What Is Included in a Smile Makeover?

Your treatment plan may involve one or several cosmetic and restorative procedures, such as:

Teeth whitening to brighten stained or discoloured teeth
Dental veneers to improve shape, size, and symmetry
Composite bonding to repair chips, cracks, or gaps
Dental implants or bridges to replace missing teeth
Gum contouring for a balanced gum-to-tooth ratio
Orthodontic options for straighter teeth

The process begins with a consultation where we discuss the aspects of your smile you’d like to change, then outline suitable treatment options.

Common Smile Concerns Addressed

A smile makeover can correct or improve:

Tooth colour – replacing old silver fillings with tooth-coloured materials, or whitening dull enamel for a fresher, younger appearance.
Spacing and alignment – closing small gaps or straightening minor crowding with orthodontics, veneers, or bonding.
Missing teeth – restoring gaps with dental implants, bridges, or partial dentures.
Shape and proportion – bonding uneven edges, reshaping short teeth, or re-contouring a “gummy” smile.
Overall balance – ensuring teeth look harmonious with facial features, lips, and smile line.

Key Aesthetic Considerations

When planning your smile makeover, our dentists evaluate several visual factors to ensure your result is attractive and natural:

Tooth Colour

Whiter teeth suggest health and vitality, but restorations should also complement your skin tone and hair colour. We carefully select shades for veneers, crowns, and bonding that match your natural appearance.

Tooth Length

Longer teeth can create a more youthful look. Short teeth caused by wear or a gummy smile can be corrected with veneers, bonding, or gum reshaping.

Smile Line

The curve formed by the edges of your upper teeth should ideally follow the contour of your lower lip when you smile. This serves as a guide when designing your restorations.

Tooth Proportions

Balanced teeth are essential for an appealing smile. Typically, the two central front teeth are slightly longer and wider, with side teeth scaled proportionately.

Texture and Characterisation

Restorations can be personalised to appear softer, more delicate, or more bold, depending on whether a more feminine or masculine look is desired.

Previewing Your New Smile

We understand how important it is to feel confident in your treatment plan. That’s why we use several tools to give you an idea of the outcome before work begins:

Digital imaging software to simulate results
Wax mock-ups or temporary models to demonstrate changes
Before-and-after photos of past patients for comparison
Composite bonding mock-ups applied temporarily to your own teeth

These previews help you make informed decisions and ensure you are comfortable before committing.

Treatment Process

Consultation and assessment – evaluation of your teeth, gums, bite, and overall oral health.
Treatment planning – designing a customised plan that may combine cosmetic and restorative procedures.
Smile preview – showing mock-ups or digital imaging to confirm your goals.
Treatment stage – performing the selected procedures, sometimes in phases.
Follow-up and maintenance – regular check-ups to ensure results remain stable and long-lasting.

Cost of a Smile Makeover

The price of a smile makeover varies depending on:

The type and number of procedures involved
The materials used (for example, porcelain vs composite)
The complexity of your treatment plan

Cosmetic procedures are not usually covered by insurance, so most patients pay privately. During your consultation, you will receive a detailed treatment plan with transparent costs.

Maintaining Your Results

To ensure your new smile lasts as long as possible:

Brush twice daily with a soft-bristled toothbrush and fluoride toothpaste
Floss or use interdental brushes every day
Choose an alcohol-free mouthwash to protect bonding and fillings
Limit staining foods and drinks such as coffee, tea, and red wine
Avoid biting hard objects such as pens or bottle tops
Wear a night guard if you grind your teeth
Schedule regular dental check-ups and hygiene visits

Porcelain veneers and crowns typically last 10–15 years with proper care, while composite bonding may need refreshing after 5–7 years. Teeth whitening will also require occasional top-ups.

FAQs About Smile Makeovers

How long does a smile makeover take?

It depends on the procedures involved. Simple treatments such as whitening can be completed in one visit, while more comprehensive plans may take several months.
Is a smile makeover painful?

Most procedures are minimally invasive and carried out under local anaesthetic when necessary. Discomfort is usually mild and temporary.
Am I suitable for a smile makeover?

Almost anyone can have cosmetic dental treatment, but any underlying oral health issues such as gum disease must be treated first.
