Smile Design: A Smile That Fits You

Custom Plans, Real Results

Smile Design is a special way of planning and creating the smile you want. It’s not just about fixing one tooth—it’s about making your whole smile look better and feel more natural. At River Bluff Dental, we look at things like your face shape, tooth color, and bite to make sure everything works together perfectly.

We create custom plans that fit your face, your style, and your goals—because no two smiles are the same. We consider:

  • Tooth shape: We match teeth to your face and personality.

  • Tooth color: We help you pick a shade that looks natural.

  • Smile line: We look at how your teeth line up with your lips.

  • Facial harmony: Your smile should match the rest of your features.

Who Can Benefit from Smile Design?

Feel Unsure About Your Smile? Start Here

Not everyone is born with a smile they love—and that’s okay. Many people feel self-conscious about the way their teeth look. Some avoid smiling in pictures. Others cover their mouth when they laugh. Some even stop themselves from speaking up because they’re afraid someone might notice their teeth.

If any of that sounds familiar, Smile Design might be exactly what you’ve been looking for.

Smile Design can help if you have:

  • Chipped or worn-down teeth

  • Stained or discolored teeth

  • Crooked or uneven teeth

  • Gaps between teeth

  • A gummy or uneven smile

  • Missing teeth or old dental work

FAQs about Smile Makeover/Smile Design
  • How much does it cost to fix your smile?

    The cost of fixing your smile depends on your goals and the procedure. Each case is unique.

    Please contact River Bluff Dental in Bloomington, MN for a smile design consultation.

  • What is a smile makeover/smile design?

    A smile makeover/smile design is a custom plan to bring you the smile of your dreams. It’s typically a combination of treatments involving restorative dentistry, cosmetic dentistry, or both.

    Options include orthodontics (metal braces or clear aligners), whitening, fillings, bonding, veneers, dental implants, and crowns.

    A smile makeover/smile design enhances your appearance while maintaining a natural look for teeth. It has the power to alter the alignment and spacing of teeth, their size, shape, and color. The result is a natural-looking, beautiful smile that suits your face.

    We’ll define your goals – are you looking to brighten your smile, straighten your teeth, restore missing teeth, or completely reinvent yourself? Then we’ll create and execute the plan.

  • How is smile correction done?

    Smile correction is done using a specific treatment or several treatments to fix and create your perfect smile. This can involve a mix of restorative or cosmetic dentistry options.

  • How do celebrities get perfect teeth?

    Many celebrities get perfect teeth with a smile design/smile makeover. While there are many celebrities with natural teeth who only need whitening, others have porcelain veneers, which are custom-made porcelain shells adhered to teeth for a flawless appearance. Veneers can completely change the look of a person’s teeth.

    The best part about a celebrity smile is that it looks natural, and with our custom smile makeover/smile design, we can do the same for you. Contact us for your smile design consultation today.

  • Are veneers safe?

    Yes, veneers are safe. They’ve been used for years, and we’re experienced in creating perfect smiles with the application of custom-made veneers.

  • Can I see what my smile will look like ahead of time?

    Yes! We use digital tools to show you a preview of your future smile. You’ll be part of the planning every step of the way, so you feel excited—not nervous—about what’s to come.

  • Does it hurt?

    Most people say it’s easier than they expected. Some treatments are completely pain-free, and others might involve mild discomfort. If anything needs numbing, we’ll take care of that too.

  • Will my smile look natural?

    Yes. That’s the goal. We design smiles that match your face, skin tone, and personality. We’re not trying to give you someone else’s smile—we’re helping reveal your best one.

  • What if I’m not ready yet?

    That’s okay! There’s no pressure. We’re happy to meet, answer your questions, and help you explore your options—even if you’re not ready to begin right away.
