Smile Makeovers in Duncanville, TX
What is a Smile Makeover?
Do you wish you could design your ideal smile? That’s exactly what Dr. Singla does with each smile makeover here at Singla Dental. We can address any smile concerns you might have, whether it’s whitening up stains, fixing chips or missing teeth, or even straightening things out.
Think of it as a personalized upgrade to your smile. You tell Dr. Singla what kind of look you’re going for, and he puts together a plan to get you there. It can involve treatments like whitening, veneers, Invisalign or even dental implants, to give you that Hollywood smile.
Why should you consider a smile makeover?
A smile makeover is a great option for a few reasons. First, it can give you a real confidence boost. If you’re hiding your smile because of chips, stains, or gaps, a makeover can give you a smile you’ll love to show off. And let’s be honest, a confident smile can do wonders in all areas of life!
But it’s not all about looks. Smile makeovers can also address functional problems that might be affecting your oral health. For instance, chipped teeth can make chewing uncomfortable, and misaligned bites can lead to jaw pain. A makeover can fix these issues and leave you with a smile that’s both healthy and beautiful.
So, whether you want to look and feel more confident or address some underlying dental issues, a smile makeover could be a great option!
“I had a wonderful experience at this practice. Dr. Singla provided me with different treatment options that would work best for ME – I needed to get Invisalign done before my wedding in less than a year, and he was able to cater an efficient treatment plan that worked for my timeline. I was very happy with my smile on my wedding day 🙂 He is also very thorough and gentle which I appreciated. His staff is welcoming and friendly. I am thankful that I found this practice!”

Is it the right choice for me?
If your smile isn’t quite what you’d like it to be, a makeover can address a whole bunch of issues:
- Stubborn stains from medication, coffee or tea that whitening just won’t lift.
- Chipped or cracked teeth from an old mishap
- Gummy smiles
- Misaligned teeth
- Missing teeth
- Gum disease
It’s also a great option if you’re having trouble chewing or dealing with jaw pain because of misaligned or missing teeth. A full mouth reconstruction can address those functional issues while giving you a smile you love.

Some of the more common procedures included in a smile makeover include:
- Dental implants: These are tiny titanium posts surgically placed in your jaw to act as artificial tooth roots. They provide a super strong foundation for crowns or bridges, giving you a natural-looking and fully functional replacement for missing teeth.
- Teeth Whitening: We offer Zoom Teeth Whitening – the world’s most popular whitening system, offering a safe and long-lasting way to brighten your teeth by up to 10 shades in just one appointment!
- Veneers: These are thin shells of porcelain bonded to the front of your teeth. They’re perfect for covering chips,cracks, gaps, severe discoloration, or even slightly misaligned teeth to create a uniform, beautiful smile.
- Crowns and bridge work: Crowns are caps that entirely cover a damaged or weak tooth, restoring its strength and shape. Bridges use crowns to anchor artificial teeth in place, essentially “bridging” the gap left by missing teeth.
- Amalgam filling removal: This replaces your old metal fillings with tooth-colored composite fillings, improving the aesthetics of your smile and potentially reducing sensitivity.
- Inlays and onlays: These are stronger, custom-made fillings used for larger areas of tooth decay or damage. They offer more durability and support compared to regular fillings.
- Composite Bonding: This uses a tooth-colored resin to fix minor chips, cracks, gaps, or improve the shape of your teeth. It’s a good option for smaller cosmetic concerns.
Gum Disease Treatment: This addresses inflammation and infection of the gum tissue. It can involve deep cleaning, medication, or even minor surgery depending on the severity. Healthy gums are essential for a beautiful and healthy smile!
Extractions: Sometimes, a tooth can’t be saved and needs to be removed. Extractions pave the way for replacement options like implants or bridges.
Full or Partial Dentures: These are removable replacements for missing teeth. Full dentures cover all your teeth on either the upper or lower jaw, while partials fill in gaps where some natural teeth remain.
