We all deserve a beautiful smile that matches our personality. If you cringe every time you look in the mirror, or hide your teeth when smiling for photos, a smile makeover<\/a> might be what you need to regain the confidence you once had.<\/span><\/p>\n But before you do, there may be some steps Perth, AU<\/a> patients need to take to ensure optimal results, faster healing and overall better oral health.<\/span><\/p>\n At Smile Design Studio Dr Vicky Ho and her caring and compassionate team of dental professionals know just how important your oral health is for your overall state of well being. Oral health has been linked to diabetes, heart disease, pneumonia, endocarditis, pregnancy and birth complications, and more.<\/p>\n Your oral health also plays a key role in what smile makeover procedures may be most appropriate, how quickly you\u2019ll heal from those procedures, and the quality of the outcome.<\/p>\n Dental Checkup <\/strong><\/p>\n Before any smile makeover procedure, you\u2019ll need to have a standard dental checkup. During this checkup, your dentist will evaluate your dental and medical history, ask about any issues or symptoms you may be experiencing, and conduct a thorough visual examination of your oral cavity.<\/p>\n Your dentist will look for any signs or indications of gum inflammation or gum disease, cavities, tooth decay, cancer, and more.<\/p>\n Any issues found would need to be addressed before a smile makeover. Failure to address any health issues prior to cosmetic ones could increase the risk of infection, poor outcomes or other complications.<\/p>\n Imaging and Moulds (if appropriate)<\/strong><\/p>\n Advanced imaging will need to be taken in order to get a full visual of your oral cavity, teeth and jaw. This imaging may be used to help identify any areas of concern, underlying issues, and the best approaches for your eventual smile makeover.<\/p>\n Some types of procedures involved in a smile makeover may require a mould of your bite in order to fabricate certain prosthetics or dental appliances to enhance and transform your smile.<\/p>\n Professional Cleaning <\/strong><\/p>\n Leading up to a smile makeover, you\u2019ll want your teeth and mouth to be in perfect condition for any upcoming procedure. Nothing helps prepare your mouth for a smile makeover like a professional cleaning. A professional cleaning can remove plaque and tartar that just won\u2019t come off with brushing at home, and can expertly clean all the nooks and crannies in your mouth that you may have missed or had a hard time getting at<\/p>\n What Services can be a part of a Smile Makeover<\/strong><\/p>\n Dental Veneers<\/strong><\/p>\n A dental veneer is a white, thin shell. The shell is made from ceramic, resin, or porcelain. Each veneer gets custom-made to resemble the patient’s natural teeth closely.\u00a0A cosmetic dentist will remove some of the enamel from each tooth before they attach the veneer.
