Whether you are 25 or 55, your smile says a lot about you. And as the years go by, your teeth show the signs of a life well lived.<\/p>\n
When that starts to happen, some people feel it is “too late” to do anything about it. Others think cosmetic dentistry is flashy, or only for celebrities. Neither is true. At smilogy, we work with adults at every stage of life to help them feel good about their smile, and with a smile makeover, you choose the treatments that are right for you.<\/p>\n
Teeth naturally change over time. Years of coffee, tea and red wine can leave stains. Everyday wear can chip or flatten edges. Teeth can shift, especially if you had braces as a child and stopped wearing your retainer. And some people lose teeth along the way.<\/p>\n
None of this is anything to be embarrassed about. It is simply part of life, and there are options to help at any age, as long as your teeth and gums are healthy enough.<\/p>\n
Your smile is as individual as you are. There may be parts you love and parts you would like to change. Here are the most common things people come to us wanting, whatever their age.<\/p>\n
Your food and drink choices can catch up with you over the years, and there is no shame in that. Coffee, red wine and other everyday treats can lead to staining and discolouration.<\/p>\n
Professional teeth whitening, from $275, can help brighten your smile, either on its own or as part of a smile makeover. Learn more about whitening at edgecliff<\/a> or castle hill<\/a>.<\/p>\n If you have cracked, chipped or broken teeth, you may be used to hiding your smile. There are several ways to repair or conceal them. Veneers are a popular choice, and dental bonding and crowns are also options. Your 3D scan helps your dentist see which approach suits your teeth best.<\/p>\n If you are considering veneers, read everything you need to know about porcelain veneers<\/a>.<\/p>\n Maybe you had braces as a child and didn’t keep up with your retainer, or you never had them at all. It is a common myth that adults can’t straighten their teeth. Clear aligners can help adults with crooked or crowded teeth.<\/p>\n They fit well with adult life because they are discreet and can be taken out to eat, clean your teeth or for a special photo. Clear aligners start from $2,250 (lite), with standard plans at $3,850 and advanced plans at $4,850. Find out more at edgecliff<\/a> or castle hill<\/a>.<\/p>\n Losing a tooth as an adult can be upsetting, and gaps can make it harder to chew, eat or speak comfortably. We help people of all ages rebuild their smile. Dentures<\/a>, from $1,450, can replace missing teeth, and crowns ($975, zirconia) can restore damaged teeth, at edgecliff<\/a> or castle hill<\/a>. Your dentist will talk you through the options that suit your situation.<\/p>\n A smile makeover combines the treatments you choose into one personalised plan. Here is what to expect:<\/p>\n For a full walk-through, read our guide to a smile makeover<\/a>.<\/p>\n Changing your smile is a big decision at any age, so it helps to work with a team you trust. Here is what we think matters.<\/p>\n Your dentist has the qualifications and know-how, but your smile is yours. At smilogy, you are the co-designer of your smile, and you are part of the process at every step. We will never push you towards something you don’t want. You can choose modest changes or go further, and the level of change is up to you.<\/p>\n We don’t take a one-size-fits-all approach. Balance is beauty, and a good plan works in harmony with your face and features. That matters at every age, and it is why many people choose a natural-looking result over a dramatic one.<\/p>\n Digital scans, photos and planning mean we know what we are working with from the start. Some parts of treatment may be done from home through our online monitoring system, so you may need fewer visits to the clinic. Products such as whitening trays and aligners are sent to you within Australia.<\/p>\n A smile makeover at smilogy starts from $5,850. The exact figure depends on the treatments involved, and we confirm it at your consultation. Payment plans are available, and your private health cover may help with part of the cost. See our payment plans<\/a> and private health cover<\/a> pages.<\/p>\n There is no upper age limit. What matters most is the health of your teeth and gums, which your dentist will check first.<\/p>\n Yes. Clear aligners can help many adults with crooked or crowded teeth, including those whose teeth have moved since childhood braces.<\/p>\n That is the aim. Your plan is designed around your face and features, and you can preview it and ask for changes before you start.<\/p>\n No. You choose which treatments to have, and some people start small, for example with whitening.<\/p>\n Wherever you are in life, it is not too late to work towards the smile you want. Start with a consultation, 3D scan and photos at our Edgecliff or Castle Hill clinic, and we will help you design a plan that suits you.<\/p>\n Any invasive procedure carries risks. Before proceeding, you may wish to seek a second opinion from an appropriately qualified health practitioner.<\/p>\n Explore our smile makeover<\/a> and adult dentistry<\/a> pages, learn about veneers at edgecliff<\/a> or castle hill<\/a>, or book online<\/a> today.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Whether you’re 25 or 55, it’s not too late to change your smile.
