What is a smile makeover?

A smile makeover is a treatment plan that can include one procedure or several that work together to improve how your smile looks and functions. Some of these procedures are restorative, which helps damaged teeth function properly again. Dr. Lawler hopes to resolve many of her patients’ insecurities with a smile makeover near Henderson, NV.

Who is a candidate for a smile makeover?

During this consultation, she also can determine if you’re a candidate for a smile makeover. Ultimately, any patient with existing tooth decay or gum disease detected during a dental exam isn’t eligible for a smile makeover until these issues are resolved.

Smile makeover procedures help resolve different oral health issues, including:

• Discoloration, stains, or yellowing
• Chips, cracks, or breaks
• Gaps
• Tooth loss
• Gummy smile
• Crowded, overlapping, or uneven teeth

Dr. Lawler can repair your smile with various procedures at her Henderson, NV area dental office.

Reasons to consider a smile makeover

There are many benefits to improving your smile with a smile makeover, including:

1. Whiter teeth: Dr. Lawler offers Philips Zoom! laser teeth whitening and Opalescence® at-home tooth whitening kits to whiten your smile up to several shades.
2. Repair broken, chipped, or cracked teeth: These imperfections affect how your smile looks and how you bite and chew. Veneers can almost instantly fix a smile while dental bonding can remedy minor imperfections.
3. Improve the length, shape, size, or width of teeth: Cosmetic dentistry procedures, like veneers, offer a more symmetrical smile
4. Rectify crooked, crowded, overlapping, or gapped teeth: Patients who want teeth straightening can use ClearCorrect Aligners to move their teeth to the desired positions gradually.
5. Improve oral health: When you fix gaps, crowded, or misaligned teeth, you improve your oral health too, as all of these things can make it more likely to develop tooth decay.

Will insurance cover smile makeover procedures?

Dental insurance usually covers procedures that they deem medically necessary. However, Dr. Lawler works hard to prove that your procedures are necessary as they help to improve oral health. At Tom Lawler, DMD, we offer GreenSky and CareCredit to make dental treatment more affordable when your insurance company doesn’t cover them.
