Smile Makeover: A Personalized, Multi-Procedure Treatment Plan
A smile makeover isn’t just one procedure. It’s a full plan that combines two or more treatments to fix several concerns at once. A single visit for teeth whitening or one veneer solves just one problem. A smile makeover is different — it might combine whitening, veneers, bonding, a crown, and tooth movement into one plan. Your cosmetic dentist at CitiDental of Woodhaven maps out that plan for you.
No two smiles need the same fixes. Your plan is built around what you actually want to change. Your dentist reviews your dental health and talks about your goals. Then they lay out which steps come first. Restorative work like a filling or root canal usually comes before purely cosmetic steps like veneers or whitening. This way, the finished result holds up over time.

Procedures That Can Be Combined
Your Queens dentist gives you options. A smile makeover plan can use any of them, based on what your smile needs:
- Crowns — for teeth that are partially damaged, in porcelain, zirconia, eMax or BruxZir materials.
- Invisalign — clear aligners for straightening teeth on a set schedule.
- Bridges — to fill gaps left by missing teeth without extensive prep.
- Teeth whitening — lasts longer and works better when done professionally.
- Dental implants — permanent replacement teeth, including mini, single-tooth, all-on-4 and full-mouth options.
What Your First Visit Involves
Your dentist starts with a full oral exam. If implants are part of the plan, this includes checking your bone density. They also review your medical history and any medications you take. Tell your dentist about conditions like high blood pressure, autoimmune disease, heart problems, or diabetes. These can affect the order of your treatment.
According to Colgate’s oral health resources, a dentist planning implant work usually takes x-rays and impressions. They may also order a CT scan. This maps your sinuses and nerves next to the jawbone before the plan is finished.
Weighing the Investment
A smile makeover combines several procedures, so its total cost depends on which treatments your plan includes. Your CitiDental of Woodhaven team walks you through the full plan and cost before any work begins. We also offer CareCredit financing alongside accepted insurance (United Healthcare, MetLife, Guardian, Delta Dental and Cigna) to help make a multi-step plan easier to manage.
Recovery Between Steps
Bigger steps, like implant placement, can leave you a little sore. Your dentist offers sedation options for those appointments. Simple aftercare tips apply between visits:
- Arrange a ride home after any sedation-assisted procedure.
- Stick to soft foods for a day or two after restorative steps.
- Avoid extremely hot or cold food and drink while any area is healing.
- Keep up your regular brushing and flossing routine throughout the plan.
Mild discomfort after some steps is normal. Over-the-counter pain relievers usually handle it. Call the office if anything feels worse than expected.
