Smile makeover Shepshed
A smile makeover is not one treatment – it is a plan, tailored around you. We look at what you would like to change, what your teeth actually need, and how we can bring it all together to create a natural, confident result.
That might involve just one or two small tweaks, or it could include a few treatments over time. The goal is not to create a perfect set of identical teeth – it is to make your smile look like you, at your best.
What can a smile makeover include?
We will talk through your options and build a plan that suits your smile, your budget, and your pace. Every plan is different, but common treatments include:
Composite bonding – to smooth edges, repair chips or reshape teeth
Teeth whitening – for a brighter, fresher look
Orthodontics (like Invisalign®) – to align and straighten teeth
Veneers – for longer-term reshaping or correcting deeper discolouration
Hygiene care – to make sure everything is healthy before we begin
Replace old fillings or worn dental work – so everything feels and looks right
Plan your smile, your way
It does not have to be dramatic
Smile makeovers do not always mean big changes. Sometimes it is just one or two small treatments – whitening and bonding, for example – that make everything feel more balanced and natural.
We focus on keeping your teeth healthy, your bite comfortable, and your smile looking like you – just a little fresher, neater or brighter.
Treatment in steps, not all at once
Your plan does not have to happen in a single visit (or even a single year). We can break things down into manageable steps that fit your schedule, your budget and your pace.
Some people choose to start with the biggest change, others begin with the simplest. We will help you build a plan that makes sense and keeps things feeling easy.
Who is a smile makeover for?
This kind of treatment is for anyone who feels self-conscious about their smile – whether it is one tooth or many. You do not need to be after a dramatic change, or know exactly what you want. If something has been holding you back from smiling fully, we are here to help you move forward.
No two smile makeovers are the same – but here is what the journey usually looks like:
We start with a chat. You tell us what you would like to change, and we will take a good look at your teeth, gums and bite. This helps us understand what is possible – and what will work best for you.
We may take photos, scans or x-rays, depending on the case. From there, we will design a step-by-step plan based on your goals, timeline and budget. Some patients just want one or two tweaks. Others want a full transformation.
Once you are happy with the plan, we begin treatment. That might be as simple as whitening and bonding, or a longer plan that includes straightening or veneers. You can choose to space it out or move ahead all at once – we will support you either way.
When your treatment is complete, we will review the results together and make sure you are happy with every detail. We will also talk about how to look after your smile going forward – with regular check-ups, top-ups, or anything else you need.
The smile makeover process
Popular smile makeover combinations
Here are some of the most common ways patients choose to improve their smile – simple combinations that work beautifully together:
Invisalign® + Composite bonding
Straighten your teeth first, then refine the final shape with bonding for a neat, well-aligned smile.
Whitening + Composite bonding
Brighten the overall shade and tidy up edges or gaps – perfect when your teeth are in good condition but need a refresh.
Veneers + Edge contouring
For teeth that need more coverage, veneers can reshape the smile – with subtle contouring to blend everything naturally.
Implants + Bonding/Veneers
Replace missing teeth with strong, natural-looking implants – then bring everything together by refining the shape or shade of the surrounding teeth. A complete, balanced result that looks and feels like your own smile.
You might be wondering...
Do I need to fix all my teeth?
Not at all. Most people choose to focus on the teeth that show when they smile or speak. We will work with you to find the right balance.
How long does a smile makeover take?
It depends on the treatments involved – from a single visit for bonding to several months for Invisalign. We will map out a clear timeline for you.
Can I have treatment done in stages?
Yes. Many smile makeovers are done over time – whether that is for budget, scheduling or just peace of mind. We will help you plan it in steps, so it feels manageable and flexible.
Is a smile makeover just cosmetic?
Not always. While many treatments are aesthetic, some – like straightening or replacing missing teeth – can improve your bite, oral hygiene and long-term dental health too.
Do I need to know what I want before coming in?
No! Most patients come in with a general idea – like wanting straighter, neater or brighter teeth – and we guide you from there. We will help you figure out what’s possible and what suits you best.
