Is A Smile Makeover Right For You?
A Smile Makeover may suit adults who wish to change aspects of their smile for cosmetic reasons, but clinical assessment determines suitability. Options include professional teeth whitening, composite bonding or composite veneers, porcelain veneers, teeth straightening such as SmileFast, crowns or bridges, and gum contouring.
Some patients require preparatory or alternative care before elective cosmetic treatment; for example, untreated gum disease or bite issues would be addressed first. Timings, appointment counts and total cost vary with the treatments selected and case complexity, so a consultation provides the best personal estimate.
