What does a smile makeover mean?

A smile makeover is a term used by dental professionals that involves the process of improving one’s smile by using one or more cosmetic dentistry procedures.

Quick guide to oral surgery treatments for a smile makeover

The list below is a quick guide of information on oral surgery treatments that many people are choosing nowadays in order to make-over their smiles.

Dental implants

Even missing one tooth can make for a less than pleasant smile. Those who are missing one or more of their teeth can choose to get dental implants to replace their missing teeth. This allows them to once again have a full mouth of teeth, which not only makes for a pleasant smile, it also makes for a healthy mouth. While there are many benefits that come with choosing implants, the main benefit is that they look and act just like natural teeth.

Tooth extraction

Tooth extraction is necessary when one or more of someone’s teeth are causing problems to the other teeth. Wisdom teeth need to be extracted when they start growing in and start causing problems. When there is not enough room for them to properly grow in, they can make the other teeth crooked and cause mouth infections. A pleasant smile is one that has straight teeth.

Crown lengthening

Crown lengthening is a minor surgical process that dentists perform with the goal of recontouring one’s gum tissue. It requires the removal of any excess gum and bone tissue that makes a tooth look too small and can be done to one tooth or multiple teeth. The end result is a natural-looking smile, which is something many people are looking for nowadays when wanting to make-over their smile.
