Smile Makeover in New York, NY

Throughout your life, you may have experienced accidents, dental problems, and other difficulties that made your smile less than perfect. A smile makeover at SmilesNY Cosmetic and Implant Dentistry is a personalized treatment plan of cosmetic and restorative dental procedures that will help improve the appearance of your teeth — and the overall health of your mouth. A smile makeover could include teeth whitening (at-home or in-office treatments), cosmetic veneers, straightening, bonding and contouring, and replacing old metal fillings with composite resin or porcelain. Your smile makeover could also include dental restorations like crowns or bridges to replace a missing tooth or teeth. If you are interested in improving your smile so it's beautiful and healthy, schedule a consultation at our office in New York, NY to get your personalized plan.

A personalized smile makeover designed by our experienced team at SmilesNY can help you achieve the brilliant, beautiful smile you want with benefits like:

• Addressing multiple dental issues
• Offering customizable options
• Treating minor to major dental problems
• Improving speech
• Creating long-lasting, natural-looking results
• Boosting self-image and confidence
• Effective for adults of any age

A smile makeover can help if you want to improve the appearance of your teeth, or if you need several restorative or cosmetic procedures. Your dental specialist will customize your smile makeover plan to fulfill your concerns and goals, but it may consist of teeth whitening to correct stains and discoloration on your enamel. Other cosmetic treatments that might be part of your plan are veneers or bonding and contouring to improve the shape and length of your teeth and to cover small gaps between your teeth. Dental restorations (crowns and bridges) may be needed to replace a missing tooth or teeth. At SmilesNY, we use custom-made restorations so they blend with your regular teeth for a seamless appearance.

Before you have cosmetic procedures, you will need to be evaluated to make sure your teeth and gums are healthy. If you have any prohibitive oral health problems like a misaligned bite or gum disease, this will need to be addressed first.

Every smile makeover is customized, so your dentist will go over what to expect during your treatment plan, including how many appointments you may need. They will help you plan your appointment(s) to complete each one of the procedures of your smile makeover. Local anesthesia may be used during some of the procedures; however, other sedation choices can be included if you require help relaxing due to dental fears or anxieties. Throughout your smile makeover, our team will be accessible to answer any questions you may have.

Once your smile makeover is finished, you should maintain the health and appearance of your teeth with a good home oral care routine (both brushing and flossing every day). In addition to everyday care, you should make appointments for dental exams and cleanings at SmilesNY so we can track your oral health. With appropriate maintenance, the results of your smile makeover should last for many years. Touch-up treatments every few years, like teeth whitening, may help to refresh your results. Veneers and restorations may also need to be repaired or replaced, which can all be discussed during your appointments.

At your consultation, our team will help develop a smile makeover that fits both your needs and your budget. They can estimate the cost of your treatment plan and explain payment methods we accept, including medical financing. The cosmetic procedures in a smile makeover are typically not covered by insurance, but some restorations might be partially covered. A member of our team will call your insurance provider to determine your precise coverage and out-of-pocket costs.

What does a smile makeover include?

How long does a smile makeover take?

How many procedures will be necessary to achieve your aesthetic dental goals will determine how long your smile makeover will take. A typical dental visit is between 30 – 90 minutes. You may need multiple appointments to complete your smile makeover.

Does a smile makeover hurt?

No, having a smile makeover isn’t painful. Porcelain veneers are a common part of a smile makeover, and there isn’t any pain or discomfort involved in having them placed. Some of the other treatments like teeth straightening, whitening, or bonding and contouring may cause some people to experience minor sensitivity as their teeth adjust to the changes, but it typically only lasts for a short while.

We can help you get a smile you'll enjoy showing off with a customized smile makeover.
