What a smile makeover actually is

A smile makeover is not a single procedure. It is a customized treatment plan that combines two or more cosmetic dentistry services to address the full picture of what you want to improve. Some patients come in with one clear concern, a gap they have always wanted closed or staining that whitening alone has not resolved. Others want a more comprehensive transformation. In either case, the doctors at Rockefeller Dentistry build the plan around your specific concerns, your facial features, and what your teeth can realistically achieve.

The focus of a smile makeover is the appearance of your smile. That typically means one or more cosmetic procedures, though restorative work like crowns or bridges may be included when the health or structure of your teeth calls for it. Every plan is different because every smile is different.

Experience that makes the difference in Midtown Manhattan

The doctors at Rockefeller Dentistry bring credentials to cosmetic work that are rare in any dental practice. Dr. Gainor holds the Master of the Academy of General Dentistry designation, awarded to less than 2% of dentists nationwide, and has accumulated over 2400 hours of continuing education. He has completed the Pankey Institute restorative continuum, the Spear Institute mastery program, and advanced coursework at the Dawson Academy. Dr. Rausch is a Fellow of the Academy of General Dentistry, the American College of Dentistry, the International College of Dentistry, and the Pierre Fauchard Academy, and previously served as General Chairman of the Greater New York Dental Meeting. Dr. Chason is a member of the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry and has dedicated a significant part of his career to cosmetic dentistry and smile makeover procedures specifically.

For veneer cases within a smile makeover, Dr. Chason works with Peter Kouvaris, a master ceramist who has spent over 35 years refining his craft and currently lectures at NYU College of Dentistry on full mouth reconstruction and aesthetics. His direct involvement in veneer cases at Rockefeller Dentistry is what separates the ceramic results here from what comes out of a standard lab arrangement.

That level of training matters in cosmetic work because a beautiful smile has to function correctly. Veneers that do not account for how a patient bites will not last. Crowns that do not fit the surrounding bite will create problems over time. The doctors approach every smile makeover with that understanding built in from the start.

Smile makeover treatments available at Rockefeller Dentistry

Porcelain veneers are thin, custom-made shells bonded to the front surface of your teeth. They are one of the most transformative cosmetic treatments available, correcting discoloration, chips, gaps, worn-down teeth, and uneven or misshapen teeth in a matter of visits. For patients with multiple cosmetic concerns, veneers are often the centerpiece of the makeover plan.

Zoom teeth whitening lifts deep stains and brightens your smile several shades in a single in-office appointment. For patients whose primary concern is color rather than shape or alignment, whitening alone can produce a dramatic improvement. Take-home trays are also available to maintain results over time.

Invisalign uses a series of clear, removable aligners to straighten crooked or gapped teeth without metal brackets or wires. For patients whose makeover includes alignment, Invisalign delivers results comfortably and discreetly, without disrupting daily life during treatment.

Crowns and bridges restore teeth that are too damaged or decayed for veneers alone, while also filling gaps left by missing teeth. Custom-made to match the look of your natural teeth, they are incorporated into a smile makeover when both cosmetic improvement and structural restoration are needed.

What to expect at your consultation

Your smile makeover consultation at Rockefeller Dentistry begins with the doctors listening. You will describe what bothers you about your current smile and what you hope to achieve. The doctors will examine your teeth and gums, review your oral health, and discuss which combination of treatments can deliver the results you are looking for within a realistic timeline.

You will leave the consultation with a clear treatment plan and a full understanding of what each step involves before you commit to anything. Depending on the number of procedures involved, the doctors will also outline a realistic timeline so you know what to expect at each stage before committing to the full plan.

Financing options

Smile makeovers at Rockefeller Dentistry can be financed through CareCredit, LendingClub, and Cherry, all of which offer no-interest options for patients who qualify.
