Smile Makeover in NYC
A smile makeover isn’t a single procedure—it’s a coordinated plan that brings together the right combination of treatments to address everything you’d like to change about your smile. Dr. Alex Gause designs these plans individually, drawing from the practice’s full range of cosmetic, restorative, and digital capabilities.

What Is a Smile Makeover?
A smile makeover is a customized treatment plan that combines two or more cosmetic and restorative procedures to improve the overall appearance and function of your smile. Rather than treating each concern in isolation, a smile makeover looks at your teeth, gums, bite, and facial proportions as a whole, and designs a plan where every component works together toward one cohesive result.
Depending on your goals and clinical needs, a smile makeover at Gause Dentistry might combine:
Every smile makeover begins with comprehensive digital planning. CBCT imaging, intraoral scanning, and digital photography allow Dr. Gause to map out your case in detail and often preview the intended result before treatment begins, so you know what to expect at each stage.
Benefits of a Smile Makeover
A plan built around you
Because no two smiles need exactly the same combination of treatments, a smile makeover is designed from scratch around your specific teeth, bite, and aesthetic goals, with custom cosmetic solutions from each step.
Treatments that work together, not against each other
When whitening, veneers, alignment, and restorative work are planned as a single coordinated case, the shade, shape, and proportion of every tooth are considered in relation to the others. This avoids the mismatched look that can happen when treatments are done piecemeal, at different times, by different providers.
Function and appearance addressed together
A smile makeover isn’t purely cosmetic. Because Dr. Gause is a Kois Center graduate with a strong restorative and functional foundation, makeovers are designed with your bite in mind—correcting how your teeth meet, not just how they look, which helps protect the longevity of the result.
Efficient, coordinated treatment
Rather than scheduling and re-planning each procedure independently, a smile makeover consolidates your care into an organized sequence, minimizing redundant visits and keeping the entire process moving toward a single outcome.
Confidence that extends beyond your smile
For many adult patients, a smile makeover is about more than aesthetics—it’s tied to confidence in professional and social settings. A natural, well-proportioned result designed specifically for your face can help you feel confident wherever you are.
Expertise across every component
Because Dr. Gause holds recognized expertise across implants, SureSmile, and general cosmetic and restorative dentistry, a multi-part smile makeover doesn’t require referring you out to separate specialists for each piece—one doctor manages the entire plan from consultation to completion.
How It Starts
Every smile makeover begins with a thorough consultation:
- A review of your goals
- A clinical exam
- Digital imaging
These will help our team understand exactly what your teeth, gums, and bite need. From there, Dr. Gause will present a specific plan—including sequencing, materials, and expected outcomes—before any treatment begins.
