Smile Makeovers in Midtown Manhattan

Smile makeovers in Midtown Manhattan, designed and executed by Dr. Adam Koppelman, DMD. A small cosmetic practice three blocks from Bryant Park, where the whole smile is treated as a single design problem and previewed before any tooth is touched.

A smile makeover is what you call it when more than one tool is doing the work. Veneers, alignment, whitening, sometimes implants and the prosthetics that ride on them — planned together, sequenced so each step makes the next one possible.

The work happens twice. Once in the design — on photographs, on molds, on screen — where the shape, shade, and proportion are decided before anything is permanent. Then in the mouth, executing what we already agreed on.

How it goes

Capture

Editorial photography in the office. Short video, so I can see how the smile reads while you’re talking, not just posing. Molds mounted to study the bite. The photography is mine.

Design

A mock-up of the proposed smile — shape, shade, proportion, how it sits in your face. You see it from the angles people actually see you from, before anything is touched.

Execute

Once the design is agreed, the treatment runs to it. Alignment first when that’s the sequence. Implants and prosthetics where they fit. Porcelain last. The result matches what you approved.

Common questions

What is a smile makeover?

A plan that addresses more than one thing at once — alignment, shade, shape, missing structure — to give the face back the smile it’s supposed to have.

How much does it cost?

Every case is different. There’s no honest range without a consultation and a look.

Makeover or full-mouth reconstruction?

Reconstruction is structural: function, hygiene, longevity. A makeover is primarily aesthetic, though restorative work often supports it. The diagnosis decides which one this is.

Often paired with

Smile makeovers are the case where everything pairs. Veneers for shape and shade. Invisalign for position. Whitening for the foundation shade. Dental implants when teeth are missing. Same-day porcelain for the single-tooth refinements that finish a case. General dentistry underneath, so the foundation can carry the aesthetic.
