Combining Dental Procedures for a Smile Makeover That is Best for You
Oct 16, 2025
The annual spend on cosmetic dentistry now exceeds 26.5 billion dollars, and smile makeovers are one of the most popular options. A smile makeover is a customized treatment plan that combines several dental procedures to transform the appearance and function of your teeth and gums.
Instead of focusing on one problem at a time, a smile makeover looks at the bigger picture. At Llanos Dental Group, we specialize in personalized smile makeovers that focus on your unique goals, dental health, and lifestyle.
We design a step-by-step plan to give you a healthier, brighter, and more balanced appearance. By blending the right treatments, we can restore function, enhance beauty, and give you a smile you’ll be proud to share.
When planning your smile makeover, we may recommend a mix of cosmetic and restorative treatments. Here are some of the most common procedures we combine:
Whitening removes stains commonly caused by coffee, tea, red wine, or aging. We often start with whitening so we can match any restorations, like crowns or veneers, to your new tooth color.
Veneers are delicate shells of porcelain or composite material that cover the front of your teeth. They can correct chips, gaps, discoloration, or slightly crooked teeth. When combined with whitening, veneers give a stunning, uniform appearance.
Crowns strengthen and protect damaged teeth while restoring their natural shape. If you have teeth with large fillings or fractures, crowns blend seamlessly with veneers and whitening treatments for a balanced smile.
Missing teeth affect both appearance and function. Implants replace the root of a missing tooth and are topped with a crown that looks and feels natural. When paired with other treatments, implants restore your smile’s completeness and improve your bite.
For patients with crooked or crowded teeth, orthodontics or clear aligners, such as Invisalign®, may be part of the makeover. Straightening your teeth improves not only the look of your smile but also makes oral hygiene easier.
Sometimes the gums cover too much of the teeth, creating what’s known as a gummy smile. Reshaping the gumline exposes a greater area of your natural teeth, making your smile more proportional when combined with other treatments.
Your smile makeover begins with a smile design consultation. We’ll discuss your goals and carefully examine your teeth, gums, and bite. We also use digital imaging and models to show you what your new smile could look like.
We then create a treatment plan that prioritizes both health and appearance. For example, we may treat gum disease or cavities first to ensure your mouth is healthy before moving to cosmetic procedures.
Rest assured, we’ll explain each step, so you know what to expect in terms of time, cost, and recovery.
Each patient undergoing a smile makeover has different requirements. Some may only need a whitening treatment to feel more confident, while others need more extensive work. By combining procedures, we can:
Completing multiple treatments together means fewer appointments overall.
Aligning the color, shape, and position of teeth leads to a natural, seamless appearance.
Restoring your bite and alignment makes chewing and speaking easier.
Correcting issues like decay or gum disease ensures your results last.
While the primary goal of having a smile makeover is to improve your appearance, the benefits go deeper than that. Patients often find they:
A healthy, attractive smile has the power to transform not just your appearance, but also your overall quality of life.
If you’re unhappy with your smile, have multiple dental concerns, or want a healthier, more youthful appearance, a smile makeover may be the right choice. At Llanos Dental Group, we’ll work with you to design a plan that fits your needs and budget so that you can achieve lasting results.
Your smile is unique, and so is the plan to improve it. By combining different dental procedures, we can create a smile makeover that supports your oral health, enhances your natural beauty, and helps you feel your best.
