Is A Smile Makeover Right For You?
A Smile Makeover may be suitable if you have cosmetic concerns that can be addressed by treatments described during assessment. Suitability depends on the condition of your teeth, gums and bite and on your personal goals.
Some cases need preparatory care or alternatives before elective cosmetic work; your clinician will explain whether treatments such as crowns or other restorative care are recommended prior to veneers or bonding.
Timescales, appointment numbers and maintenance needs vary: whitening and composite work are often quicker to complete, while veneers or orthodontic approaches may require more planning and staged treatment. Your plan will be bespoke to you.
