Have you ever heard of a smile makeover? A smile makeover is a personalized plan that Dr. Sievert will develop with you based on your needs and wants so that you receive the treatment you need for a true smile makeover.

What Can You Correct with A Smile Makeover?

Here are some issues you can correct with a smile makeover:

1. Stained or Discolored Teeth: When your teeth become stained or discolored from eating or drinking certain foods or using tobacco products, removing them just by brushing can be impossible. Even if you use whitening toothpaste, these products only remove stains from the tooth’s surface. Stains that have penetrated the tooth’s enamel can only be eliminated via a tooth whitening treatment as part of a smile makeover
2. Tooth Decay: While many may think of a smile makeover as something which only addresses cosmetic dental issues, restorative treatments will also be included in your treatment plan. The most common dental health issue patients face is tooth decay. When a tooth becomes decayed, this decay must be removed, the tooth cleaned, and a white tooth-colored filling applied to fill the resulting cavity
3. Minor Chips or Gaps: Some patients seeking a smile makeover may be troubled by the gaps and jagged teeth that are revealed when they smile. Minor imperfections like small chips or gaps can be corrected via a simple dental bonding procedure as a part of your smile makeover
4. Missing Teeth: Another common issue that patients seeking a smile makeover face is missing teeth. The great news here is that there are several options available that can be included as a part of your smile makeover. These options include dental bridges, and dental implants.
