Frequently Asked Questions
What's included in smile design?
Typically 8-16 veneers or crowns to transform visible teeth. May include teeth whitening, gum contouring, and minor orthodontics depending on your needs. Everything is customized to your situation.
How long does treatment take?
5-10 days typically for complete smile transformation. Day 1-2: consultation and design. Day 2-4: preparation and temporary restorations. Day 5-7: final restorations placed. Complex cases may require longer.
Is smile design permanent?
Veneers and crowns are long-term restorations lasting 10-20+ years with proper care. The underlying teeth are permanently modified, so this is a commitment to maintaining your new smile.
Can I see my new smile before treatment?
Yes—digital mock-ups show exactly how your new smile will look. Trial smiles (temporary veneers) let you preview and approve the design before permanent restorations are made.
Will my smile look natural?
Expert cosmetic dentists create natural-looking results that complement your facial features. Modern ceramic veneers mimic natural tooth translucency and color variation perfectly.
Do I need to file down my teeth?
Minimal preparation for quality veneers—typically 0.3-0.5mm removal. Some teeth may need no preparation at all. Your dentist will show you exactly what's needed during consultation.
How do I maintain my new smile?
Good oral hygiene (brushing, flossing), regular dental checkups, avoiding excessive force on front teeth (no biting nails, opening packages). Night guard recommended if you grind teeth.
What if I don't like the result?
Discuss any concerns during the trial smile phase—this is your opportunity to request changes before permanent restorations are made. Reputable clinics want you completely satisfied.
