With a smile makeover in DeSoto, we can put together a comprehensive treatment plan that’s certain to achieve all sorts of beautiful results.

Keep reading to learn more about this life-changing treatment, or feel free to give us a call to ask questions or schedule a consultation.

“Smile makeover” is often used as an all-encompassing term, but the details of the treatment can vary from patient to patient since a variety of different cosmetic and restorative treatments are utilized. This is why it’s so important to schedule a consultation with us; we’ll need to evaluate the situation inside your mouth and discuss your smile goals with you!
During this appointment, we will learn more about what features you like and dislike about your smile. We will also conduct a comprehensive dental exam to see if any restorative treatments, like dental crowns, are necessary. This exam also studies the dynamics of your face, mouth, and skin tone to ensure that your custom treatment plan will bring your vision to life!

There are plenty of reasons to invest in a brighter and whiter smile! Consider the following benefits that a smile makeover has to offer:

Since each smile makeover is different and involves a distinct number of steps and procedures, there isn’t a fixed flat cost; rather, the overall price will differ from patient to patient. For example, a patient with minor staining or a few aesthetic issues can expect to pay less than a patient in need of tooth restoration or realignment. In any case, during your consultation we will walk you through your entire treatment plan and its finer details, including the overall cost. We’re also happy to review our specials and discuss how you can use your insurance plan, as well as CareCredit financing, to make your treatment as affordable as possible.
When it comes to customizing your smile makeover, the only limit is the treatments your dentist offers. For example, you may want to whiten your smile with teeth whitening and dental veneers, or you could be more interested in hiding tooth chips with dental bonding and metal-free crowns.
An in-person consultation with your dentist can help you understand your options and select an optimized treatment plan. This way, you’ll get the correct number of services to suit your smile and your budget!
There is no set time frame on a smile makeover. Its duration will vary depending on the number and type of treatments you’ve selected. Some treatments such as bonding or in-office whitening can be done in just one appointment, while others may take several weeks or months to complete.
Depending on your needs, your dentist can help devise a flexible treatment plan that works with your schedule or timeline.
Yes! Just like any other cosmetic procedure, your smile makeover is harmless and will not damage your teeth or gums.
Neither teeth whitening nor dental bonding uses toxic chemicals and will not damage enamel or gum tissue.
Veneers and crowns do require the removal of some enamel; however, the prosthetics compensate for this by protecting the teeth.
Be aware that not everyone is suited for every type of cosmetic dental work. Patients with preexisting oral conditions such as tooth decay or gum disease may need to have those issues fixed by a dentist before beginning their smile makeover.
Much like other cosmetic dentistry treatments, a smile makeover is considered an elective procedure. Thus, dental insurance is unlikely to cover it.
However, there may be some exceptions if the treatment also provides oral health benefits. For example, a dental crown may receive partial coverage if it builds up or protects a damaged tooth.
Typically, about 50 to 80 percent of the cost of your treatment will be covered in these cases, but this will depend on your individual policy.
Our team will be happy to help you better understand your specific plan, file your paperwork, and maximize your benefits on your behalf.
