A smile makeover is a treatment plan built around the changes you want to make to your teeth. At The Tooth Co., Dr. Conor Perrin plans smile makeovers in Irvine, CA by discussing your goals and examining your oral health before recommending options. If veneers are suitable, eligible patients can try a temporary design through The Test Drive before committing to treatment.
You may want to address worn edges, color, gaps or the proportions of your teeth. A smile makeover can involve one treatment or a planned combination. We discuss the changes that matter to you, the condition of your teeth and the maintenance each option requires.
Possible options include porcelain veneers, Invisalign and professional teeth whitening. A consultation helps establish which, if any, are appropriate.
The Test Drive is a temporary 3D printed veneer preview designed to fit over your existing teeth without preparation in suitable cases. It gives you a way to see a proposed change and discuss how the design feels before making a permanent decision.
The preview is not your final veneer restoration. If you move forward, your teeth may still need shaping. Tooth size, positioning and crowding also affect whether the preview can fit, so not everyone qualifies.
Your consultation should help you understand the reasoning behind the plan. Ask which changes require preparation, whether alignment or whitening could address your concerns and what future maintenance involves. Learn about Dr. Conor Perrin’s approach before your visit.
Smile makeover cost depends on the treatments included, their sequence and the number of teeth involved. A consultation or Test Drive fee is different from the cost of the completed treatment plan.
The smile consultation costs $250, which is credited toward your treatment if you decide to proceed. The Test Drive costs an additional $650, and a 2D photo preview is available free of charge.
For a smile makeover, the practice recommends starting with eight teeth. Porcelain veneers start at $15,000; composite veneers start at approximately $10,000.
Porcelain veneer pricing includes design and lab work, all appointments, the veneers and a protective nightguard. Nitrous sedation, gum tissue manipulation, whitening and Invisalign alignment are charged separately.
Composite veneer pricing includes pre-laboratory design, chairside time with Dr. Perrin, bite adjustments and a protective nightguard. Whitening and Invisalign alignment are charged separately; repairs are not included.
No. A temporary preview can fit over unprepared teeth in selected cases, while final veneers may need space created through tooth preparation. We explain the distinction before you decide.
No. Tooth position, size and crowding affect suitability. We examine your teeth before confirming whether the preview is possible.
The Test Drive can include a take-home preview for suitable patients. We confirm availability, timing and wear instructions for your case at the consultation.
The preview is intended to help you decide. Ask about the consultation and Test Drive fees before booking, including what applies if you do not proceed.
