Smile Makeover in Melbourne, FL

Throughout your life, you may have experienced accidents, dental problems, or other difficulties that have all-in-all led your smile to be less than perfect. A smile makeover at Sangiv I. Patel, D.D.S., PA is a personalized treatment plan of cosmetic and restorative dental procedures that will help improve the appearance of your teeth and the overall health of your mouth. A smile makeover could include teeth whitening (at-home or in-office treatments), porcelain veneers, teeth straightening, dental bonding and contouring, or replacing old metal fillings with composite resin. Your smile makeover could also include dental restorations, like dental crowns or dental bridges, to replace a missing tooth or teeth. If you are interested in improving your smile so that it can be both beautiful and healthy, schedule a consultation with experienced dentist Dr. Sangiv I. Patel at his office in Melbourne, FL to receive your personalized plan.

A smile makeover can help if you want to improve the appearance of your teeth or if you require several restorative or cosmetic procedures to reach your end goal. Dr. Patel will customize your smile makeover plan to fulfill your concerns and aims. Your smile makeover could consist of teeth whitening to correct stains and discoloration on your enamel, porcelain veneers, and dental bonding and contouring to improve the shape and length of your teeth and cover small gaps. Dental restorations (dental crowns and dental bridges) may be needed to replace a missing tooth or teeth. At our facility, we utilize custom-made restorations so that they blend in with your regular teeth for a seamless finish.

Before you have cosmetic procedures, Dr. Patel will need to make sure your teeth and gums are healthy. If you have any prohibitive oral health problems, like a misaligned bite or gum disease, then these will need to be addressed first.

Every smile makeover is customized to the individual patient so Dr. Patel will go over what to expect during your treatment plan, including how many appointments you may need. He will help you map your appointment(s) to complete each one of the procedures of your smile makeover. Local anesthesia may be used during some of the procedures; however, other sedation choices can be included if you require help relaxing due to dental fears or anxieties. Throughout your smile makeover, Dr. Patel and his team will be accessible to answer any questions you may have.

Once your smile makeover is finished, you should maintain the health and appearance of your teeth with a good home oral care routine by brushing and flossing every day. In addition to everyday care, you should make appointments for annual dental exams and bi-annual cleanings at our practice so Dr. Patel can monitor your oral health. With appropriate maintenance, the results of your smile makeover should last for many years. Touch-up treatments every few years, like teeth whitening, may help to refresh your results. Veneers and restorations may also need to be repaired or replaced, which can all be discussed with Dr. Patel in your appointments.

At your consultation, Dr. Patel will help develop a smile makeover that fits both your needs and your budget. He can estimate the cost of your treatment plan and explain payment methods we accept, including medical financing. The cosmetic procedures in a smile makeover are typically not covered by insurance, but some restorations might be partially covered. A member of our team will call your insurance provider to determine your precise coverage and out-of-pocket costs.

We can help you get a smile you'll enjoy showing off with a customized smile makeover. During your initial consultation with Dr. Sangiv I. Patel, he will examine the cosmetic and restorative procedures that match your goals.
