When you look in the mirror, are you happy with your smile? Or do you see a few things you’d like to fix, such as stains, chips, or misshapen teeth?

Many people have concerns about the appearance of their smile, and they turn to a cosmetic dentist for help. Cosmetic dentists can repair common issues and help you obtain a healthy, bright smile with a smile makeover.

What is a smile makeover?

A smile makeover is a unique cosmetic dentistry procedure customized to meet your needs. It typically includes several treatments, like teeth whitening or veneers, to achieve your desired look. A smile makeover can also include restorative procedures, like dental implants if you need to replace a tooth.

Smile makeovers provide many benefits. In fact, you may not be aware of what’s possible unless you visit a qualified cosmetic dentist who can help you identify the procedures that are appropriate for you.

Cosmetic Procedures in a Smile Makeover

The cosmetic procedures involved in a smile makeover will vary depending on your needs. Here are a few we may include.

Porcelain Veneers

We apply porcelain veneers to damaged teeth. If you have chips, cracks, discoloration, or small teeth that need reshaping, porcelain veneers can restore their appearance. 

Once applied, dental veneers look like natural teeth, but they correct problems that damage your smile. Porcelain veneers can last ten years or longer, making them a long-term solution that will positively impact your appearance.

Same Day Crowns

If you have a single tooth that needs repair due to a chip or the actual shape of the tooth, a same day crown is beneficial. Same day crowns can be directly applied to the tooth, protecting it from future damage and providing an easy solution that’s time efficient. 

Our office uses CEREC technology to customize your crown for the perfect fit, with no need to wait weeks for delivery.

Teeth Whitening

Over time, teeth can take on a dull, yellow appearance that blights your smile. Teeth whitening can reduce and eliminate unwanted stains caused by particular foods and drinks, like coffee, red wine, and chocolate. You’ll have a choice between at-home and in-office whitening.

At Farless Dental Group, we offer both Zoom! and KöR whitening. Both solutions provide premier teeth whitening that will safely brighten your smile.

Teeth Alignment

Sometimes, teeth can shift out of alignment in your adult years, even if you had corrective braces as a teenager. In some cases, you can correct misalignment with clear aligner treatments. Typically, people wear clear aligners daily but take them out when eating or attending important events. 

With clear aligners, you don’t need to worry about the inconvenience of metal braces. There are no monthly orthodontic checkups to undergo, and your aligners are invisible to others.

The benefits of teeth alignment extend past simple cosmetics. Realigning your teeth can make it easier to care for them. Flossing will be much more manageable and reduce your risk of developing cavities where teeth are too tight or cross over one another.

We offer two types of clear aligners: SureSmile and ClearCorrect. Both treatments are effective and provide similar results, straight teeth. Farless Dental Group can help you select the aligners that are most appropriate for your needs.

Gum Contouring

Sometimes, gums can extend far past the root of the tooth, making teeth appear much shorter than they actually are. Many people believe they’re stuck with a gummy smile, but it’s entirely possible to resize the gums and expose more of your natural teeth through gum contouring.

Gum contouring adds balance between the teeth and the gums. At Farless Dental Group, we use a soft tissue dental laser that gently reshapes the gums. Our laser gum contouring technique has a very short healing period, making the treatment seamless and easy.

Dental Bonding

You may benefit from dental bonding if you have just a few minor flaws in your smile. Dental bonding involves placing resin on your tooth to cover the flaw. For instance, if you have a misshapen tooth, we can apply the resin to better align it with your other teeth. 

Dental bonding is a simple process that doesn’t require any extensive preparation or removal of tooth enamel. For the best results, you can combine teeth whitening and dental bonding for a healthy and polished smile.
