Smile Makeover: Are your teeth ready for summer?
We have received the news we have all been waiting for at last. The announcement of the de-escalation roadmap finally leads us to our lockdown emancipation! Our efforts were not in vain, the vaccination rollout is working. There is light at the end of the tunnel and normality is on the horizon! How we have longed for this news for so long.
It seems like forever since we have been able to interact socially. We are looking forward to seeing friends, family and loved ones, embracing the warmth of Spring and indulging in our newfound freedoms. Suddenly pub lunches, family days out and dinner dates are all back on the cards and tentatively sliding into our calendars. For some, it means that long-postponed celebrations like anniversaries, weddings and birthdays can once again be scheduled, permitting a level of optimism that’s almost too good to believe.
Over the course of the next 12 weeks, we will be emerging from our winter hibernation to face public life once again. There is a cautious path ahead to slowly ease us into the realms of togetherness. It’s easy for the excitement to take over, but there is plenty of time to prepare. With clear landmarks of change on the way, how will you take advantage of this period of transition back to ‘normal’ life?
Before you dust the cobwebs off your summer wardrobe and hit the gym to shift a few Corona Kilos, have you thought about how your teeth could benefit from some TLC? Since there is at least a couple of months before there is any dramatic change to our social activity, wouldn’t this be a great time to start on the journey of a Smile Makeover? Wouldn’t you love to make your first foray back onto your social scene, looking and feeling your best? Are your teeth ready to come out from behind the mask?
What is a Smile Makeover?
makeover/ˈmeɪkəʊvə/
noun
“a complete transformation of the appearance of someone or something”
While forced to the confines of our homes, there is no denying that focus has turned recently to enhancing the appearance of our properties. Sadly with many non-essential businesses being closed, we may not have been able to dedicate as much attention to ourselves.
With fitness, hair, beauty and health activities all on the back burner, you may feel like a shadow of your former self. There is nothing like a makeover to provide a much-needed pick-me-up and this is where a ‘Smile Makeover’ delivers.
A Smile Makeover offers you the chance to totally transform not just your smile, but your whole facial appearance. Teeth form such a focal part of our facial aesthetics. We are drawn to the beauty of white, uniform, straight outlines within the frame of our lips, but they also provide contour and structure to our face.
With a Smile Makeover, a specialist cosmetic dentist can draw on a range of techniques and treatments to improve the overall look of your teeth. It’s an investment in your appearance for the long haul. Unlike a new outfit, hair cut or cosmetics, this makeover is designed to last, giving you a result that you can enjoy for years if not forever. With summer on its way, places to go and people to see, there will never be a better time to embark on your transformation.
Just some of the corrections that a Smile Makeover can address are:
- Crooked teeth
- Broken, cracked or chipped teeth
- Discoloured or stained teeth
- Uneven lengths
- Missing teeth
- Gaps
- Overlaps
- Restorations
If you want to feel like a million dollars this summer and quite frankly you probably deserve to, a Smile Makeover will give you a look that you will be dying to show off.
What happens during a Smile Makeover?
Since each facial structure is completely unique, a Smile Makeover involves creating a personalised design that addresses any or all of your dental hangups.
The journey will begin with a consultation, either virtually, by phone or in person at a dental clinic. It’s important during this consultation to describe the issues that most bother you about your teeth and what you’d most like to address.
Once the cosmetic dentist has listened to your concerns, its time to bring out the star of the show; the iTero 3D Intraoral Scanner. This is state-of-the-art digital scanning technology, which takes thousands of pictures of your mouth, forming them into detailed 3D imagery. Through the use of this advanced piece of kit, a realistic visualisation of your mouth is created, from which a digital smile design can be based.
Your dental specialist will then be able to demonstrate what changes can be made, what treatments will be used and at what stage to deliver the ‘pièce de résistance’; a perfect smile. We can assure you, you will be blown away by the before and after imagery.
There is no one-size-fits-all approach. Some require only 1 treatment to deliver their desired results, whilst others will take advantage of a combination of treatment methods, which could include:
⭐️ Invisalign
⭐️ Composite Bonding
⭐️ Porcelain Veneers
⭐️ Professional Whitening
⭐️ Restorations
⭐️ Dental Implants
⭐️ Crowns
Between you and your specialist, you will reach an agreement on how to proceed based on the images you have seen and the results you are aiming for. From this point, your treatment plan will be put in place and your transformation journey will begin!
When should I have a Smile Makeover?
At Banning Dental Group, we find that our clients are interested in embarking on their Smile Makeover journey leading to or from significant life-changing events. Who doesn’t want to look their best on their wedding day for example? Going into retirement and no longer having to worry about work or kids is also a great reason to invest in yourself. Coming out of nearly a years quarantine we think is just as good a reason as any for a dazzling smile!
The 12-week roadmap to alleviating lockdown is the perfect amount of time for a transformation journey. It’s been a hard enough year all round and a Smile Makeover will give you teeth you want to smile about this summer.
Whatever your motives or stage in life, we can guarantee your teeth will look and feel incredible after a Smile Makeover. It will improve your outlook, confidence and wellbeing and give you something spectacular to look forward to.
