# Smile makeover

A smile makeover is a plan that combines more than one cosmetic treatment to improve how your smile looks. It is not a single procedure or a formal dental term.

A smile makeover is not one treatment. It is a plan that may combine several. Cosmetic dentistry is the branch of dentistry that focuses on improving the appearance of your smile. Common services include teeth whitening, dental bonding and veneers.

A plan is built around your goals and your oral health. Treatments in a plan might include [teeth whitening](https://towncenterdental.multisites.ai/glossary/teeth-whitening), [bonding](https://towncenterdental.multisites.ai/glossary/dental-bonding), [veneers](https://towncenterdental.multisites.ai/glossary/dental-veneers) or straightening teeth.

Because smile makeover is a general phrase, ask your dentist to list each step, how long it takes and what to expect. Our office describes this on its [smile makeover page](https://towncenterdental.multisites.ai/services/smile-makeover). Results depend on the person, and your dentist will talk with you about what is realistic.
