What Is It?

Understanding Smile Makeover

A smile makeover is a customised, coordinated treatment plan that combines two or more cosmetic and restorative dental procedures to achieve a comprehensive, harmonious smile transformation. Unlike single-treatment procedures, a smile makeover addresses multiple factors simultaneously — tooth colour, shape, size, symmetry, gum line, and alignment — and is designed in relation to the patient's facial proportions, skin tone, and personal aesthetics. At MEDICUS, every smile makeover begins with Digital Smile Design (DSD), allowing you to preview your new smile digitally before any irreversible treatment begins.

Who Is It For?

Is This Treatment Right for You?

A smile makeover is ideal for patients who are unhappy with multiple aspects of their smile simultaneously — for example, a combination of discoloured, misshapen, missing, and misaligned teeth. It is also appropriate for patients who have suffered dental neglect over many years and want comprehensive restoration. There is no minimum age — smile makeovers are designed for adults who want a permanent, full transformation.

What to Expect at MEDICUS

We believe informed patients have better outcomes. Here is every step of your Smile Makeover journey.

1

In-Depth Consultation & Smile Analysis

We take a full photographic and video series, digital scans, and X-rays. You walk us through your smile concerns and aspirations. We analyse your facial proportions, gum line, lip position, and tooth structure.

2

Digital Smile Design

Using DSD software, we digitally redesign your smile and overlay the plan on photographs of your face. You see exactly what your new smile will look like before we touch a single tooth.

3

Physical Mock-Up

Where applicable, a physical wax or composite mock-up is created directly in your mouth. You can smile, laugh, and see — and feel — the proposed changes. We refine until you approve every detail.

4

Comprehensive Treatment Plan

We present a written plan detailing every recommended procedure, the clinical sequence, timeline, and investment. We explain the why behind each step and discuss alternatives. No procedure begins without your full understanding and consent.

5

Treatment Execution

Treatments are carried out in the clinically optimal sequence — health before aesthetics (cleaning, fillings, gum treatment first), then structural work (crowns, implants), then cosmetic finishing (veneers, whitening). This ensures the best and longest-lasting result.

6

Final Reveal & Maintenance Plan

The last appointment is your reveal. We review every detail, make any final refinements, and photograph your completed smile. You leave with a personalised maintenance plan to protect your investment for years to come.

Aftercare Instructions

How to Care for Your Treatment

Following these instructions ensures the best healing and longest-lasting result.

1

Follow the aftercare specific to each treatment included in your makeover (whitening, veneers, implants, etc.)

2

Wear a custom night guard if any bruxism was identified during treatment — grinding is the single greatest risk to a completed smile makeover

3

Attend 6-month maintenance appointments as scheduled — the investment you have made is worth protecting

4

Brush twice daily with a soft-bristle toothbrush and non-abrasive toothpaste

5

Floss and use an interdental brush or water flosser daily — especially around crowns and implants

6

Contact us immediately if anything feels off — a loose restoration caught early is far easier to address than one left for months

I had my teeth fixed here. I cannot thank them enough — how great they are, and how very professional the whole team is! The main dentist reassured me and was there every step of the way, even when I got back to the UK. I highly recommend them to everyone!

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about Smile Makeover at MEDICUS.

How long does a smile makeover take to complete?

This depends entirely on which treatments are included. A whitening and veneers combination can be completed in 2–3 weeks. A full makeover involving implants, orthodontics, and veneers may take 6–12 months. For international patients, we offer condensed visit schedules.

How much does a smile makeover cost in Albania?

The cost varies based on the number and type of treatments involved. Treatment in Albania is typically 50–70% less expensive than equivalent work in Western Europe, with no reduction in materials or clinical standards. We provide a fully itemised quote after consultation — no surprises.

I do not know which treatments I need — is that okay?

Absolutely. You do not need to arrive with a plan. Our job is to assess your smile thoroughly, understand what you want to change, and design the most appropriate treatment plan. Many patients are surprised by what is achievable.

Will my smile makeover look natural?

Natural-looking results are our standard. We design everything in proportion to your facial features, skin tone, and lip profile. The goal is a smile that looks like the best version of your natural teeth — not obviously "done."

Can I plan a smile makeover as a dental tourist?

Yes — and many of our patients do exactly this. We offer full coordination for international patients, including a detailed digital treatment plan sent before your first visit so you can approve everything remotely. Contact us to start the process.
