Smile Makeover in Bhopal
For anyone who smiles with their lips closed. One plan, drawn on screen first, so you see the result before we begin.
What is a smile makeover?
A smile makeover is one treatment plan that combines cosmetic and restorative dental work to improve how your smile looks. It covers crooked teeth, gaps, discolouration and an uneven gum line, and it is planned as a single design so the finished smile looks balanced.
You know the habit. You close your lips in photos, or cover your mouth when you laugh, or stand at the back at a wedding. Often it is not one thing. A front tooth is chipped, the colour is dull, and there is a gap or some crowding too.
Fixing each problem on its own can leave a smile that looks pieced together. So we look at the whole smile first. Then we choose the treatments, and the order they come in.
Dr. Saurabh Shrivastava plans every makeover at Smile Gallery. He is a prosthodontist and a Certified Digital Smile Designer (DSD). Not sure you need a makeover at all? Try our two-minute smile self-check first, then come in for a proper consultation.
Which treatments can a smile makeover combine?
A makeover can combine teeth whitening for colour, veneers or laminates for shape and small gaps, clear aligners or braces for alignment, crowns for teeth that need rebuilding, and laser gum contouring for an uneven gum line. Your plan includes only what your smile needs, often two or three of these.
Nobody needs all of them. Each one solves a different problem, and your plan keeps only the ones that matter to you. Every treatment has its own page if you want the detail.

How does Digital Smile Design work?
Digital Smile Design (DSD) is a planning method. We use photographs, video and a 3D scan of your teeth to design your new smile on a screen. You see a preview of the expected result, and can ask for changes, before any treatment begins.
Most people worry about one thing: what will it look like? You should not have to guess, so we show you first. Here is how it goes:
- Smile analysis: we look at your face, the alignment of your teeth and the way you smile.
- Photographs, video and scan: we take photos and a short video of your smile. An intraoral scanner then captures a 3D model of your teeth, so there are no messy impression trays.
- Digital design: we design your new smile on screen, so you can see how the finished result is expected to look.
- Preview and changes: you look at the design and talk through any changes with Dr. Saurabh before treatment starts.
- 3D model: a model of the planned result shows how the new teeth fit together when you bite, so you know what the treatment will do.
The same design guides every treatment in your plan, whether that is whitening, veneers or aligners. If gum reshaping is part of your plan, we do it with a BIOLASE laser.
Who is a smile makeover for?
A smile makeover suits adults with healthy teeth and gums who are unhappy with how their smile looks, especially when there is more than one concern: stained, chipped, gapped or crooked teeth, or an uneven gum line.
Maybe you have a wedding coming up, or a new job, or you are just tired of hiding. Either way, a makeover may suit you if you:
- have several concerns at once, such as chipped, cracked or stained teeth;
- have gaps between your teeth that change how your smile looks;
- have crooked or misaligned teeth that take away from your smile;
- want to feel more confident when you smile and talk.
If only one thing bothers you, such as a single stained tooth or yellowing across all your teeth, you may not need a full makeover. One treatment, such as teeth whitening, may be enough. We decide that together at the consultation, and the plan is built around healthy teeth and gums.
How many visits does a smile makeover take?
A makeover that combines two or three procedures usually takes 2 to 4 visits over a few weeks. The exact number depends on what is in your plan. Clear aligners take longer, with several visits over 3 to 12 months.
It helps to know what you are signing up for, so here is the typical visit count for each part of a plan:
- Digital Smile Design consultation and planning: 1 visit, about 30 to 45 minutes.
- Teeth whitening: 1 to 2 visits.
- Composite bonding: 1 visit for a tooth or a group of teeth.
- Porcelain veneers: 2 to 3 visits (preparation, trial and bonding).
- Gum contouring: 1 visit.
- Clear aligners: multiple visits over 3 to 12 months.
We set out your own timeline in the design session, once we know which treatments are in your plan.

Frequently Asked Questions
Straight answers to what patients ask us. Anything else, message us on WhatsApp.
What is included in a smile makeover?
It is a plan made of the treatments your smile needs. That can mean teeth whitening, veneers or laminates, clear aligners or braces, crowns and laser gum contouring. Most plans use two or three of these, not all of them. We decide the mix after your Digital Smile Design consultation.
Can I see my new smile before treatment starts?
Yes. With Digital Smile Design we design your new smile on screen from photographs, video and a 3D scan of your teeth. You see the expected result and can talk through changes with Dr. Saurabh Shrivastava before any treatment begins.
How many visits does a smile makeover take?
A makeover that combines two or three procedures usually takes 2 to 4 visits over a few weeks. Clear aligners take longer, with several visits over 3 to 12 months. We map out your timeline in the design session.
Do I need a full makeover, or is one treatment enough?
It depends on how much you want to change. If one thing stands out, such as stained teeth, a single treatment may be enough. A makeover makes sense when several concerns together affect how your smile looks. You can check your smile first, then confirm at a consultation.
Can a smile makeover fix crooked teeth without braces?
For mildly crooked or uneven front teeth, veneers can change how the teeth look without moving them. Veneers do not move tooth roots or correct the bite. If you have more crowding or a bite problem, we do clear aligners or braces first, and veneers can finish the look afterwards if needed.
How long do the results of a smile makeover last?
It depends on the treatments used and on how you look after your teeth. Porcelain veneers typically last 10 to 15 years with proper care, and composite veneers 5 to 7 years. Good oral hygiene and regular check-ups help every part of the plan last longer.
Is Dr. Saurabh a certified Digital Smile Designer?
Yes. Dr. Saurabh Shrivastava (BDS, MDS Prosthodontics, DCI A-04860) is a Certified Digital Smile Designer (DSD), and he plans every smile makeover at Smile Gallery.
