Full Mouth Reconstruction vs Smile Makeover: What’s the Difference?

Teeth are strong and designed to last a lifetime, but that doesn't mean you're happy with the appearance of your smile. Maybe you have damaged, discolored, or crooked teeth? No matter the issue, cosmetic dentistry can typically help.

However, for the best results and a lasting outcome, addressing your smile's health and aesthetics is always the recommended course.

While a smile makeover considers aesthetic appearance, a full mouth reconstruction addresses appearance and health.

A Smile Makeover in Fayetteville

A smile makeover is likely the best option if you have a healthy smile with no underlying issues. With a smile makeover, your dentist may apply some or all of the following options:

  • Dental veneers
  • Same-day dental crowns
  • KöR® professional teeth whitening
  • Tooth-colored restorations
  • Dental implants
  • Invisalign® clear aligners

We also offer BOTOX® for various treatments, including facial aesthetics.

Full Mouth Reconstruction Near Me

Sometimes, smile aesthetics suffer due to underlying causes. For example, acid reflux and bruxism (teeth grinding) can break down and erode your teeth. Genetic factors, dietary choices, untreated cavities, and so much more must also be considered.

With a full mouth reconstruction, your dentist addresses your entire smile, which includes tooth and gum health. Treatment may also include advice on maintaining your results after treatment.

In other words, we can apply many of the same cosmetic dentistry options to address smile appearance, but we also provide restorative dentistry and oral health treatments for optimal dental health.
