likely preparation and maintenance needs.
If oral-health or bite concerns are found, preparatory or alternative care may be discussed before elective cosmetic treatment proceeds.
Treatment may be delivered in stages, for example whitening, alignment, restorative work and then review, depending on the agreed plan.
Follow-up appointments and maintenance recommendations depend on the treatments chosen and the individual plan.
A Smile Makeover may suit adults who wish to change the appearance of their teeth while taking account of oral health and function. Suitability is determined by a clinical assessment that considers the teeth, gums and bite together with your preferences and any existing dental work.
Some cosmetic options are more conservative than others; where preserving natural tooth structure is a priority, composite bonding or composite veneers may be discussed. In other cases, porcelain veneers, crowns or bridges can provide durability and shape restoration, but all choices and timing are agreed after assessment.
