What is a smile makeover?

A smile makeover isn't a single procedure. It's a custom-built plan that combines two or more treatments to address everything you want to change about your smile, in the right order, at the right pace, for the right budget.

What a makeover can include

Every makeover is different. Yours might include one or more of these:

  • Professional whitening — a brighter, whiter starting point for everything that follows.
  • Invisalign — straighten crowded, gapped, or shifted teeth without metal braces.
  • Veneers — thin custom-made covers that reshape, recolor, or repair the front-facing teeth.
  • Bonding — fix small chips, gaps, or discoloration in a single visit, no shaping of the natural tooth.
  • Crowns — full-coverage caps for teeth that are damaged or worn down.
  • Dental implants — permanent replacements for missing teeth.
  • Gum reshaping — even out a "gummy" smile so your teeth show in proportion.

Who a smile makeover is for

People come in for a makeover for all kinds of reasons:

  • You're getting married, graduating, or celebrating something big and want to feel your best.
  • You've never loved your smile and you're finally ready to do something about it.
  • You're hiding your teeth in photos or covering your mouth when you laugh.
  • You've had cosmetic work done before that's aged poorly and want it redone right.
  • Years of wear, coffee, or tea have caught up with your teeth and you want a fresh start.

No judgment. Whatever brings you in, we'll listen first, then build a plan around what you actually want, not what we want to sell you.

What to expect

  1. Consultation. We sit down and talk about what you want to change. Show us photos of smiles you love. Tell us what's bothered you for years. There are no wrong answers.
  2. Smile design. We map out the combination of treatments that would get you there, with a clear order and timeline. You see the plan before we start.
  3. Quote. Complete, all-in pricing. We'll break down what insurance covers, what financing options work, and how to phase it if needed.
  4. Treatment. We start in the order that makes sense (often whitening or Invisalign first, then the more permanent work). Each step has its own appointments and you'll know exactly what's coming.
  5. Reveal. When everything is done, you'll see your new smile in the mirror. We hear "I can't stop smiling" a lot at this part.
  6. Maintenance. Regular cleanings, occasional touch-ups, and care advice to keep your makeover looking great for years.

Cost and financing

Because every makeover is custom, pricing varies a lot. We'll always give you a clear, complete quote before any work begins, and we'll never push you into more than you actually want.

  • Most insurance plans don't cover purely cosmetic work, but they may cover restorative pieces like crowns or implants. We'll figure that out for you.
  • Third-party financing through CareCredit, Alphaeon, and Cherry spreads the cost into monthly payments. Alphaeon is built specifically for cosmetic and elective care.
  • HSA and FSA accepted for the qualifying parts of your treatment.
  • We can phase your makeover over months or years to fit your budget.

Smile makeover FAQs

How long does a smile makeover take?

It depends on what's involved. A whitening-and-bonding refresh can be done in a few visits over a couple of weeks. A full makeover that includes Invisalign and implants is usually 6 to 18 months. We'll give you a realistic timeline at your consultation.

Will I see what my new smile will look like before we start?

Yes. We use digital previews and mockups so you can see your projected results before committing. If you're getting veneers, you'll usually also see a physical preview before the final ones go in.

Will it look natural?

That's the goal. A great makeover doesn't look fake. It looks like the best version of your own smile, shaped to fit your face, your skin tone, and the way you talk and laugh.

Can I do this in phases instead of all at once?

Absolutely. Many of our makeover patients do it in stages over months or years. We'll plan the order so each step looks great on its own, even before the next one is done.

How long does it last?

Whitening typically needs touch-ups every year or two. Veneers and crowns last 10 to 20 years with good care. Implants can last a lifetime. We'll go over maintenance for each part of your makeover.

I'm self-conscious about my teeth. Will I feel judged?

No. We see all kinds of teeth, in all conditions, every single day. There's nothing you can show us that we haven't seen before. Our job is to listen and help, not judge.
