Your smile says a lot about you. It’s often the first thing people notice, and it can play a big role in how you feel about yourself. At Oral Implants & Reconstructive Dentistry (OIRD), we’ve seen firsthand how a beautiful, confident smile can change someone’s outlook. That’s why we offer fully customized smile makeovers right here in Lewis Center, OH—tailored not just to improve your appearance, but to enhance your health and comfort, too.
A smile makeover isn’t just one procedure. It’s a carefully planned combination of treatments, all designed to work together and give you a smile that feels like it was always meant to be yours.
No two smiles—or patients—are exactly alike. That’s why every smile makeover we create is unique. Depending on your needs and goals, your plan may include one or more of the following:
We’ll help you decide what combination of services makes the most sense based on your current oral health, your aesthetic goals, and your budget.
We believe a truly successful smile makeover starts with a plan—not a product. That’s why we begin with a detailed consultation. It’s not just about looking at your teeth; it’s about understanding your goals, identifying any underlying concerns, and building a roadmap that gets you from where you are to where you want to be.
1. Consultation and Personalized Planning
First things first: we’ll sit down together. During this initial appointment, Dr. Heller or Dr. DiDonato will examine your smile, listen to what you're hoping to change, and take digital images of your teeth. We’ll also talk about what’s realistic for your timeline and finances. No pressure, just honest guidance.
2. Laying the Groundwork
Think of this phase like prepping a canvas before painting. If you have cavities, gum disease, or other health concerns, we’ll address those first. This ensures that the cosmetic work we do later has a strong, healthy foundation to rest on.
3. Correcting Alignment and Bite
Before jumping into aesthetics, we often need to address function. Misalignment or bite issues might call for Invisalign or even traditional orthodontics. These treatments not only improve how your smile looks—they also prevent future wear and tear on your teeth.
4. Restoring What’s Missing or Damaged
If you’re missing teeth or dealing with significant damage, restorative treatments like dental implants, bridges, or crowns may be part of the plan. These solutions improve function and fill in the gaps, setting the stage for the final aesthetic details.
5. Cosmetic Refinements
Finally, we bring everything together with the finishing touches—things like veneers, bonding, gum sculpting, or whitening. It’s the part most people look forward to—and for good reason. These treatments are often what take your smile from better to truly breathtaking.
There’s no way around it—a smile makeover is an investment. But it’s an investment in how you show up in the world every day. We’ll always be transparent about the costs involved and can work with you on payment plans or financing options if needed. Our administrative team is great at helping patients navigate insurance and out-of-network claims, ensuring there are no surprises along the way.
Once your makeover is complete, a few simple habits can help you protect that new smile:
With proper care, the results of your smile makeover can last for many years—sometimes decades.
How long does the whole process take?
It depends on your treatment plan. Some patients are done in a few weeks. Others may need several months, especially if orthodontics or implants are involved. We’ll give you a clear timeline during your consultation.
Will my new smile look natural?
Absolutely. We take great care to ensure your new smile complements your face, features, and personality. You’ll still look like you—just more confident.
Does it hurt?
Most procedures are surprisingly comfortable, and any post-treatment soreness is usually mild. We’ll make sure you know what to expect every step of the way.
Can I preview the results?
Yes! We often use digital imaging and mock-ups to show you what your new smile could look like before we even get started.
