The Benefits of a Smile Makeover

Personalized Treatment

Because no two smiles are alike, no two smile makeovers are alike. Every smile makeover created by our dentist is specifically designed to address the unique needs of each individual patient.

Convenience

A smile makeover combines multiple cosmetic treatments to address the entire smile in one comprehensive plan. This approach can be more efficient and more affordable than undergoing multiple procedures individually.

Amazing Results

Our results speak for themselves. Even patients with severe smile issues are able to achieve a bright, symmetrical, healthy-looking smile through cosmetic dentistry at our Kansas City practice.

Steps Involved in a Smile Makeover

Matthew A. Turner DDS, PC, can develop an individualized smile makeover treatment plan to address virtually any concern. These procedures can improve the appearance, function, and health of your teeth and gums. Dr. Turner and his team of compassionate dental professionals have the experience, knowledge, and skill to help patients love their smiles.

What Is a Smile Makeover?

A smile makeover is a custom-designed treatment plan that combines multiple dentistry treatments to address several cosmetic flaws at once. Our cosmetic dentist, Matthew A. Turner, D.D.S., P.C., is highly skilled at identifying and implementing the treatments necessary to artfully create stunning smiles. This comprehensive treatment addresses concerns such as yellowed teeth, chipped or cracked teeth, and minor alignment issues. Your personal makeover may include teeth whitening, porcelain veneers, gum contouring, and Invisalign® to give you the brilliant, confident smile that you desire.

Smile Makeovers: Planning & Design

If you are unhappy with the appearance of your smile, Dr. Turner can create a custom-tailored smile makeover to suit your individual needs and goals. Using a combination of digital scans, models, and digital simulations, our team can give you a preview of your new smile before beginning treatment. During a visit to our office, you can learn more about transforming your appearance and boosting your confidence with a smile makeover.

What Procedures Can a Smile Makeover Include?

Any two or more of the following may be included in your personalized treatment plan. Depending on your goals and current oral health, Dr. Turner may recommend additional procedures such as dental implants or root canal therapy

Teeth Whitening

We offer professional in-office teeth whitening treatments and take-home whitening treatments. Whitening is typically performed prior to other procedures such as veneers so that your restorations will match the new, whiter shade of your smile.

Explore Teeth Whitening

Porcelain Veneers

Porcelain veneers are custom-crafted shells of porcelain that can lengthen or reshape the teeth, mask wide spaces between teeth, and cover chips or cracks. Veneers can also be used to whiten teeth with intrinsic stains that do not respond to professional teeth whitening methods.

Explore Veneers

Dental Bonding

This simple procedure is a more affordable alternative to porcelain veneers. Using tooth-colored composite resin, we can conceal the minor imperfections giving you major feelings of self-consciousness.

Explore Bonding

Invisalign

These clear mouthpieces can be used to correct alignment issues that may affect your oral health as well as the aesthetics of your smile. Invisalign® is a great alternative to traditional braces that is both discreet and removable. You can eat the foods you want, brush and floss normally, and never worry about bulky metal hardware.

Explore Invisalign

Gum Contouring

Cosmetic contouring can be performed to improve the appearance of a “gummy” smile or create a more even gum line by carefully removing small amounts of tissue.

Explore Gum Contouring

Tooth-Colored Fillings

Patients who received silver amalgam fillings in the past may wish to have those fillings replaced with tooth-colored composite fillings to blend with their smile. If you need to fill a cavity, this solution can protect your smile while looking natural.

All Restorations Made Locally!

While other dentists may partner with cheap overseas dental labs to fabricate restorations, Dr. Turner has an excellent relationship with a local, high-quality laboratory that expertly crafts all of our veneers, crowns, and other dental restorations.

Your Smile Makeover Deserves Personalized Care

A smile makeover is a very personal transformation that our dental practice can provide with artistry, skill, and compassion. Our job is to realize your goals, and we look forward to working with you to achieve the results you have always wanted.

Our practice is privately owned, unlike many corporate dental offices that are opening in town. When patients come to the practice of Matthew A.

Everyone in this office is amazing! My entire family has gone to Dr. Turner for 25 years! They were just as wonderful with my small children as they are with my elderly mother.  They know you by your first name and are very pleasant. They also have a real person that answers the phone, not a recording!!! A rare find these days.

At a time when corporate dental practices are on the rise, Dr. Matthew Turner is proud to be a privately owned dental office that has been making Kansas City smile for more than 30 years.

Painless, Stress-Free Shots with Computer-Controlled Anesthetic

Thanks to our computer-controlled anesthetic delivery system, even the youngest patients experience pain-free and worry-free shots. Oftentimes, patients are astonished to find out that we have already numbed the treatment area. The system is so effective that patients can leave our dental office and return to their busy day without lingering effects like numbness.

Smile Makeover Candidacy

Patients interested in cosmetic dentistry should be in good oral health. Any serious dental problems such as missing teeth, gum disease, or tooth decay should be treated prior to undergoing cosmetic treatment. Our dentist can address these issues with dental implants, periodontal therapy, root canal treatment, and more.

For lasting results, patients should commit to good oral hygiene practices and undergo checkups with us every six months. Although a consultation at our office in Kansas City, MO, is the only way to determine candidacy, patients may find it helpful to review our smile makeover FAQs prior to their first visit.

​Smile Makeover Timeline What to Expect

Consultation

First, you will come to our office for an in-depth consultation with our Kansas City dentist. He will discuss your treatment options with you, and together you will select the dental procedures for your personalized treatment plan.

X-Rays

Your teeth will be cleaned and we will take x-rays. Dr. Turner will perform an exam and review the x-rays to ensure no underlying issues exist. If an issue is discovered, Dr. Turner will need to resolve it prior to your smile makeover.

Photos and Impressions

At the beginning of your makeover, we will take photos of your teeth and gums with our digital intraoral camera. Depending on your specific plan, we may take digital scans of your teeth with our comfortable and safe iTero Element 2 scanner for custom whitening trays, and Dr. Turner may create a diagnostic cast and wax-up for veneers.

Treatment

Dr. Turner prefers to perform multiple procedures within a single appointment to provide you with more efficient results. If needed, we may administer nitrous oxide through a SILHOUETTE low-profile nasal mask. If numbing is required, we use the advanced and gentle WAND device to painlessly deliver local anesthesia. This technique is combined with sodium bicarbonate, which allows the numbness to wear off faster. 

Smile!

Once your treatment is complete, you can expect to have a clean, youthful, and attractive smile to share with the world!

What Does a Smile Makeover Cost?

Because each makeover is a unique combination of multiple treatments, costs can vary widely from case to case. The only way to know for sure what enhancing your smile will cost is to see our Kansas City, MO, dentist in a consultation.

Dental insurance plans do not cover the costs of cosmetic dentistry unless they also happen to address a practical need (Invisalign can qualify under certain circumstances). However, to make cosmetic dentistry more accessible to all of his patients, Dr. Turner accepts financing plans through CareCredit®. If you have questions about the cost of dentistry or financing, we encourage you to contact our friendly Kansas City team today.

Why Kansas City Chooses Us

"I have been going to Dr Turner for almost thirty years and have been able to see him go from just opening his practice with one dental chair to having six. For me this says and tells me so much about the kind of Dentist he is. The staff makes you feel very comfortable the minute you walk through the door. Dr. Turner has the ability to make you forget where you are with his corny jokes and his mild mannerisms. Some of his Smile Makeovers that I’ve viewed in his office are so impressive…who would of thought those patients ever had any dental issues! I would highly recommend Dr. Turner to anyone that’s looking for a Great Office, Great Staff and a Great Smile!" Jan Bergsieker, 2021 5-Star Review
