A smile makeover by Dr. Derek Carson and Dr. Mike Acasio, principals of the Carson and Acasio Dental Group, is much more than coming to us for a simple procedure where you leave smiling and happy with the results and our expert care from beginning to end.
There are two main reasons why one should consider a smile makeover.
A smile makeover is for those who just don’t like their appearance or those whose mouth and teeth need a major restoration.
Using a series of procedures with a carefully crafted plan for your particular needs and desires, patients who undergo a smile maker simply lead a happier, healthy life … with a smile that exudes confidence and a mouth that functions perfectly.
For those who just want to have a more appealing look, a smile makeover is the dental equivalent of plastic surgery.
On the other hand, most patients who request a smile makeover have multiple, serious dental issues which affect the entire mouth: gums, teeth, jaw and even reach beyond to other parts of the body, including every organ and system.
A smile makeover may be a total rebuild of the mouth, and unlike one simple procedure, is a combination of multiple procedures to achieve the desired result.
What are the procedures in a smile makeover?
Dental Veneers
What are porcelain veneers? A veneer is a very thin piece of tooth shaped porcelain which are custom made (in color and shape) by a dental laboratory for your mouth. They are bonded to your front teeth. Read more about porcelain veneers here.
Composite Bondings
Composite bonding is also known as porcelain inlays, onlays or composite fillings where dental materials are attached to your teeth. Porcelain crowns are also a form of composite bonding. You can read more about composite bonding in our restoration pages here.
Tooth Implants
What are implants? Dental implants are artificial structures that are placed into the upper or lower jaw bone. There are many different types of implants or your treatment can include permanent or removable solutions such as dentures … often referred to as false teeth. In extreme cases, we offer what’s called All-on-X where we replace all upper or lower teeth with one permanent device. Fixed dental bridges are also a form of implants. Learn more about implants here.
Teeth Whitening
Everyone has heard about teeth whitening. Over time, one’s teeth can become stained or discolored from food, age, smoking, beverages, or simply loss of enamel. Anything but pearly white teeth can affect one’s appearance and smile. Even if not part of a smile makeover, which it most often is, a person with stained teeth should have professional treatment, rather than DIY.

Summary
There is so much more to a smile makeover than we can cover here in this article. What’s important is that you understand there are restoration options available for you through the Carson and Acasio Dental Group.
The next step is for you to have a free consultation with either Dr. Derek or Dr. Mike so we can get to know you, you can get to know us, and we can evaluate your needs, goals and desires. Through that consultation, if you choose to move forward, we will create a treatment plan for you which will detail the procedures, the steps involved, the time required, and the costs.
We consider ourselves gentle dentists. Whenever possible, we use conservative techniques (we have a blog article on conservative dentistry here).
Why not give us a call and make an appointment for a consultation? We guarantee that it will be painless, and through various pain management and anxiety relieving techniques (including IV sleep sedation), going forward the procedures will be as painless as possible, as well.
