The Benefits of a Smile Makeover
A smile makeover is a customized treatment plan that uses a combination of cosmetic dentistry procedures and restorative dentistry treatments to give you the best possible smile makeover results. Combining these services in a treatment plan offers benefits beyond what a single cosmetic dental procedure can achieve.
- Complete Smile Transformation: A smile makeover corrects multiple cosmetic dental concerns at once, including stained, chipped, gapped, crooked, cracked, or missing teeth.
- Made Just For You: A smile makeover treatment plan is unique to each patient’s wants, needs, facial structure, and goals. This means your new smile makeover results will look and feel natural and be customized just for you.
- Increased Confidence: Correct dental imperfections with a personalized smile makeover or cosmetic dental procedure, and experience the confidence that comes from your best smile.
- Improved Oral Health: Smile makeover treatments can improve dental health by restoring damaged teeth, correcting functional bite issues, and replacing missing teeth to rehabilitate the smile.
- Long-Lasting Results: With high-quality materials and advanced prosthodontic (restoration) techniques, your new smile makeover will last for years to come.

Smile Makeover Consultation
Every journey to a confident smile begins with a thorough smile makeover consultation. During this personalized session, Dr. Gardner and our dedicated team take the time to understand your unique concerns, aspirations, and goals for your smile. We work closely with you to imagine and plan the smile you’ve always wanted, ensuring your vision is at the heart of the process.
Smile Design
With advanced tools like digital scans, X-rays, and cutting-edge smile design software, we take a deep dive into analyzing the details of your teeth, gums, and bite. This allows us to craft a fully customized smile makeover plan tailored to your needs. As part of the process, you’ll even have the opportunity to preview your potential smile restoration results, giving you confidence and excitement before starting treatment!
Custom Treatment Planning
Armed with an understanding of your smile makeover goals and oral health needs, we create a personalized smile makeover treatment plan for you. Your treatment plan may involve one or a combination of the many cosmetic dentistry procedures we offer to achieve the results you want. These may include professional teeth whitening, porcelain veneers, no-prep veneers, dental crowns, dental bonding, tooth-colored fillings, dental implants, Invisalign, or gum contouring.
Treatment in Multiple Phases
Typically, smile makeovers are done over a series of treatment phases. For example, your teeth may need whitening before receiving veneers, or you may need orthodontic treatment before final restorations. Each phase of treatment, whether it be alignment with orthodontics, restorative aesthetic procedures, or gum treatments, is performed in a logical order for the most efficient cosmetic dental makeover experience.
Restorations and Smile Reveal
The last phase of your smile makeover is receiving your custom dental restorations to complete your new smile. These may include veneers, crowns, or implant-supported prosthetics, depending on your personalized treatment plan. Dr. Gardner and our dental team ensure the fit, comfort, function, and appearance of each restoration before permanently bonding or cementing it in place. Once final adjustments are made, you will see your complete smile transformation for the first time.

Tips for Preserving Your Smile Makeover Results
Investing in your dream smile is important, and with proper care, your cosmetic smile makeover can last for years to come. Here’s how to protect your new smile:
Follow Good Oral Hygiene Habits
Brushing at least twice per day and flossing once daily is essential for removing plaque and protecting both your natural teeth and cosmetic restorations, like veneers and crowns, ensuring beautiful and long-lasting smile makeover results.
Protect Cosmetic Dental Restorations
Avoid biting on hard foods or using teeth as tools for opening packages and other tasks that could damage dental restorations. If you have a habit of clenching or grinding teeth, consider a custom nightguard for added protection, especially after a full smile makeover.
Limit Staining Foods and Drinks
Although porcelain restorations are stain-resistant, it’s wise to moderate your intake of coffee, tea, and red wine, and rinse with water afterward to maintain consistent color between natural teeth and your cosmetic restorations.
Maintain Regular Dental Visits
Routine dental visits and professional cleaning allow our Cody dental team to keep an eye on your restorations, take care of small problems before they become big ones, and ensure your smile makeover looks its best with regular polishing and maintenance.

Smile Makeover FAQs
Ready to transform your smile? We get a lot of questions from patients about their options with smile makeovers, dental makeovers, and full smile rejuvenation, so we put together a list of frequently asked questions to help you along the way.
What’s the difference between a smile makeover and a full mouth reconstruction?
A smile makeover is mainly concerned with the cosmetic appearance of the teeth and the smile. Full mouth reconstruction, also called full mouth rehabilitation, is a more extensive process that focuses on dental function and health as well as improving the overall appearance.
How long does a smile makeover take?
Treatment times for smile makeovers can range from a few weeks to over a year, depending on which services you choose. Some cosmetic enhancements can be completed in one or two visits, while more involved plans, such as smile makeovers with implants or braces, may take several months to a year. During your consultation, we will provide you with a detailed timeline for your personalized treatment plan.
Will my smile makeover results last a long time?
With proper care, many cosmetic and restorative dental results last 10–15 years or more. For example, veneers, crowns, bridges, and dental implants can all last for decades with good dental hygiene habits and regular dental visits.
How much will a smile makeover cost?
Smile makeover costs are always unique to the individual patient. Following your consultation, Dr. Gardner will provide you with a detailed treatment plan with a breakdown of costs. We are happy to discuss financing options and payment plans to support your smile makeover goals.
Are there any age restrictions for smile makeovers?
There is no upper age limit for smile makeovers and other cosmetic dental services. As long as you are in good health, both dental and otherwise, you can benefit from a cosmetic smile makeover or full transformation.
