Smile Makeover in Old Street, City Road & Enfield

A Personalised Approach to Improving the Appearance of Your Smile

A smile makeover isn’t a single treatment, but a personalised plan that combines two or more cosmetic and restorative treatments to address the things you’d most like to change about your smile. Because everyone’s teeth, goals, and idea of an ideal smile are different, your plan is built around your individual circumstances and preferences.

At Dental Arts Studio in City Road and Enfield, London, our dentists take time to understand what you’d like to achieve, assess what’s realistically possible for your teeth and gums, and talk you through the options before recommending a plan.

What Is a Smile Makeover?

A smile makeover brings together whichever combination of cosmetic and restorative treatments will best address your specific concerns, whether that’s discolouration, chipped or worn teeth, gaps, misalignment, or missing teeth. Rather than a fixed package, it’s a tailored treatment plan built around an assessment of your teeth and gums and a conversation about what you’d like to change.

A smile makeover might involve:

Improving the colour of your teeth
Repairing chipped, worn, or misshapen teeth
Closing gaps or addressing minor misalignment
Replacing missing teeth
Improving the proportion or symmetry of your gum line

What’s achievable, and which treatments are suitable, depends on the current condition of your teeth and gums. Your dentist will assess this and explain realistically what can be improved for you.

Who May Consider a Smile Makeover?

You may want to discuss a smile makeover with our team if you:

Feel self-conscious about the appearance of your smile
Have several concerns you’d like to address together, rather than one at a time
Are considering a special occasion or milestone and want to plan treatment with enough time
Would like a professional opinion on what’s realistically achievable for your teeth

A smile makeover isn’t only for people with significant dental concerns; some patients simply want a small number of coordinated changes. Your dentist can help you understand what would make the most difference for you.

Treatments That May Be Combined

Teeth whitening

Professional whitening can lighten the natural shade of your teeth as part of a wider plan, or on its own.

Veneers and cosmetic bonding

These can improve the shape, colour, or alignment of individual teeth, often used for front teeth. You can read more on our veneers page.

Dental crowns

Crowns can restore teeth that are significantly worn, weakened, or damaged, improving both function and appearance.

Orthodontic treatment

Where misalignment or crowding is a concern, orthodontic treatment may be recommended, sometimes alongside other cosmetic treatments. You can read more on our orthodontics page.

Dental implants or bridges

Missing teeth can be replaced as part of a wider smile makeover plan, restoring both appearance and function.

Gum contouring

Where the gum line is uneven or covers more of the tooth than desired, gum contouring can help create better balance between the teeth and gums.

Before Your Smile Makeover

Initial consultation

Your dentist examines your teeth and gums, discusses what you’d like to change, and talks through what’s realistically achievable for your particular case.

Smile design

For more involved plans, this may include photographs, digital mock-ups, or other visual aids to help you picture the possible outcome before committing to treatment.

Treatment planning

Your dentist will set out the recommended treatments, the order they’d be carried out in, an estimated timescale, and the overall cost, in writing, before you decide whether to proceed.

How a Smile Makeover Comes Together

Step 1: Consultation and assessment

A full examination, and often photographs or X-rays, help your dentist understand the current condition of your teeth and gums.

Step 2: Discussing your goals

You and your dentist discuss what you’d like to change and agree on realistic, achievable goals for your treatment.

Step 3: Planning the sequence

Where multiple treatments are involved, your dentist plans the order they should be carried out in, as some treatments (such as orthodontics) are often completed before others (such as veneers or crowns).

Step 4: Carrying out treatment

Treatment is carried out according to the agreed plan, which may take place over several appointments or a longer period, depending on what’s involved.

Step 5: Review

Once treatment is complete, your dentist reviews the results with you and discusses how to maintain them going forward.

Benefits of a Smile Makeover

For suitable patients, a coordinated approach to smile improvements may help:

Address several concerns together, with a plan that considers how each treatment works with the others
Improve the appearance of your smile in a way that reflects your individual goals
Support your confidence in social or professional situations
Combine cosmetic improvements with restorative treatment where needed

Results vary between individuals, depending on your starting point, the treatments involved, and your own goals. Your dentist will discuss what’s realistically achievable for you rather than promising a specific outcome.

Cost of a Smile Makeover

The cost of a smile makeover depends entirely on which treatments are included in your plan, so it can vary significantly between patients.

If you’re planning a smile makeover in Enfield, or comparing options from City Road, your written treatment plan will set out the exact cost for the treatments included, so you can budget with confidence rather than relying on an average price found online.

Treatment fees

We provide a full written treatment plan with a clear breakdown of costs for each element, before any treatment begins.

Maintaining Your Results

Looking after your smile afterwards helps support the results of your treatment, although this cannot be guaranteed indefinitely, and some elements may need maintenance over time.

Maintain good oral hygiene — Brush twice daily and clean between your teeth to protect both natural teeth and any restorations.
Attend regular check-ups — Routine reviews allow your dentist to monitor your results and address any changes early.
Follow treatment-specific aftercare advice — Such as guidance for veneers, crowns, or whitening, which your dentist will provide.
Consider staining foods and habits — Tea, coffee, red wine, and smoking can affect the appearance of natural teeth and some restorations over time.
Contact us with any concerns — Let us know promptly if anything feels different or you have questions about your results.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know which treatments I need?

This is decided together with your dentist after an assessment of your teeth and gums and a discussion of what you’d like to change. There’s no fixed package; your plan is built around your individual case.

How long does a smile makeover take?

This varies significantly depending on which treatments are included. Some plans can be completed in a few weeks, while others involving orthodontics or implants may take several months. Your dentist will give you a realistic timescale once your plan is agreed.

Will a smile makeover guarantee a perfect smile?

No dental treatment can guarantee a specific outcome. Your dentist will explain what’s realistically achievable based on your teeth and gums, and aims to help you achieve a result you’re happy with.

How much does a smile makeover cost?

This depends entirely on which treatments are included in your plan. We provide a detailed, written quote after your consultation so you understand the full cost before deciding whether to proceed.

Can I choose to have some treatments and not others?

Yes. Your dentist will explain the reasoning behind each recommendation, but the final decision about which treatments to proceed with is yours.

Will I be able to see what my smile might look like before committing?

For many cosmetic treatments, photographs or digital mock-ups can help you get a sense of the possible outcome, though these are a guide rather than an exact prediction of the final result.

Is a smile makeover only cosmetic, or can it address dental problems too?

It can be both. A smile makeover plan can combine purely cosmetic treatments, such as whitening, with restorative treatments needed to address damaged or missing teeth.
