Making Over Smiles in Chicago
Feeling confident about the appearance of your smile is an important factor in a happy, healthy lifestyle. It can play a key role in your social and professional interactions with others. The right cosmetic treatment options can transform your smile and boost your smile confidence. There are several factors to consider when planning a smile makeover to ensure the best possible outcome:
- The health of your teeth and gums: is there existing gum disease, tooth damage, or decay?
- The function and fit of the bite: do you have malocclusion or a bite problem that could eventually compromise your results?
- Your overall health and wellness: do you have any medical conditions that could affect gum health or oral health down the road?
- Your aesthetic goals: what bothers you most about your smile, and what would you like to achieve with treatment?

Our goal is to provide treatment that supports both the aesthetics and long-term health of your smile. We want your outcome to look great and feel great.
