a smile makeover is the name for a collection of dental treatments all designed to help you smile with more confidence. Generally speaking a smile makeover will consist of a few of these treatments, sometimes all of them, it rather depends on the current situation and how you want your smile to look afterwards.
These are the standard treatments that are used in a smile makeover.
For example, a dental practice that does not do orthodontics may decide to straighten your crooked teeth by covering the front of them with a dental veneer. In itself this treatment is perfectly valid, however modern advances in orthodontic therapy mean we are able to provide straighter teeth to patients with a more conservative approach.
Even patients who do not wish for others to know that they are having cosmetic dentistry with a smile makeover can opt to have clear and invisible braces.
Many patients want a rapid improvement, and seek smile makeovers with veneers in order to achieve this. Once again this may be the correct treatment option, however the Inman Aligner is a new orthodontic option which can straighten teeth in around 10 weeks. The advantage of having a smile makeover with orthodontics is that you retain your natural teeth, which is a far more holistic way to have a smile makeover, and comes with the advantage that there are no restorations such as veneers or crowns that could possibly break.
The final part to a smile makeover using orthodontics is then to whiten teeth using teeth whitening. Any small chips or pits in teeth can then be filled or restored using dental bonding, or as some people call them instant veneers.
This modern approach to smile make overs is often called align, bleach, bond. As the teeth our first aligned, then bleached, then bonded to create the final makeover result.
In days gone by a small makeover would always have consisted of dental crowns or veneers as this was the only way to treat crooked or broken down teeth. And whilst this is still an excellent treatment option that is used by our practice in Bristol. Wherever possible we prefer to do the most mthisinimally invasive treatment that we can, which is why we like orthodontics, then teeth whitening then finally bonding.

Will composite bonding damage my teeth?
It’s a common concern, especially for patients who want to improve their smile while protecting their natural teeth.
The good news is that composite bonding is often one of the most conservative cosmetic dental treatments available. In many cases, little or no preparation of the tooth is required, meaning your natural tooth structure can be preserved.
Composite bonding can be used to improve the appearance of:
✔ Chipped teeth
✔ Small gaps between teeth
✔ Uneven tooth shapes
✔ Worn edges
✔ Minor imperfections
Because the treatment is minimally invasive, many patients choose composite bonding when they want to enhance their smile without significant changes to their natural teeth.
Every smile is unique, so we’ll always discuss your options and explain exactly what’s involved before any treatment begins.

You could be grinding your teeth every night… without even knowing it. 😴
Many people assume they’d know if they were clenching or grinding their teeth.
In reality, most don’t.
As Richard explains, while we’re asleep our brains continue processing the events and stresses of the day. For some people, that stress is released through clenching or grinding their teeth - but because the part of the brain that would normally recognise it is effectively switched off during sleep, we often have no idea it’s happening.
Over time, tooth grinding can contribute to:
• Worn or chipped teeth
• Jaw pain or stiffness
• Morning headaches
• Sensitive teeth
• Disrupted sleep
If you’ve noticed any of these symptoms, it’s worth mentioning them at your next appointment. We can look for the signs of tooth grinding and discuss ways to help protect your teeth before more damage occurs.
Have you ever been told you grind your teeth, or has someone heard you doing it while you sleep?
