As the name suggests, a smile makeover is the art of improving the appearance of the smile through one or more cosmetic dentistry procedures, such as teeth whitening (Bleaching), veneers, composite fillings & implants.

Dental porcelain in right hands can make for spectacular tooth imitations by mimicking tooth enamel perfectly.

Porcelain veneers within reason allow for the alteration of tooth position, shape, size & color. They require a minimal amount of tooth preparation (approximately 0.5 mm of the surface enamel) – and are, therefore, a more conservative restoration than a crown. Although not the only alternative for all aesthetic abnormalities, they are truly a remarkable restoration when they are treatment of choice.

Though Veneers can be fabricated in composite too - the preferred material is ceramic hence the rest of this discussion shall be keeping in mind porcelain veneers.
