Dental Care Plan After the Makeover
The procedures in a smile makeover require regular oral hygiene care and may need maintenance over time. For example, teeth whitening is not a permanent treatment. Patients will need touch-up treatments to maintain their results. While it is always important to practice good oral hygiene, it is especially important after a smile makeover.
Proper maintenance and care will help prevent future dental issues and previous problems from reappearing. Our team will provide patients with tips and instructions on how to maintain their new smile after. Tips for maintaining a newly restored smile include brushing and flossing multiple times daily and visiting the dentist for professional cleanings on a regular basis. Certain procedures require special care, so it is important to follow the instructions precisely.

Factors Leading to a Smile Makeover
People need smile makeovers for many different reasons. Developing bad habits as a younger person can damage the teeth. Some medications, such as tetracycline, weaken or discolor teeth. Trauma to the mouth is a common cause of injury and damage to the gums and teeth. Whereas, genetics also plays a part in how teeth and gums appear.
A smile should look natural and effortless. Dentists can consider multiple procedures to help patients achieve this. If one treatment does not work for a patient, we can recommend a different one for the desired results.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q. Is a smile makeover the same as full mouth rejuvenation?
A. No, it is not. Full mouth rejuvenation uses many of the same cosmetic methods as a makeover, but it also consists of general and restorative services, such as TMJ or gum disease treatment. A smile makeover is more cosmetic based and is a less extensive process.
Q. How long does a complete smile makeover take?
A. Each smile makeover is customized to the patient. It depends on the procedures that are needed to finish the process. Many procedures can be completed in one or two office visits. It is common for patients to receive one or two treatment options at a single appointment.
Q. Is there an age limit on a smile makeover?
A. Adults of all ages can receive cosmetic dentistry to improve their appearance. Seniors who want to improve their oral health and maintain a youthful look often turn to cosmetic dentistry. Professional dental care can help maintain a smile at any age.
Q. Who are the appropriate candidates for a smile makeover?
A. Anyone who wants to improve the appearance of their smile is a good candidate. It is important to be in good overall health before undertaking cosmetic dental procedures. A dentist needs to assess each patient's particular needs and goals.
Q. Will dental insurance cover the cost of a smile makeover?
A. Dental insurance plans may not cover cosmetic dentistry. However, a smile makeover often includes restorative procedures, such as crowns that repair broken teeth. Dental insurance may cover a portion of those costs.
Q. Will I need dental X-rays before a smile makeover?
A. It is recommended that teeth be evaluated before undergoing a smile makeover. Dental X-rays help a dentist find tooth decay and cavities that will need to be repaired before getting cosmetic procedures. According to the American Dental Association, the radiation exposure from dental X-rays is low, and the potential for harmful effects is minimal.
