There are both cosmetic and restorative benefits to having a smile makeover done. Full mouth reconstruction might be needed for those who are missing a lot of teeth or those who have always had functional problems with the way they bite and chew or the way their teeth fit together. In addition, a full mouth reconstruction/smile makeover, might be necessary for someone who has always been unhappy with the appearance of their smile.

The best way for us to determine if you might benefit from a smile makeover is with an exam. This allows us to see if you need reconstruction and if so, which procedures are right for you. Depending on the type of work that needs to be done, you can expect to undergo treatment for several weeks or months from start to finish. Most makeovers are ideal for adult patients who are healthy enough to undergo these treatments. Patients with the following conditions might consider a full mouth reconstruction or a smile makeover: 

• Having a lot of older dental restorations that have deteriorated over time
• Having functional problems due to the way you bite or the way your teeth fit together
• Having excessive wear to the teeth causing functional problems
• Missing several teeth effecting eating and chewing
• Having several chipped or stained teeth and want a more esthetic smile
  

The process starts with a consultation. We get to know you and your unique needs to see what type of work needs to be done. Then, we schedule you to begin treatment according to your goals. Some of the more common procedures performed during full mouth reconstruction and/or a smile makeover include whitening, bonding, veneers, crown and bridge work, orthodontic treatment, dental implants, and implant supported dentures. Depending on your individual needs, you can expect to undergo treatment for anywhere from just a few weeks to several months.
