Caring for Peacock Point residents and cottagers at our Port Dover office
Browse every dental service for Peacock PointA comprehensive plan
A smile makeover combines treatments into one coordinated plan.
A smile makeover addresses several cosmetic concerns together, such as colour, shape, alignment, gaps and missing teeth. It may combine whitening, bonding, veneers, aligners, crowns or implants. Because treatments affect one another, careful sequencing matters. A consultation helps you understand what is achievable, how long it will take and what each step involves.
Peacock Point residents and seasonal visitors can begin smile makeover planning at our Port Dover office. If your time in the area is seasonal, discuss the schedule early, since comprehensive cosmetic work often spans several months.
Your vision
Begin by describing the result you hope for.
What you want to change
List the things that bother you about your smile, whether discolouration, chipped edges, crowding, gaps, worn teeth or missing teeth. Bring photos of smiles you like and older photos of your own smile. These help the dentist understand your preferences and how your teeth may have changed over time.
How you want to feel
Think about whether you want a subtle refresh or a dramatic change, how natural you want the result to look and how much time you can commit. Your answers help the dentist recommend a plan that matches your expectations rather than imposing a one-size-fits-all approach.
Assessment
A healthy foundation comes first.
Oral health foundations
The dentist checks for decay, gum disease, bite problems and worn teeth. These need to be addressed before or alongside cosmetic work. Ignoring underlying problems can compromise results and longevity. The dentist will explain what needs attention first and how it fits into the overall plan.
Records and planning
Photos, X-rays, digital scans and models may be used to plan the makeover. Some offices create mock-ups or digital previews to show possible outcomes. Ask how these will be used and whether you can see a preview before committing to treatment that permanently changes your teeth.
Treatment plan
The order of treatment matters.
Sequencing treatments
Aligners might come before veneers so teeth are in the right position. Whitening typically comes before bonding or crowns so restorations can match. Gum contouring may precede veneers on front teeth. The dentist will outline a logical sequence and explain how each step prepares for the next.
Understanding commitments
Some treatments are reversible, while others permanently alter tooth structure. Each has maintenance needs and lifespan. Ask about the number of visits, healing periods and long-term care. Phasing treatment over time can make it more manageable and allow you to assess results along the way.
Moving forward
Make decisions at a comfortable pace.
Taking time to decide
There is no need to decide during the consultation. Take home any information and consider your options. Write down further questions. If you want another perspective, a second opinion is a reasonable step for comprehensive cosmetic work.
Starting treatment
If you proceed, the dentist will schedule the first steps, which may be cleanings or repairs before cosmetic work begins. Confirm the timeline, especially if you are only at Peacock Point for part of the year, so treatment can be completed without long interruptions.

Smile makeover questions
Have a question about your situation? Our team can help you plan a visit.
How long does a smile makeover take?
It depends on the treatments involved. Some makeovers take a few weeks, while others with orthodontics or implants span months. The dentist will outline a timeline based on your plan.
Can I see what my new smile will look like?
Many offices use photos, digital design or mock-ups to preview possible results. Ask what preview methods are available. Previews are guides and may differ slightly from the final outcome.
Do I have to do everything at once?
No. Treatment can be phased over time to suit your schedule and preferences. The dentist can prioritise certain steps and plan others for later, while keeping the overall sequence logical.
What if I have gum disease or cavities?
These usually need to be treated before cosmetic work. Healthy teeth and gums help results last. The dentist will include this care in the plan and explain how it affects timing.
Is a smile makeover permanent?
Some treatments, like veneers and crowns, permanently alter teeth, while others like whitening fade over time. All restorations need maintenance and may eventually need replacement.
