What does your smile makeover do for
you?
First off, your smile should fit in
with the rest of your appearance, so when we design your new smile,
we take into account your lips, gum tissue, teeth, hair color, skin
tone, and the general appearance of your face.
Based on those, we'll make some recommendations,
which may include:
- Replacing missing teeth: your
options include dental implants, bridges, or partial dentures.
- Correcting teeth alignment: we
can improve the appearance with veneers, or correct gaps or overlaps
in teeth with orthodontics.
- Optimal tooth coloring: if
you've got stained teeth, we can whiten them. If you've got
old silver or amalgam dental fillings, we can replace them with tooth-colored
composites that look real.
- Contouring: if your teeth
are uneven, we can bond them so they'll look better. We can
also re-contour "gummy" smiles to make your smile look better.
Customizing Your
Smile Makeover
Every smile is different, so we customize
your smile makeover to suit you. WeÕll ask you some questions
like,
- What do you like about
your smile?
- What don't you like
about your smile?
- What do you like about
your teeth?
- What do you not like about
your teeth?
Based on your answers and our Dentists'
professional opinions, weÕll work with you to come up with a personalized
treatment plan. This plan will be created to achieve the smile
makeover you want.
Teeth length and form are two things
weÕll want to discuss, since they can significantly affect your smileÉ
Tooth Length
As we age, wear and tear combine
to produce shorter teeth. A gummy smile can also have the same
effect, by causing teeth to look shorter. However, long teeth
make you look more youthful, and yes, we can make your teeth look longer!
Your Complete Smile Makeover treatment
may involve reshaping and lengthening your front central teeth using
bonding or veneers, if your teeth are too short.
To correct a gummy smile, Our Dentist
may recommend that you choose a treatment that involves changing the
gum line to lengthen your teethÕs appearance.
Lengthening your teeth may improve
your overall appearance. For instance, if you have a round face,
lengthening your teeth can make your face look thinner.
Tooth form
When people see dark, stained, chipped,
worn out and missing teeth, they assume you're older. But when
they see a nicely-shaped smile with bright, white teeth, they think
you look younger.
During your consultation with one of our dentists, he or she may suggest Smile Makeover treatment for...
- Missing teeth
- Discolored teeth
- Poorly-shaped teeth
Treatment may include restorative
techniques, such asÉ
- Teeth whitening
- Implants
- Crowns
- Veneers
Our dentists will carefully and thoughtfully
evaluate your face and skin tone and hair color so that he can make
the most appropriate shade selection for teeth whitening and veneers.
You can maintain a youthful look
by choosing cosmetic bonding or veneers to improve the looks of worn
and chipped teeth, and by selecting dental implants, bridges, or partials
to replace missing teeth.
