Smile Makeover Dentist Bridgeman Downs | Zen Dental Studio Brisbane
What is a smile makeover?
In general, any dental treatment that affects aesthetics and/or function of multiple teeth in the mouth is called a smile transformation or full mouth reconstruction.
What is involved in the process of a smile transformation?
A smile makeover either for aesthetic reason or functional or a combination of the two involves a detailed process.
First will be a detailed understanding of your concerns and the dental issues present will be noted. Time will be given to understand the physical and psychological impact this dental problem has had. This can be a challenging and an emotional process and our dentist at Zen Dental Studio will guide you through the process.
A complete examination and assessment will be carried out. This will most likely involve a set of records including x-rays, study models, photographs as well as other records.
A proper plan will be drafted with various treatment options to suit an individual’s needs and time frame in which the treatment is to be completed will be outlined.
Does the process hurt?
Typically, patients are under local anaesthetic and possibly sedation for the whole process. There should be no pain during the procedure once numbness takes effect. With smaller cases, there will be very little or no discomfort after the numbness subsides. Patients should expect some soreness of the gums and possibly the jaw in cases that involve multiple teeth. The soreness can typically be controlled with over-the-counter medications.
