A Smile Makeover is a comprehensive treatment plan that combines two or more cosmetic and restorative dental procedures to dramatically enhance the aesthetics and health of your entire smile. This personalized process goes beyond fixing individual issues; it considers your facial features, skin tone, gum line, and personal goals to create a harmonious, beautiful, and fully functional smile. At Prime Smile Dental, we specialize in Digital Smile Design (DSD) to plan every detail of your transformation, resulting in a predictable and stunning new look that renews your confidence.
A Smile Makeover is a highly individualized treatment, often spanning several weeks or months. It involves coordinating multiple procedures to achieve an ultimate aesthetic result.
Common procedures integrated into a Smile Makeover include:
The entire process is digitally mapped and reviewed with the patient before any treatment begins.
The final result is designed to be perfectly balanced, ensuring the new teeth size, shape, and color complement your unique facial features.
Addressing long-standing cosmetic flaws can dramatically impact self-esteem, improving social interactions and professional opportunities.
Many makeovers correct functional issues like bite misalignment, worn enamel, and missing teeth, leading to improved chewing ability and long-term joint health.
By utilizing durable, high-quality materials like porcelain and zirconia, the results of a comprehensive makeover can last for decades with proper maintenance.
The process is methodical, beginning with precise planning:
Step 1Consultation and Digital Smile Design (DSD)
We take detailed photos, videos, digital scans (iTero), and X-rays. We discuss your ideal smile goals and use DSD software to virtually design and refine your perfect smile, factoring in your facial structure.
Step 2Preview and Approval
You review the digital mock-up (and often a temporary physical mock-up) to ensure you are fully satisfied with the proposed shape, size, and color before any tooth preparation begins.
Step 3Foundational Treatment
Necessary preparatory work is completed, such as gum contouring, addressing old fillings, or orthodontic alignment (if needed).
Step 4Restorative Phase
The teeth are prepared (if necessary) for final restorations (veneers and/or crowns). Impressions are taken, and custom temporaries are placed.
Step 5Final Placement
The final, custom-fabricated restorations are meticulously checked for fit, bite, and aesthetics, and then permanently bonded into place, completing your new smile.
A Smile Makeover is ideal for any patient who is dissatisfied with multiple aspects of their smile, including those with:
Teeth damaged by extensive grinding, chips, or fractures.
Existing dental work (old crowns, dark fillings) that no longer matches or looks unnatural.
Teeth that are severely discolored, have noticeable gaps, or have major shape or size irregularities.
Patients with gaps who require fixed solutions like implants and bridges integrated into the overall aesthetic.
The cost of a smile makeover in Aurora depends on the specific treatments included and the complexity of your case. A smile makeover is customized and may combine services such as teeth whitening, dental bonding, veneers, crowns, or other restorative and cosmetic options to improve the look, function, and balance of your smile.
Pricing is influenced by factors like the number of teeth involved, the type of materials selected, the condition of your teeth and gums, and whether any restorative work is needed before cosmetic improvements. At Prime Smile Dental in Aurora, Ontario, we begin with a consultation to understand your goals, assess your oral health, and create a step-by-step treatment plan. After your assessment, we provide a detailed estimate so you know what to expect before moving forward.
If you have dental insurance, coverage may apply to medically necessary restorative portions of the plan, while purely cosmetic treatments may not be covered. Our team can help review your benefits and discuss billing options.
At Prime Smile Dental in Aurora, a smile makeover is planned with a balance of aesthetics, function, and long-term oral health. Dr. Shideh Khalilakbar, our lead dentist, begins with a detailed consultation to understand what you’d like to improve—such as tooth colour, shape, spacing, or overall symmetry—while also assessing your bite, gum health, and existing restorations.
Dr. Khalilakbar creates a personalized plan that may combine cosmetic and restorative treatments in a logical sequence, with clear explanations at every step. You’ll know what to expect in terms of timeline, maintenance, and outcomes before any treatment begins.
Choosing a dental clinic is about more than services, it’s about feeling comfortable, informed, and confident in your care. At Prime Smile Dental in Aurora, we focus on clear communication, a calm environment, and consistent clinical standards for every patient.
We take time to listen to your concerns, explain findings in plain language, and walk you through treatment options so you can make informed decisions.
We accept CDCP and work with most dental insurance plans. Our team can help you understand coverage, billing, and expected costs before treatment whenever possible.
From a welcoming atmosphere to a gentle approach, our team works to make appointments feel calm and manageable—especially for patients who feel anxious about dental visits.
We use updated tools and thorough assessments to support accurate diagnosis and thoughtful treatment planning, with your long-term oral health in mind.
The timeline varies significantly. A transformation involving only veneers can take 3–6 weeks. If the makeover includes preliminary steps like Invisalign or implant surgery, the process may take 6 months to a year.
Absolutely. Our primary goal is natural beauty. We use high-translucency porcelain and design the teeth to match the subtle variations, shape, and color that define a natural, beautiful smile, avoiding the “fake” or “too white” look.
Yes. Once the restorations (crowns/veneers) are permanently bonded, they are extremely strong. However, we advise against using your teeth as tools and recommend wearing a night guard if you grind your teeth.
The process is not painful. We use effective local anesthesia during any preparatory work (like tooth reduction or gum contouring). Any temporary discomfort during the transition between appointments is easily managed with over-the-counter medication.
