A smile makeover is a personalized combination of cosmetic and restorative dental treatments designed to improve the appearance, balance, and function of your smile. At Green Dental in Markham, Dr. Afshin Riazi evaluates tooth color, alignment, spacing, gum symmetry, and facial harmony to create a customized treatment plan that may include veneers, crowns, whitening, bonding, or orthodontic solutions.

Each smile makeover is unique and may include:

• Porcelain veneers
• Dental crowns or bridges
• Professional teeth whitening
• Cosmetic bonding
• Orthodontic treatment (clear aligners)
• Gum contouring

The combination depends entirely on your smile goals and oral health needs.

Treatment timelines vary depending on procedures involved. Simple cosmetic improvements may take only a few weeks, while cases involving orthodontics or implants may take several months. Many multi-treatment smile makeovers are completed within 4–8 weeks, while orthodontic components may extend treatment to 6–18 months.

Smile makeover results can last 5 to 20 years or longer, depending on the treatments performed and how well they are maintained. Veneers typically last 10–15 years, crowns often 10–20+ years, and implants may last a lifetime with proper care.

Whitening, veneers, bonding, and alignment solutions.

Yes, plans are customized for each patient.

Timeline depends on treatment complexity.

A smile makeover provides long-lasting results but is not fully permanent. Some treatments, such as whitening, require periodic maintenance, while restorations like veneers or crowns may eventually need replacement due to natural wear over time.

You may be a candidate if you have:

• Discolored or stained teeth
• Chipped or worn teeth
• Gaps or uneven spacing
• Misshaped teeth
• Multiple cosmetic concerns at once

Healthy gums and stable oral health are important before beginning treatment. Dr. Afshin Riazi performs a full evaluation to ensure safe, predictable results.

While cosmetic improvement is a major goal, many smile makeover treatments also improve function. Correcting bite alignment, replacing missing teeth, and restoring worn enamel can enhance chewing comfort, speech clarity, and long-term oral health.

Most procedures are minimally invasive and performed with local anesthesia for comfort. Patients typically experience little downtime, and any temporary sensitivity usually resolves quickly. Sedation options may also be available at Green Dental for patients with dental anxiety.

To maintain results:

• Brush and floss daily
• Attend regular dental cleanings
• Avoid biting hard objects
• Limit staining foods and smoking
• Use a night guard if you grind your teeth

Consistent oral hygiene significantly extends the lifespan of cosmetic restorations.

Yes. Modern cosmetic dentistry focuses on natural proportions and facial harmony rather than overly white or artificial results. At Green Dental, smile design is customized to match facial features, skin tone, and natural tooth characteristics for realistic aesthetics.

The process typically includes:

1. Consultation and smile analysis
2. Digital planning and treatment sequencing
3. Trial or temporary restorations (when needed)
4. Final placement and refinement

Careful planning ensures predictable results and long-term stability.
