Smile makeover
Smile makeover in Koothattukulam
A smile makeover can use one treatment or a mix, depending on what bothers you. We start with a consultation, scan your teeth and show you a preview before you decide.
Start with what bothers you
Veneers or bonding
| Composite bonding | Porcelain veneers | |
|---|---|---|
| What it is | Tooth-coloured resin shaped on the tooth | Thin shells made in a lab and fixed to the front of the tooth |
| Visits | Often one | Usually two or more |
| Tooth preparation | Little or none | A thin layer of enamel is usually removed |
| Staining | Can stain over time | More resistant to stains |
| Lasting | Can chip or wear, and is usually easy to repair | Generally lasts longer |

Your dentist will explain which suits your teeth, your bite and your budget.
How we plan your smile
- Consultation. Dr. Alka looks at your teeth and gums and asks what you would like to change.
- iTero scan and preview. You see a simulation of your likely result on screen.
- Your options. We explain the choices, how long they take and what they cost, including EMI.
- Treatment. We treat your teeth in the order that suits them.
Gum disease and decay are treated first, because a good result starts with healthy teeth and gums.
Questions about smile makeover
Can I combine treatments?
Yes. For example, some people straighten their teeth with Invisalign and then have bonding or veneers to refine the shape. Dr. Alka will suggest what suits you.
What does the consultation include?
It includes the iTero scan, a preview of your likely result and time with the doctor.
Will the preview be exactly what I get?
The preview is a projection to help you plan. Individual results vary, and Dr. Alka will advise you on what is possible for your teeth.
Can I pay in instalments?
EMI is available with Bajaj Finserv EMI Network, subject to approval.
This page gives general information. Your own treatment depends on an examination by your dentist. Individual results vary.
