What Is a Smile Makeover? Upgrade Your Look and Your Confidence

A smile makeover is a cosmetic treatment plan you and your dentist build together. During your consultation, you’ll explore a range of cosmetic dentistry procedures and the ways they could benefit you. You’ll then select the treatments you desire for smile enhancement, and your dentist will schedule them in sequence for streamlined care. Many cosmetic procedures can even be combined for same-day treatment.

Upgrading your smile can provide countless benefits, including:

More Self-Confidence

Your smile is one of the first things others notice about you. A new smile can improve your confidence, which can carry over into your personal and professional life. From your job search to the dating scene, you can put your best self forward.

Customized Results

Your smile makeover treatment plan is designed to realize the smile you envision. Our Ridgewood, NJ, dentists will take careful note of your goals to give you results that provide many years of satisfaction and confidence.

A Happier Life

Your smile makeover will probably make you smile more than ever before. According to the University of West Alabama, smiling releases dopamine, endorphins, and serotonin, three hormones that make you feel happier.

What a Smile Makeover Can Address

A smile makeover at our Bergen County, New Jersey, office can correct nearly any issue with your smile. Some of the most common concerns patients have with their smile when they come to Ridgewood Dental Associates include:

Missing Teeth

Whether you have one or many missing teeth, our cosmetic dentists can restore your smile with custom restorations such as crowns, bridges, and dentures. Implant-supported restorations can replace missing teeth, including the tooth roots.

Misaligned Teeth

Teeth that are mildly misaligned can be made to look straighter using porcelain veneers or dental bonding. But if your dental misalignment is affecting your oral health, we can use Invisalign, a simplified alternative to traditional orthodontics.

Chipped or Cracked Teeth

Minor chips and cracks can be easily concealed using porcelain veneers or dental bonding. If your tooth is more severely damaged, we can restore it with a custom crown.

Cavities and Metal Fillings

Cavities and decay that were treated with metal fillings can make teeth discolored and unhealthy-looking. White fillings that look like natural dental tissue can repair these teeth and give your smile a healthier appearance.

A "Gummy" Smile

Excess gum tissue can make your teeth appear smaller and make your smile look uneven. Our Ridgewood dentists can perform gum contouring, a process of gently removing excess tissue and creating a more attractive frame for your teeth.

Discolored Teeth

Discoloration from certain foods and beverages, poor oral hygiene, and the natural aging process can give your teeth an unhealthy-looking color. Whitening treatments or veneers can make your smile look younger and brighter.

Treatments That Can Enhance Your Smile

Our dentistry office in Ridgewood, NJ, has numerous cosmetic treatments that can be included in your smile makeover:

Keeping Your Smile Makeover Affordable Our Team Accepts Insurance and Financing

While smile makeovers as a whole are not covered by dental insurance, certain procedures with oral health benefits, like Invisalign or dental crowns, may be eligible for coverage under your plan. Ridgewood Dental Associates accepts most major insurances. Our team can help you verify your coverage ahead of time.

We don’t want our cosmetic dentistry patients to hesitate because of out-of-pocket expenses, so we also accept financing through CareCredit®. This lender offers low- and no-interest loans that are repayable over 6 to 24 months.

Things to Avoid After a Smile Makeover

To enjoy the benefits of your smile makeover longer, our dentists recommend you avoid:

Grinding or Clenching Your Teeth

Grinding and clenching can damage your teeth and restorations. If you are unable to stop yourself from grinding your teeth, our dentists in Ridgewood, NJ, can address the issue and provide treatment to protect your smile.

Acidic Drinks

Beverages like coffee, tea, and alcohol are highly acidic. They can also stain your teeth. If you do drink these beverages, we recommend you rinse your mouth with water afterward, and brush your teeth within 30 minutes to avoid stains.

Biting Hard Objects

Do not chew on your nails, pencils, or pens, as these can dislodge a prosthetic or cause a tooth to chip or crack. You should also not open any type of packaging with your teeth.

Sugary Foods

Sugary foods can cause cavities and decay, which can take a toll on the healthy foundation of your beautiful new smile.

Also Offering Full Mouth Reconstruction For Primarily Restorative Needs

Full mouth reconstruction (FMR) is restorative dentistry’s equivalent to smile makeovers. This multi-stage plan includes treatments chosen to address specific oral health issues, like tooth decay, tooth loss, and gum disease. If you’re seeking a Ridgewood dentist for help with oral health issues rather than cosmetic concerns, full mouth reconstruction is likely a great option.
