Can I show you a photo of a smile I like?+
Yes, reference images can help explain your preferences. The dentist will then talk about how those ideas relate to your own teeth, gums and bite.
Why can my teeth not be made over in one go?+
Foundational problems such as decay or gum disease generally need treatment first. Final restorations are more predictable once the mouth is stable.
Do those transformations happen as quickly as they look?+
A photo cannot show how long treatment took. Timing varies widely, and healing, gum care and lab stages can stretch care over many months or longer.
Could I end up with teeth that look too perfect?+
Shape, shade and arrangement are discussed during planning, and provisional work can help you judge appearance. Tell the dentist if you prefer a natural look.
Is full-mouth reconstruction the same as veneers on every tooth?+
No. Reconstruction coordinates health, structure and function, and may draw on many treatments. Veneers may or may not be part of a particular plan.
