Smile Makeover FAQs
A smile makeover can transform the worst aesthetic issues into a thing of beauty. However, it's a big investment, so it's normal to have some concerns. Dr. Virginia Gregory will explain everything each step of the way, so you feel confident during the road ahead. While you wait for your consultation, here are the answers to the most frequently asked questions about smile makeovers to help determine if it's right for you.
Which Procedures Are Right for Me?
A smile makeover isn't a single procedure. It involves specific services tailored to your needs. Since every mouth is as unique as fingerprints, there's no way to know which procedures are right for you without first examining your mouth. Dr. Gregory will learn more about your goals and assess your mouth to create a personalized treatment plan, which may include:
- Teeth Whitening
- Dental Implants
- Porcelain Veneers
- Invisalign
- All-Ceramic Crowns
How Long Does a Smile Makeover Take?
There isn't a set timeline for a smile makeover because every situation differs. Many factors will affect how long it will take to reach your goals, like the procedures necessary. Some treatments can be performed in a single visit, like teeth whitening or all-ceramic crowns. However, other treatments can take multiple appointments or several months, like Invisalign or dental implants. You may also need a little prep work before starting your transformation. Dr. Gregory will explain exactly how long the process will take during your consultation. Our office understands your time is valuable, which is why we embrace the latest technologies and techniques to streamline dental care. You'll save time without compromising quality or aesthetics.
Does a Smile Makeover Hurt?
Dr. Gregory keeps your comfort a top priority. A local numbing agent can be used to block any pain. You might feel some unusual sensations or a little pressure, but you won't have any outright discomfort. After the effects of any numbing agents dissipate, your mouth might be a little tender for a couple of days. You can manage it using an OTC pain reliever and eating soft foods. Dr. Gregory may have additional aftercare instructions, depending on your procedure.
How Long Does a Smile Makeover Last?
Your cosmetic dentist designs treatment plans to provide long-lasting results. However, various factors will affect the lifespan of your smile, like the procedure used. Some treatments can last for many years, while others can thrive for a lifetime, like dental implants. You can get the most from your investment by committing to your oral hygiene. Brush your teeth twice daily, floss every night, and add an antimicrobial mouthwash to your routine. Break any bad habits that can damage your results, like chewing on your fingernails or smoking. Visit your dentist every 6 months for a cleaning and checkup. The right care at home and from a dentist will ensure your new smile lasts its longest.
