Which Treatments Does a Smile Makeover Include?

If you’re interested in a smile makeover, it may help to know what services and treatments makeovers include.

Here at Silicon Valley Dental Associates in Sunnyvale, California, the answer is: It depends.

We’re not trying to be vague. The truth is that no two smile makeovers are the same because no two patients are the same.

Whether you just want teeth whitening or you need implants and cosmetic reconstruction, we customize your smile makeover to your unique situation, so you get the exact look you’ve dreamed of. Here’s how it works:

What are common treatments for a smile makeover?

The reasons people consider a smile makeover are many and varied.

One patient may just want to restore whiteness to their stained or discolored teeth. Another may need to replace a missing tooth and align a few crooked teeth while they’re at it. Yet another may be looking to repair damage caused by an accident.

Whether you’re looking for a partial smile transformation or a complete makeover, our services are customized to meet your needs, your goals, and your budget. 

Services that your makeover at Silicon Valley Dental Associates may include are:

• In-office teeth whitening
• Professional take-home teeth whitening trays 
• Porcelain veneers
• Tooth-colored fillings
• Crowns
• Dental implants

Some of these treatments can be delivered at the same time. Others, such as dental implants, may have to be done in phases, depending on what you need. 

What can you expect from a smile makeover?

A consultation with one of our expert team members helps you determine the pros and cons of each treatment and develop a plan with the treatments that work best for you. 

We discuss problems such as filling in the gaps where you have missing teeth, fixing alignment and spacing issues, and even matching new teeth or veneers to the natural color of your existing teeth. 

We perform a complete oral exam of your mouth and take exterior and interior pictures. We may even take digital and 3D X-rays and create models of your teeth. This imaging helps us determine any problems that may not be visible at first glance.

Once we’ve done all this, we discuss which treatments might best fit your needs. Some services, such as teeth whitening, can be finished relatively quickly, while dental implants or veneers may take a couple of visits.
