Is a smile makeover right for you?
Medically reviewed July 2026 by
Dr Theodora Bravi
GDC-Registered Specialist in Prosthodontist
SUITABLE FOR:
- People who dislike how their teeth look in photos or on video calls
- Anyone with several cosmetic concerns – such as crooked teeth, gaps, chips or discolouration
- Patients who want a natural‑looking result rather than an obvious “Hollywood” smile
What is a Smile Makeover?
A smile makeover is a personalised course of cosmetic dental treatment designed to improve how your teeth look when you smile and speak. Instead of looking at each tooth in isolation, Dr Theodora Bravi considers your whole smile – tooth shape and colour, gum line, lip position and bite – and builds a plan that fits your priorities, timetable and budget.
A smile makeover is tailored to you; it might involve simple whitening and bonding, or a fuller plan using Invisalign, veneers and other cosmetic treatments.
Your plan might include:
- Invisalign to gently straighten teeth and improve crowding
- Teeth whitening to lift the overall shade
- Composite bonding or porcelain veneers to refine edges, close small gaps and repair chipped teeth
- Selective use of crowns or implants where teeth are very worn or missing

Smile design with iTero 3D scanning
We use digital smile design to plan your veneer treatment carefully before anything permanent is done.
- iTero 3D scanning to record your teeth and bite without messy impressions
- Digital simulations to show how straightening, whitening and bonding could change your smile
- Ability to compare options for closing gaps, restoring worn teeth and improving symmetry
- A clearer idea of timescales and likely results so you can make confident decisions

Our smile makeover process
When dental problems cannot wait, we provide prompt, reassuring care to relieve discomfort, address the cause and protect your oral health.
-
01
Consultation with Dr Bravi
You will meet with Dr Theodora Bravi, our specialist prosthodontist, to discuss what you would like to change, from fixing chipped teeth to brightening your smile or aligning your front teeth. We take photos and an iTero scan so she can study your teeth in detail.
-
02
Smile design and treatment options
Drawing on the scan and images, Dr Bravi maps out different ways to reach your goals – for example “align, brighten, bond” (Invisalign, whitening, composite bonding) or whitening plus porcelain veneers for selected teeth. You will see a proposed sequence, timescales and fee guide.
-
03
Treatment phase
Your agreed plan is carried out in stages, often starting with Invisalign or other alignment, then whitening, followed by bonding, veneers or crowns to perfect the final shape and symmetry. Appointments are timed around your schedule as far as possible.
-
04
Review and maintenance
Once your smile makeover is complete, we review your final result, provide retainers if teeth have been straightened, and agree a maintenance plan so your new smile stays looking its best.
Cosmetic focus with restorative options when needed
Most smile makeovers at Thames Dental & Skin focus on cosmetic goals such as:
- Whitening and brightening a dull or uneven smile
- Closing small gaps between teeth and improving symmetry
- Correcting chipped, cracked or worn edges
- Refining the length and shape of front teeth
For some people, full mouth cosmetic dentistry is also needed to restore function and long‑term strength. This can include carefully planned use of crowns, bridges or dental implants to replace missing teeth or rebuild very worn bites. When this is the case, Dr Bravi draws on her prosthodontic expertise to blend cosmetic and restorative treatments into a single, coherent plan.
