What Is a Smile Makeover?

Over time, injuries, dental issues, and other factors can affect the appearance of your teeth. A smile makeover at Reflections Dental is a customized treatment plan combining cosmetic and restorative dental procedures to enhance both the look and health of your smile. This may include teeth whitening (either at-home or in-office), veneers, teeth realignment, bonding and contouring, and replacing old metal fillings with tooth-colored ones. Your smile makeover could also involve dental restorations such as bridges or crowns to replace missing teeth. If you’re ready to refresh your smile and improve your oral health, schedule a consultation with Dr. Donald Hildebrandt at our Peoria, AZ office to create your personalized plan.

What Can I Expect from a Smile Makeover?

Every smile makeover is tailored to your unique needs. Dr. Hildebrandt will explain what to expect throughout your treatment, including how many appointments you might need. He will help you schedule your visits to complete the various procedures in a convenient timeline. Some treatments may require local anesthesia, and if you have dental anxiety, additional sedation options are available to keep you relaxed. Throughout your makeover, Dr. Hildebrandt and the team will ensure your comfort and answer any questions you may have.

What To Expect After a Smile Makeover

After completing your smile makeover, maintaining your results involves a consistent home oral care routine, including daily brushing and flossing. Regular dental exams and professional cleanings at Reflections Dental will allow Dr. Hildebrandt to monitor your oral health. With proper care, your smile makeover results can last for many years. Periodic touch-ups like teeth whitening may help refresh your smile, and veneers or restorations might require repair or replacement over time, which will be discussed during your visits.

Who Is a Good Candidate for a Smile Makeover?

A smile makeover can benefit anyone looking to improve the appearance of their teeth or combine multiple cosmetic and restorative treatments. Dr. Hildebrandt will tailor your smile makeover to address your specific concerns and goals. This may include teeth whitening to remove discoloration and stains, veneers or bonding and contouring to adjust tooth length and shape, and close minor gaps. Dental restorations like crowns and bridges might also be recommended to replace missing teeth. At Reflections Dental, we create custom restorations that blend seamlessly with your natural teeth.

Before beginning cosmetic procedures, Dr. Hildebrandt will ensure your teeth and gums are healthy. Any underlying oral health issues, such as gum disease or dental malocclusion, will need to be treated first.
