What Does a Smile Makeover Involve?

A smile makeover is a series of treatments that can correct a variety of dental flaws so you can have a stunning, healthy-looking smile. At your consultation, your dentist will create a personalized treatment plan that will address all of your concerns.

Each patient has different needs and goals, and these treatments can be customized to suit each patient specifically. We can use a combination of procedures to help you achieve your ideal smile. Some of the most common treatments involved in a beautiful smile makeover include:

Dental Bonding

A dental bonding procedure is one of the simplest and least expensive ways to improve your smile. During the procedure, a tooth-colored resin material is applied and molded to fit your tooth. This material will provide an improved appearance as well as protection from further damage such as tooth decay or chips.

Porcelain Veneers

A smile makeover can involve one or more cosmetic dental procedures, including porcelain veneers. When a patient is interested in correcting their smile and wants to improve the look of their teeth, a dentist may recommend veneers. These thin shells of dental porcelain are fitted over the front of teeth to cover imperfections and create a uniform-looking smile. Veneers can correct the appearance of chips, gaps, and misshapen teeth, as well as minor misalignments. They are typically made of a strong ceramic material that can be color-matched to blend perfectly with the natural enamel of surrounding teeth. 

Teeth Whitening

Some of our cosmetic dentistry patients choose teeth whitening when they want to refresh their smile. We offer both in-office and at-home whitening treatments, as well as custom fitted whitening trays. Patients interested in an at-home whitening treatment can schedule a consultation appointment to discuss their needs with our dentist in Walnut Creek, CA. A custom-fitted tray is made that can be worn comfortably at home for a few weeks before your next visit with us. Patients who want faster results usually opt for in-office whitening or a combination of the two methods. We encourage you to discuss your options during your consultation appointment.

Invisalign®

Many patients avoid seeking treatment because they worry it will look and feel obvious or unnatural. Fortunately, this is not the case for many smile makeover treatments. In fact, Invisalign is one of the most discreet options on the market. The clear aligners are nearly invisible when worn, meaning you can straighten your teeth without anyone knowing about it. Most people won't even notice you're wearing Invisalign unless you tell them!
