Treatment starts with photographs, a scan, and a discussion of your priorities. From that, a proposal is prepared, usually including a preview of the intended result, so expectations are established before any treatment begins.
Smile Makeover in Chino, CA
About Smile Makeover
A smile makeover is a plan rather than a single procedure. It may combine alignment, whitening, bonding, or restorations, and the sequence matters as much as the individual treatments chosen.
Staging the treatment
Many makeovers can be staged over months rather than completed at once, which spreads cost and allows you to live with each change. Some sequences have a fixed order, such as alignment before veneers or gum health before bonded work.
What a consultation involves
A consultation is a discussion and an assessment. You are under no obligation to proceed, and it is reasonable to take the proposal away and think about it.
