What is SmileLift, and How Does it Work?
SmileLift is a cosmetic procedure that enhances the appearance of the smile by assessing the mouth area for age lines, checking the corners of the mouth, and determining other factors. This can create a more youthful appearance by lifting the smile.
What Does a SmileLift Procedure Involve?
Typically, a SmileLift procedure may require multiple visits, depending on the amount of work a patient needs and specific tools and methods. Therefore, you can expect to see an improvement immediately after treatment.
Several non-invasive methods may include:
- Teeth Whitening: Professional teeth whitening treatments can brighten and rejuvenate the smile by removing stains and discoloration.
- Dental Bonding: Composite resin bonding may be used to repair chipped, cracked, or uneven teeth and improve overall symmetry.
- Porcelain Veneers: Thin shells of porcelain are specially designed to fit your teeth. They are then bonded to the front surfaces of the teeth to improve their color, shape, size, and alignment.
- Gum Contouring: Also known as gum reshaping, this procedure involves removing excess gum tissue to reveal more of the tooth structure and create a more balanced gum line.
Since SmileLift procedures are minimally invasive or nonsurgical, downtime is typically minimal, and patients can resume their normal activities shortly after treatment. However, some temporary swelling, bruising, or sensitivity may occur, which typically resolves within a few days to a week. Follow-up appointments may be scheduled to monitor progress and ensure optimal results.
