Smile Makeovers

What is a Smile Makeover?

At Thornbury Dental Wellness Clinic, we believe that a beautiful smile can significantly boost your confidence and overall well-being. Our Smile Makeover service is designed to enhance the appearance of your smile through a combination of personalised cosmetic dentistry procedures.


Whether you're looking to fix minor imperfections or achieve a complete transformation, Dr Laurie Stumper can help you achieve the smile of your dreams.


Our smile makeovers are tailored to your individual needs and preferences. We start by understanding what you like or dislike about your smile or teeth. Here are some aspects we review and can improve:


Tooth Colour: Silver or amalgam dental fillings can be replaced with natural, tooth-coloured composite restorations. Teeth whitening can improve the colour of stained or dulled teeth. The shade selected for whitening or veneers is carefully evaluated to match your facial and hair tones, ensuring a natural yet bright smile.

Alignment and Spacing: Crooked, overlapping, or gapped teeth can be straightened and aligned through orthodontics or Invisalign. Veneers can also be used to enhance the appearance of these teeth.


Missing Teeth: Missing teeth can negatively impact your smile's appearance and bite and increase your risk of tooth decay. Replacing missing teeth with dental implants, bridges, or partial dentures is essential for maintaining oral health and facial aesthetics.


Harmony and Balance: Uneven, chipped, or cracked teeth can be improved with cosmetic bonding. A gummy smile can be recontoured for a balanced appearance.


Fuller Lips, Smile, and Cheeks: At our practice, we offer a range of aesthetic treatments to complement your dental care and enhance your natural beauty. Achieve a youthful look with Teoxane dermal fillers, perfect for adding volume to lips, cheeks, and more.


Aesthetic Components of a Smile Makeover


A smile makeover at Thornbury Dental Wellness Clinic goes beyond just improving the colour, alignment, and balance of your teeth. We focus on the aesthetic zone of your smileā€”the upper and lower teeth visible when you smile and evaluate several key attributes to ensure a harmonious and beautiful result.


Tooth Length: Long teeth contribute to a youthful appearance. Ageing often results in shorter teeth due to wear and tear, and a gummy smile can make teeth appear even shorter. To address this, we may reshape and lengthen the front central teeth using composite bonding or porcelain veneers. For gummy smiles, laser dentistry procedures can modify the gum line to enhance the length of the teeth. In some cases, crown lengthening by a periodontist may be necessary. Properly lengthened teeth can also influence your overall facial appearance, providing a slimming effect for round-faced individuals.


Smile Line: The smile line is an imaginary line that follows the edges of your upper teeth from side to side. Ideally, it should match the curve of your lower lip when you smile. This reference point helps determine the optimal length for your new teeth, ensuring a natural and balanced look.


Tooth Proportions: A pleasing smile often features dominant central front teeth with a width-to-length ratio of 4-to-5. This proportion guides the size and shape of other teeth in the aesthetic zone, ensuring that the smile line appears balanced and harmonious.


Tooth Texture and Characterisation: Our artistic dentists can customise the texture and characterisation of your crowns or veneers to create a more feminine or masculine appearance. This includes matching the look and feel of natural teeth or replicating the aesthetics of teeth you admire from photographs.


Investing in a smile makeover is an investment in your confidence and overall well-being. Our smile makeover options, such as porcelain veneers, composite bonding, clear aligners (Invisalign, Spark Aligners, Clear Correct), and professional teeth whitening, are available to address various cosmetic concerns. Whether you're looking to correct misalignments, enhance tooth shape and colour, or achieve a complete transformation, our comprehensive approach ensures that you receive the best care and results.
