Dr. Sieman, his staff, and every single person I’ve come in and dealt with at Paxton Dental Care, has been phenomenal. They are caring and patient and excellent at what they do. Especially for someone like me, who is nervous at the dentist! I highly recommend them.
The complete smile makeover process
Drs. Fadi Farah and Scott Siemen, dentists in Paxton, MA, are highly skilled and experienced in helping patients in the Paxton and Worcester, MA, area achieve dazzling smiles with personalized teeth makeovers. The perfect smile makeover plan for one patient is not what is best for another, and getting an in-depth understanding of what you like and what you want to change about your smile is an important first step in planning out your treatment. For example, we may ask you which celebrity smiles you love, your budget and treatment preferences, and your overall vision for your future smile.
Then, using a blend of artistry, precision, and intuition about what looks natural and aesthetically pleasing, we work with each patient individually to determine the best approach for transforming their smile. This may include one or more of the following procedures:
- Dental implants to replace missing teeth
- Tooth-colored porcelain fillings or crowns to repair damaged teeth and restore their natural appearance
- Cosmetic bonding with composite resin to repair small cracks or chips
- Treatments for gum disease or gum recession so you have healthy, pink gums
- Teeth whitening for a bright, white smile
- Porcelain veneers or Lumineers to hide imperfections such as gaps, misshapen teeth, or even minor misalignment
While many patients think of smile makeovers as purely cosmetic, many also gain health benefits from the process. Healthy and beautiful smiles go together! By halting decay processes, restoring teeth with crowns and fillings, or replacing missing teeth with implants, we can help lay the foundation for a terrific-looking smile and a healthy one.

Smile Makeover FAQs
I’ve never heard about smile makeovers – what are they?
Smile makeovers involve a combination of cosmetic and restorative dental treatments designed to transform your smile. At Paxton Dental Care in Paxton, Massachusetts, your dentist will assess your oral health, discuss your goals, and create a plan that may include teeth whitening, veneers, crowns, Invisalign®, and more. This comprehensive approach not only enhances the aesthetics of your smile but can also improve functionality, bite alignment, and confidence.
How long should I expect my smile makeover to take?
How long it takes to complete your smile makeover depends on what procedures are included in your personal treatment plan. Some patients see results in just a few visits, while others may require several months for optimal results. Treatments like teeth whitening or bonding can be completed quickly, whereas orthodontic treatments or dental implants require more time. When you visit for your consultation at Paxton Dental Care, we’ll provide a realistic timeline tailored to your specific needs and smile goals.
Is a smile makeover permanent?
Results from a smile makeover can be long-lasting but not necessarily permanent. The longevity of your new smile will vary based on the types of treatments included in your makeover and your oral hygiene habits. Treatments like dental crowns, implants, and veneers can last ten to fifteen years or more with proper maintenance. Good oral hygiene, regular dental checkups, and avoiding habits like teeth grinding or smoking can help extend the life of your smile makeover.
What dental issues can a smile makeover fix?
A complete smile makeover addresses various cosmetic and functional dental concerns, including chipped or broken teeth, discoloration, gaps, misalignment, missing teeth, and uneven gum lines. At Paxton Dental Care, we customize each makeover to correct your unique concerns, whether you want a subtle enhancement or a dramatic transformation. The goal is to achieve a great smile and function optimally for long-term oral health.
Who is a good candidate for a smile makeover?
Most people who are unhappy with the appearance or function of their teeth are candidates for a smile makeover. Ideal patients should have good oral health, including healthy gums and sufficient tooth structure. If underlying issues like gum disease or decay are present, they must be addressed first. Our team will evaluate your dental health and aesthetic goals at your consultation to determine the best plan for your smile transformation.
What will a smile makeover cost?
The cost of a smile makeover will vary from patient to patient. The number of treatments required and the complexity of the issues worked on will all play into the overall cost, which can range from a few hundred to several thousand dollars. At Paxton Dental Care, we offer personalized treatment plans and discuss all fees upfront. Flexible financing options may help you achieve the smile you’ve always wanted without financial stress.
Does dental insurance cover smile makeovers?
Dental insurance usually does not cover cosmetic procedures like veneers or whitening. However, some restorative aspects that can be included in a smile makeover, such as crowns or dental implants, may be partially covered if deemed medically necessary. At Paxton Dental Care, our team will review your benefits and help you navigate your insurance coverage so you know what to expect financially before treatment begins.
