Start with your goals
What can a smile makeover address?
Some patients want a subtle change to one or two teeth. Others need to rebuild comfort, function, and confidence across the whole smile. Your plan begins with the problems that matter to you.
- Color and staining
- Chips, cracks, and worn edges
- Spaces and tooth shape
- Crowding and alignment
- Missing or failing teeth
- A smile that feels like you
Your treatment options
The plan may combine several types of care
The best result is often about sequencing. We may treat health or alignment first, then complete the cosmetic details once the foundation is stable.
Porcelain veneers
Change the visible shape, color, or proportions of selected front teeth when a durable ceramic restoration is appropriate.

How your smile makeover comes together
You should understand the destination, the order of treatment, and the tradeoffs before deciding to begin.
Step 1
Listen and examine
We start with your concerns, medical and dental history, a complete exam, photographs, and any imaging the case requires.
Step 2
Stabilize your health
Active decay, gum disease, infection, or bite problems are addressed before elective cosmetic work.
Step 3
Design and sequence
Dr. Shakally explains the options, recommends an order, and separates must-do care from elective choices.
Step 4
Complete and maintain
Treatment is delivered in planned phases, then protected with appropriate home care, visits, and a night guard when indicated.
Cost and financing
What determines the cost of a smile makeover?
Because every plan is different, a responsible estimate comes after an exam. We provide a written treatment plan that separates health needs from elective options and explains the expected fees before you commit.
- The number and type of teeth being treated
- Whether health, alignment, or tooth replacement comes first
- The materials and laboratory work selected
- Insurance benefits for eligible restorative care
- The number of phases and available payment options

Common questions
Everything you need to know
These are the questions patients most often ask when they are considering cosmetic or restorative changes to several teeth.
A smile makeover is a personalized plan that combines the treatments needed to improve the health, function, and appearance of your smile. It may be as focused as whitening and bonding or as comprehensive as alignment, tooth replacement, crowns, and veneers.
Many adults can be candidates, but the teeth, gums, and bite need to be evaluated first. Active decay, gum disease, infection, or uncontrolled grinding may need treatment before elective cosmetic procedures.
There is no single price because the term covers very different plans. Cost depends on the procedures, number of teeth, materials, laboratory work, and treatment phases. After an exam, we provide a written estimate and review insurance and financing options.
Timing depends on the plan. Focused cosmetic care may take fewer visits, while Invisalign, implants, gum treatment, or combined reconstruction requires staged treatment. We explain the sequence and expected schedule before you begin.
Yes. Gum inflammation or periodontal disease can affect comfort, appearance, and the stability of cosmetic work. We evaluate and stabilize oral health before moving forward with elective treatment.
We begin with your goals and concerns, then complete an oral health and bite evaluation with photographs and any necessary imaging. Dr. Shakally explains the options, priorities, sequence, tradeoffs, and estimated costs so you can decide without pressure.
