How Does a Smile Makeover Work?
A smile makeover is a comprehensive treatment that is designed to give a patient their dream smile over the course of a few easy appointments. How does one actually work?
Every smile makeover is customized to suit each patient’s unique situation. Before your dentist recommends any treatment, they’ll sit down with you and talk about your wants, needs, long-term goals, and budget. Using this information and the observations gathered from an oral exam, they can then put together the strategy for your particular smile makeover. You’ll have a chance to go over this entire plan with Dr. Mohr or Dr. Ariel before beginning, and once we have your approval, then it’s just a matter of time before you see a beautiful set of teeth in the mirror.
Your Smile Makeover May Include Some (But Not All) of the Following Procedures:
- Porcelain Veneers
- All-Porcelain Crowns
- Cosmetic Bonding
- Teeth Whitening
- Gum Recontouring
- Dental Implants
- Implant Dentures
The idea is to use a combination of treatments to improve both the overall look and functionality of your teeth so that you can enjoy the best of everything. If you have any outstanding dental problems (gum disease, cavities, etc.), these will be addressed before your dentist begins the cosmetic portion of your makeover.
How Long Does a Smile Makeover Take?
As with every aspect of a smile makeover, it really depends on you. If you only need one or two procedures, the entire process could potentially be completed in just two or three appointments. However, if you require more extensive work, it may take a few months. In these situations, our team is happy to offer flexible scheduling so you’re able to fit your appointments seamlessly into your normal routine.

Smile Makeover FAQs
How Much Does a Smile Makeover Cost?
The cost of your smile makeover will depend on which procedures are involved in it, as well as the extent of those procedures. Our team will be happy to provide you with an itemized estimate for the cost of your new look when you visit us for your consultation. Also, keep in mind that while dental insurance does not cover purely cosmetic treatments, it might help to mitigate the cost of restorative services that will improve the look of your smile.
How Long Will My Smile Makeover Results Last?
Dr. Mohr and Dr. Ariel are focused on providing only the highest-quality cosmetic dentistry. Therefore, as long as you care for your new smile, you can expect it to stand the test of time. Porcelain crowns and veneers typically tend to last for a decade or longer, while dental implants may endure for a lifetime. Our team will provide you with detailed guidance to help you care for your cosmetic dental work, so it maintains its beauty and strength for as long as possible.
Am I a Candidate for a Smile Makeover?
Most patients who dislike their teeth are candidates for a smile makeover. However, if you have significant oral health problems, you might need to undergo full-mouth reconstruction instead. Full-mouth reconstruction and smile makeovers are often thought of as the same thing, but there is a difference between the two processes. While a smile makeover focuses primarily on improving the aesthetics of teeth, full-mouth reconstruction is geared more toward restoring oral health and producing a beautiful smile.
Can I Preview the Results of My Smile Makeover?
Yes! We use advanced software to let patients preview what their smile will look like after they undergo cosmetic treatments. When you see your digitally designed smile, feel free to give us your thoughts so we can incorporate your preferences into your treatment plan.
Is a Smile Makeover Painful?
Dr. Mohr and Dr. Ariel want our patients to be as comfortable as possible. This is why they use a gentle touch, state-of-the-art technology, anesthesia, and in some cases, sedation. You can expect to feel little to nothing during your procedures. It’s normal to have a bit of soreness or swelling after certain treatments, but these are usually mild and do not last very long.
Is There an Upper Age Limit for a Smile Makeover?
No, there is no upper age limit for a smile makeover! Older patients can get this treatment no matter what decade they might be in. Often, seniors enjoy more benefits from a makeover because the process involves taking care of common dental issues, like tooth loss and gum disease, as well as enhancing the appearance of teeth. With our team, it’s never too late to get the bright and confident look you’ve always wanted!
How Long Will My Smile Makeover Take?
The length of time it takes to complete your smile makeover will depend on the number and types of procedures necessary to help you achieve your goals. Some makeovers are relatively short and only require a few appointments, while others (especially those that involve dental implants) may take closer to a year. When you come in for your complimentary consultation, we’ll discuss all of the details, including the timeline, so you know exactly what to expect each step of the way.
Will Dental Insurance Cover My Smile Makeover?
Most dental insurance plans will provide some coverage for procedures that are considered restorative (i.e., crowns, fillings, and gum disease therapy), but they are much less likely to pay for treatments that are cosmetically focused, like teeth whitening and veneers. Every plan’s benefits are different, so be sure to read your policy, talk to your provider, or call our team so we can go over the details and give you a better idea of how much you’ll be expected to pay out-of-pocket for your makeover. We’ll do everything we can to help you maximize your benefits!
