YOUR SMILE MAKEOVER CONSULTATION APPOINTMENT
The first step to your flawless smile makeover plan is visiting our office for a smile consultation.
Our Jacksonville Beach cosmetic dentist begins by taking approximately 18 digital photos. Then we carefully examine your smile, facial symmetry, lip support, alignment, and facial aesthetics.
Then, we carefully listen what your goals are, and we review your photos. If you like, bring some of your favorite smiles be they celebrities, family, or friends. We encourage you to bring pictures along for us to look at. Using these photos and your cosmetic goals as our guide, we can begin to design a custom cosmetic dentistry plan to help you transform your flawed teeth into gorgeous smiles.
We use our state-of-the-art technology to create your treatment options. We can also show you before and after images of our patients, so you can get a better understanding of what to expect from various cosmetic treatments.
We take the time to walk you through all of your treatment options, pricing, answer your questions, and address other concerns to ensure you feel completely confident with your plan before we begin your cosmetic treatments.
SMILE MAKEOVER OPTIONS
The first step of any cosmetic dentistry plan is to ensure your smile is healthy. If there are any areas of decay or damage, we will repair these before moving forward with any cosmetic dentistry services.
Next, we’ll create a cosmetic smile makeover plan that fits your schedule and budget while delivering the flawless results you’re after. We work with you to design your dream smile and make it a reality.
A makeover involves a combination of cosmetic dental procedures tailored to meet your aesthetic goals. Here’s a closer look at some of the most popular treatments:
Dr. Shelby Sox and our dentistry team use advanced technology and modern techniques to give you high-quality results in a short amount of time.
Teeth Whitening
Professional teeth whitening removes layers of stains and discoloration, appearing brighter and more youthful as a result. In-office whitening uses high-concentration bleaching gels that are activated by light technology, achieving significant results in just one session. Home kits prescribed by dentists can also be used for convenience, though they may take longer to achieve the desired results.
Invisalign
Ideal for adults and teens who want a less noticeable alternative to traditional braces, Invisalign uses a sequence of removable aligners to gradually straighten teeth. Each aligner is worn for about two weeks before moving on to the next in the series, slowly moving teeth into the desired position. Invisalign is not only discreet but also allows for easier cleaning and eating compared to traditional braces.
Porcelain Veneers
Veneers are slim shells of ceramic material bonded to the front surfaces of teeth. They can transform your smile by concealing discoloration, chips, gaps, or misshapen teeth. Porcelain veneers are custom-made to blend in with your natural teeth and last for decades with care. They are resistant to stains and imitate the light-reflecting properties of natural teeth.
Dental Crowns
Crowns protect the entire visible portion of a tooth above the gum line and are used to restore severely damaged or decayed teeth. They may be made from materials like porcelain, ceramic, or composite resin. Dental crowns strengthen and protect the tooth while improving its appearance by color-matching to your natural teeth.
Cosmetic Bonding
This is a cost-effective procedure where a tooth-colored resin is used to improve tooth appearance. Teeth bonding is great for minor cosmetic issues such as small chips, cracks, or gaps between teeth. While generally not as durable as veneers or crowns, it is a reversible treatment that can usually be completed in a single visit.
Gum Contouring
Sometimes referred to as gum reshaping, this procedure involves sculpting the gum line to enhance the appearance of your smile by showing more of your teeth. It’s often recommended for those who feel their gums are too prominent or uneven. Laser technology can perform this procedure with minimal discomfort and a quick healing time.
Each of these cosmetic dental procedures can be used alone or in combination to create a comprehensive smile makeover. During your consultation, a Jax Beach dentist at Eccella Smiles will discuss which options are best for your specific needs, ensuring a tailored approach to achieve the beautiful, lasting results you desire.
Benefits of a Smile Makeover
A smile makeover goes beyond merely enhancing your appearance; it also offers benefits like:
Improved Oral Health
While the goal of a smile makeover is to enhance the aesthetics of your smile, many of the procedures also enhance your oral health. Straightening misaligned teeth, for instance, makes them easier to clean, decreasing the risk of cavities and gum disease. Replacing missing teeth with implants averts bone loss and maintains the structure of your jaw.
Boosted Self-Esteem and Confidence
A bright, symmetrical smile can drastically boost your self-confidence. Many patients report feeling more outgoing and more willing to smile after their makeover. This newfound confidence can positively affect many facets of your life, including social interactions, professional opportunities, and personal relationships.
Enhanced Mental Health
The psychological impact of improving your smile should not be underestimated. Feeling good about your appearance can reduce feelings of stress and anxiety, and a confident smile can also lead to increased happiness and satisfaction in life, as it often encourages a more positive outlook.
Pain Relief and Improved Function
A smile makeover can also address functional issues that may cause pain or discomfort, such as a misaligned bite, which leads to TMJ disorders and headaches. Correcting these issues can not only relieve pain but enhance your ability to chew and speak properly.
Long-Lasting Effects
With modern dental techniques and materials, the results of a smile makeover can be long-lasting, giving you a beautiful smile for many years. With the right care and dental check-ups, the effects of treatments like veneers, whitening, and crowns can maintain your smile’s aesthetics for a long time.
Social and Professional Benefits
A pleasing smile can make a positive first impression, which is invaluable in social situations and professional settings. Studies show that individuals with attractive smiles are perceived as friendlier, intelligent, and successful. Enhancing your smile can, therefore, open doors to new social opportunities and career advancements.

Frequently Asked Questions About Smile Makeovers
What Is a Smile Makeover?
A smile makeover is a comprehensive process of improving your smile’s appearance through one or more cosmetic procedures. The treatments used in your smile makeover will depend on your unique dental and aesthetic goals.
How Do I Know If I Need a Smile Makeover?
You might consider a smile makeover if you are unhappy with any aspect of your smile. Common concerns include discolored, misaligned, missing, or unevenly sized teeth. The best way to determine if a smile makeover is right for you is to consult with a cosmetic dentist who will evaluate your oral health and discuss your cosmetic goals.
How Long Will a Smile Makeover Take?
A smile makeover timeline varies depending on the procedures in your treatment plan and the complexity of each case. Some treatments, like teeth whitening, are completed in a single visit, while others, such as orthodontics or dental implants, take several months to a year.
Is a Smile Makeover Painful?
Most cosmetic dental procedures involve minimal discomfort. We may use local anesthesia to numb the treatment area and ensure patient comfort during procedures that might cause discomfort. For more extensive treatments, sedation options are available to make the experience as pain-free as possible.
Are the Results of a Smile Makeover Permanent?
Many smile makeover treatments offer long-lasting results. Porcelain veneers, for instance, can last up to 15 years or longer with proper care. Dental implants can last a lifetime. However, maintaining the results of your smile makeover will require good oral hygiene practices, regular dental visits, and, in some cases, lifestyle adjustments to avoid damaging your new smile.
How Much Does a Smile Makeover Cost?
The cost associated with treatment varies widely depending on the types and number of procedures required. Some treatments may be covered by your dental insurance if they are deemed medically necessary, while others are considered elective and must be paid out-of-pocket. We provide a detailed cost estimate during your consultation and discuss financing options to make your treatment more affordable.
Do Smile Makeovers Improve Oral Health?
Yes, in many cases, the procedures involved in a smile makeover also improve your oral health. For example, replacing missing teeth with implants helps prevent bone loss, and aligning crooked teeth makes them easier to clean and floss, reducing the risk of cavities and gum disease.
Our customized smile makeovers combine artistry and advanced dental care to create the stunning, confident smile you’ve always wanted.
