Smile Makeovers


We will also evaluate additional factors, such as the Pink Frame of your teeth: ie, the symmetry and support that the gums and lips provide to your smile. Oftentimes, the least invasive treatment plans are a combination of ABC: Alignment via Suresmile clear aligner orthodontics, Bleach (aka whitening), and Composite restorations to restore worn or chipped edges. 

So, the basic steps of a smile makeover are to firstly, make sure the teeth are in the correct position, and secondly, make them look better. 

If the teeth are in the right position, then the main options to change the shape and colour are Composite vs. Ceramic restorations (often a combination of veneers and onlays or crowns). 

Each material option carries its respective pros and cons, as per the chart below:
