Smile Makeovers in St Leonards
Whether you’re thinking about whitening stained teeth, improving alignment with clear aligners or replacing older dental work, a smile makeover begins with understanding what matters most to you. Every plan is tailored to your goals, oral health and budget, so there isn’t a one-size-fits-all approach.
Every cosmetic plan starts with listening. Before discussing any procedures, Dr Andrew Lau (Dentist) takes the time to understand what you’d like to change, answer your questions and use a digital scan to assess your teeth. From there, you’ll receive personalised recommendations and time to consider your options before deciding what feels right for you.
What Is a Smile Makeover?
A smile makeover is a personalised combination of cosmetic and restorative dental procedures designed to address cosmetic concerns while considering your oral health. Depending on your needs, your plan may include teeth whitening, clear aligner treatment, veneers, crowns, dental bonding or replacing missing teeth.
Some people are looking for a subtle enhancement, while others want to address several concerns over time. Your consultation is an opportunity to discuss your goals and the options that may be appropriate for your individual circumstances.
Reconstruction vs. Makeovers
You may also come across the term smile reconstruction. While the two phrases are sometimes used interchangeably, smile reconstruction often refers to rebuilding teeth affected by wear, damage or tooth loss while also considering appearance and function.
Following a thorough examination, Dr Andrew will explain the approaches available and discuss which option may be appropriate for your needs. In some cases, your plan may involve restorative procedures first, followed by cosmetic enhancements once your oral health has been addressed.
Preview Your Options with Digital Smile Design
Planning begins with a digital scan rather than traditional impressions. Using Digital Smile Design (DSD), Dr Andrew can assess your teeth and create a digital preview to show how different treatment options may influence your overall appearance before any dental work begins.
This digital planning process makes it easier to compare different approaches, ask questions and understand your options before deciding how you’d like to proceed.
Options to Suit Different Goals and Budgets
A smile makeover doesn’t always involve multiple procedures or extensive dental work. For some patients, professional teeth whitening and clear aligner treatment may be enough to address the concerns discussed during their consultation. Others may choose veneers, bonding or crowns, either individually or as part of a staged plan completed over time.
You’ll receive clear explanations, recommendations tailored to your needs and options that take your budget into account, allowing you to decide what works best for you.
