Understanding Smile Makeovers

A smile makeover enhances your teeth using a combination of cosmetic treatments. Depending on your needs, this may include veneers for shape and colour, teeth whitening for brightness, gum contouring for balance, orthodontics for alignment, or CEREC crowns to restore damaged teeth. Each makeover is tailored to achieve a natural, harmonious result.

Common Concerns Addressed:


  • Discolouration: Teeth that are stained or have lost their natural brightness.
  • Chips and Cracks: Minor fractures affecting the tooth’s surface.
  • Gaps: Spaces between teeth that may affect the uniformity of your smile.
  • Misalignment: Teeth that are crooked or not properly aligned.

Dental Veneers: An Overview

Dental veneers are thin shells, typically made of porcelain or composite resin, designed to cover the front surface of teeth. They are used to improve the appearance of teeth that are discoloured, chipped, or misaligned.

Types of Veneers:

  • Porcelain Veneers:
    Known for their durability and natural appearance, porcelain veneers resist stains and can last between 10 to 15 years with proper care. However, they require more enamel removal and are generally more expensive.
  • Composite Veneers:
    These are less costly and require less enamel removal. Composite veneers can be applied in a single visit but are more prone to staining and typically last around 5 years.

Advantages and Considerations:

Porcelain Veneers:

Potential Risks and Considerations

While smile makeovers and veneers offer significant aesthetic benefits, it is essential to be aware of potential risks:

  • Tooth Sensitivity:
    Some patients may experience increased sensitivity to hot or cold temperatures after veneer placement. Typically this sensitivity reduces over time.

  • Enamel Removal:
    The process requires the removal of a thin layer of enamel, which is irreversible and may affect tooth strength.

  • Maintenance:

    Veneers require proper oral hygiene and regular dental check-ups to maintain their appearance and functionality.
