Smile Design in Bayside, Queens
A smile makeover is more than cosmetics — it's a fully personalized plan built around your face, goals, and lifestyle. We combine treatments artistically to create a result that's uniquely yours.
About This Treatment
Your smile, designed from the ground up.
Smile design — sometimes called a smile makeover — is the process of combining multiple cosmetic and restorative treatments to completely transform how your smile looks and functions. The difference between a generic cosmetic treatment and a true smile design is planning: we map your facial proportions, analyze your bite, assess gum symmetry, and use digital design tools to build a virtual preview of your result before any tooth is touched. You see your new smile first. Then we build it.
Patients in Bayside, Whitestone, Fresh Meadows, and throughout Northern Queens who are serious about their smile come to Thrive Dental because we approach cosmetic dentistry as a discipline, not an upsell. Our smile design consultations are comprehensive — we photograph your face from multiple angles, take a full digital scan with iTero, and use smile design software to model your result in proportion to your face shape and skin tone. Common combinations include teeth whitening + veneers for patients who want dramatic color and shape changes, Invisalign + whitening + bonding for alignment-focused cases, or full arch veneers for complete transformations. Whatever the combination, every element is planned to look like it belongs — because the best cosmetic dentistry is invisible as dentistry.
Key Benefits
What makes this treatment worth it.
See It Before We Build It
Digital smile design shows you the result before any tooth is touched. You approve the design — then we execute it.
Fully Personalized
No cookie-cutter templates. Every element — shade, shape, length, gum line — is chosen to complement your specific face.
Function + Aesthetics
A great smile design always addresses bite balance and long-term durability — not just what it looks like on day one.
Common Questions
Everything you need to know.
What is included in a smile design consultation?
We take clinical photos, a digital scan, and facial measurements. Using smile design software, we create a digital mockup showing your new smile. We then discuss which treatments achieve that result, the treatment sequence, timeline, and total investment.
How long does a full smile makeover take?
It depends on which treatments are involved. A whitening and bonding combination can be done in 2–3 visits over a few weeks. A comprehensive makeover involving Invisalign and veneers may take 12–18 months.
Can I choose the shade of my new smile?
Absolutely. Shade selection is one of the most important parts of the design process. We use a shade guide along with your skin tone and personal preferences to select a shade that looks naturally beautiful — not artificially bright.
Does smile design address function too?
Always. An ideal result is one where your bite is balanced, your gums are healthy, and your teeth can withstand normal chewing forces. We never sacrifice function for aesthetics.
How much does a smile makeover cost in Bayside, NY?
Costs vary widely depending on the treatments involved. We provide a detailed cost breakdown at your consultation and offer financing through CareCredit with flexible monthly payment options.
