Transform Your Smile: What to Expect from a Complete Smile Makeover

How many times has a memory popped up on your social media feed, and you said, “Wow! My smile is perfect!” If this has never happened to you, you join many who weren’t born with Hollywood smiles. 

The inconvenient truth is that living with imperfections can ding your confidence, especially since we are immersed in a society that can’t wait to post another selfie photo with their best friends.

Don’t you wish you could erase all the imperfections and start over again? Well, you can, says Ginger Rome, DDS, Maurina Brooks, DDS, and the team at The Dentists at North Cypress in Houston, Texas. If you typically offer to take the photo, do the closed-mouth smile, or worse yet, hold your hand in front of your teeth, there’s another option – think smile makeover.

What is a smile makeover?

When you think about makeovers, you may conjure images of those home makeover reality shows or facial aesthetic procedures. The key to both examples is that transformations address flaws.

With a smile makeover, your dental provider creates a plan to deliver your best smile by addressing tooth imperfections you wish you didn’t have. A smile makeover is a treatment plan fine-tuned just for you that addresses multiple aesthetic concerns.  

The process begins with a consultation. At this appointment, you share your goals for transforming your smile. Dr. Rome reviews your dental and medical history and performs an oral exam. She taps into this data to create your smile makeover treatment plan. 

The plan maps out the procedures to achieve your smile goals and outlines a treatment timeline that unfolds over multiple appointments.  

Live your best smile

A smile makeover is a highly customizable cosmetic treatment plan that sends all your confidence killers packing. What seemed like insurmountable obstacles to capturing your dream smile is finally within reach.

Smile makeovers can address a broad spectrum of aesthetic issues, including:

• Discolored teeth
• Missing teeth  
• Gapped picket fence-looking teeth
• Chipped, cracked, or worn-down teeth
• Misshapen or uneven teeth
• Crooked, misaligned teeth

The one-goal, multiple solutions personalized plan

The Dentists at North Cypress offers a robust smile makeover treatment menu to reimagine and refresh your smile – the way your smile should have looked all along.

The best part about smile makeovers is that there are no cookie-cutter treatment plans. Your provider designs each smile makeover to address the patient's individual smile outcome goals. 

Treatment procedures may include:

Teeth whitening 

We help our patients restore the luster and brightness of their teeth with the KöR Whitening system. KöR Whitening’s proprietary whitening agent can brighten your smile 16 shades lighter in a single treatment.*

Crowns, bridges, and dental implants 

Missing teeth can wreak havoc on your smile. We help patients address these issues with crowns, bridges, and dental implants — the gold standard for replacing missing teeth. 

Dental implants act and look like natural teeth. With dental implants, we surgically install a titanium post in your jawbone for every missing tooth. Over time, the post heals in place. Your provider completes the process by placing a custom crown on top to create your new artificial tooth.

Veneers and cosmetic bonding 

These versatile, minimally invasive treatment options make chips and cracks disappear. Bonding uses color-matched composite resin to repair chips, cracks, and can even lengthen worn teeth. 

Veneers are wafer-thin porcelain shells that your provider bonds to the surface of your teeth to cover up imperfections like chips while transforming the size, shape, and even the color of your teeth.

Gum lifts or gum grafting

If you have a gummy smile, we use a minimally invasive procedure to lift your gum line. If you suffer from receding gums, we perform a gum graft using tissue from one area of your mouth to treat the recession. 

Invisalign® 

The Invisalign clear aligner system provides a more comfortable and convenient way to address crooked teeth and improve bite problems in less time than traditional braces. Plus, with virtually undetectable aligners, it’s completely discreet.
