Full Smile Makeovers

Your confidence in the health and beauty of your smile has an enormous impact on every aspect of your life. If years of wear, damage, or delayed dental care have left you self-conscious about your teeth, a full smile makeover may be the solution.

Dr. Michael Zhou understands how life-changing a smile transformation can be. With personalized restorative and cosmetic dentistry at our Ellicott City dental office, we can help you reclaim the healthy, beautiful smile you know you were born to have

What Is a Full Smile Makeover?

A full smile makeover is a comprehensive treatment plan that addresses multiple dental issues. Whether your concerns are purely cosmetic, such as discoloration or uneven teeth, or complex dental problems, like missing or damaged teeth, our smile makeovers offer solutions tailored just for you.

Beyond boosting confidence, a smile makeover can improve oral health by addressing structural issues, correcting bite problems, and preventing further dental complications.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does insurance cover a full smile makeover?

The answer depends on the specific treatments included in your smile makeover and your insurance plan. Dental insurance generally distinguishes between cosmetic and restorative services, and coverage will vary.

Insurance Coverage for Full Smile Makeovers

Cosmetic Dental Treatments

Procedures like teeth whitening, porcelain veneers, and gum contouring are typically considered cosmetic because they enhance appearance rather than restore function. Insurance does not usually cover these treatments.

Restorative Treatments

Restorative procedures such as dental crowns, bridges, implants, or fillings often address functional and health-related issues. Insurance plans may provide partial coverage for these treatments if they’re considered medically necessary. For example, replacing a missing tooth or restoring a damaged tooth is more likely to be covered than a purely cosmetic improvement.

Full Smile Makeovers Technology

Nitrous Oxide

If you feel nervous about dental care, nitrous oxide sedation, commonly known as laughing gas, provides a safe, effective way to relax during treatment. It is administered through a soft nose mask and offers a calming effect while keeping you awake and aware. The effects wear off quickly after your appointment, so you can resume your day without lingering drowsiness.
