A smile makeover is sometimes referred to as instant orthodontics, but in fact a smile makeover can achieve much more than orthodontics. While orthodontia can reposition your existing teeth over 18-24 months with the use of braces it cannot change the color, size or shape of your existing teeth. This is where a smile makeover has a distinct advantage. With porcelain veneers you can change the color, size, shape and positioning of your teeth and create a whole new smile. Not to mention the fact that it can be done in as little as two weeks!
Also many patients had orthodontics in their teenage years and as adults what is most often required is not more orthodontia, but perfect porcelain veneers to give you a complete smile makeover.
