Smile Makeovers

Smile makeovers enhance your mouth and teeth, whiten and improve the look of your smile, and can even involve removing tooth decay or implementing mouth reconstruction for a better, more aligned mouth. If you’re dissatisfied with your teeth and gums, a makeover can upgrade your smile and eliminate any dental problems you may have. Puresmile Earley Dental & Implants in Reading is a smile design centre experienced in creating perfect smiles.

A smile makeover is designed to enhance your smile. If you’re unhappy with certain aspects of your teeth, gums or smile then you’re a candidate for this special dental treatment. While the goal of the dental makeover is to improve the appearance of your smile it can also solve many ongoing dental issues while you’re undergoing treatment.

What Is a Smile Makeover?

Smile makeover or smile design is a cosmetic dental treatment or series of dental procedures, often performed on multiple teeth, to achieve a harmonious, beautiful look to the teeth and mouth.

How Do I Decide if I need a Dental Makeover?

Smile makeovers cosmetically enhance the look of your mouth and can help to prevent further tooth damage. Your Reading dentist will explore several options with you to ensure you’re getting the best care and look for your teeth. Because every mouth is unique, your dentist will examine your teeth, gums, and other oral features to find the options most suited to your teeth. Dentists will also compare your skin, hair, and existing tooth colour with your smile makeover options to select the colouring and shape that matches your individual complexion.

Reviewing your smile with a dentist will help you find the tooth and mouth issues you want to correct. Numerous dental concerns can be solved with a smile enhancement:

• Stained or discoloured teeth: Teeth with discoloration can make a mouth look older or less healthy. Having your teeth whitened and brightened can help you appear younger and healthier. A skilled dentist will evaluate your tone and complexion to select a shade that matches your face naturally and gives you a brighter, more confident smile.
• A ‘gummy’ smile, uneven gum line: An uneven gum line can be re-contoured to improve the lines and look of a smile.
• Cracked, chipped, broken or uneven teeth: Damaged or cracked teeth can be cosmetically bonded, allowing the teeth to look healthier and blemish-free. Teeth without breaks or unevenness can make an appearance friendlier, younger, and more welcoming.
• Tooth decay: If you’ve had your teeth evaluated and discover you have tooth decay, you can work with your dentist to discuss the options for your mouth. Crowns, veneers, and bridges are all possible options for those who have tooth decay and want an enhanced smile. Your dentist will remove the decayed and damaged parts of the tooth and select the best makeover option for creating a better-looking smile.
• Eroded teeth: It’s best to cover eroded teeth to prevent sensitivity, preserve the structure, and reduce yellowing. Preserving the remaining tooth through dental bonding, porcelain veneers, or crowns provides the protection necessary for halting further damage and boosts the look of the teeth.
• Spaces between teeth, overbite, open bite, crossbite, crooked teeth: Crooked or misaligned teeth can be straightened and corrected with Invisalign and orthodontics. Veneers may be used to cover and improve the teeth and make a smile appear more aligned and even.
• Missing teeth: Having missing teeth can increase your chances of tooth decay, cause issues with your bite and impact the appearance of your smile. Your dentist can replace your missing teeth with bridges, partial dentures, or dental implants to restore your smile and dental health.

Smile treatments can involve many different procedures and tooth alignment and coverage options. Depending on the damage and alignment of the teeth, your dentist may recommend corrective orthodontics, veneers, composite bonding, or teeth whitening. Your experienced dentist will work with you to develop a custom treatment plan that gives you your desired smile makeover.

Cosmetic Dentistry Options

The dental procedures that may be incorporated into smile design and makeover are broad. There’s widespread belief that white fillings, veneers, and crowns are the only treatment option for all unsightly dental issues. Often patients go online looking for ‘porcelain veneers for gaps before and after photos’ or for crooked teeth, and when they come to us, they’re pleasantly surprised they don’t have to file down their natural, healthy teeth to achieve a celebrity smile.

Smile Makeover for Gaps, Crooked Teeth, Overbite, Open Bite, Cross Bite

Crowns, Veneers, and Bridges used to be the only option for adults not willing to go through the embarrassment of wearing braces to fix any issues related to malocclusion. However, Invisalign has now become the go-to option for teeth straightening and although it’s a lengthy process, typically, 6-12 months, it’s well worth the effort. And as recognised Diamond Invisalign provider we have vast experience in delivering successful Invisalign cases.

Cosmetic Dentistry for Small Teeth and Gummy Smile

If you have little teeth, you may have a gummy smile or your teeth may be small and out of proportion. A smile makeover can create larger teeth with cosmetic gum reshaping to raise your gum line and porcelain veneers to increase the size of small teeth. It’s a fast procedure completed in two to three visits.

Smile Makeover for Long Teeth

Gum Grafting is strongly recommended for those who’ve experienced receding gums, where a part of your tooth’s root is exposed. A gum graft procedure can treat one or more areas of recession. Often teeth like this may be covered with a composite bonding, tooth-coloured filling. However, this treatment is neither permanent nor aesthetic. The bonding material changes colour as you drink and eat coloured food and the long root is still there. Bonding eliminates the sensitivity that may be experienced when the root surface gets exposed. Gingival grafting treats the cause, the problem and the cosmetic concerns with one easy predictable and long-lasting procedure.

Cosmetic Dentistry with Crowns and Onlays

Our cosmetic dentists at Puresmile Earley Dental & Implants in Reading use porcelain ceramic crowns and onlays to resolve tooth issues such as chips, broken teeth, uneven edges, change the shape, colour and size of teeth and restore missing teeth. We use the concept of ‘adhesive dentistry’ to preserve as much of the original tooth as possible. Porcelain restorations are state-of-the-art restorative material we use to create the radiant, natural and translucent smile that’s universally popular with our patients.
