Smile Design and Makeover
Personalized plans for confident, natural smiles
Smile Makeover in Maspeth, Queens
Refined cosmetic dentistry designed to improve smile harmony, confidence, and natural-looking aesthetics.
A smile makeover is a personalized combination of cosmetic and restorative dental treatments designed to refine the overall look of your smile — the color, shape, length, symmetry, and proportion of your teeth, and the way they frame your face. At SOL Dental Arts in Maspeth, Queens, smile makeovers are planned and executed by Columbia University-trained dentists Dr. Arthur Volker, DDS and Dr. Aadel Soleymani, DDS, with an emphasis on results that look like the best version of you — never overdone, never generic.
What a Smile Makeover Includes
A smile makeover is not a single procedure — it’s a tailored treatment plan that combines whichever cosmetic and restorative treatments best fit your goals, bite, and natural anatomy. Depending on the case, it may include porcelain veneers, cosmetic composite bonding, professional teeth whitening, tooth-colored ceramic crowns, gum recontouring, dental implant restorations, and short-term orthodontics such as Invisalign or Six Month Smiles. Many makeovers also involve replacing failing older dentistry — discolored composites, mismatched crowns, worn edges — alongside cosmetic improvements.
Single-Visit vs Multi-Visit Smile Makeovers
Some makeovers can be completed in a single day with composite bonding, in-office whitening, and minor gum contouring. Others — especially those involving porcelain veneers, implant restorations, or orthodontic alignment first — unfold over several appointments across 2–8 weeks (or longer for cases that include orthodontics). At your consultation, we walk you through the realistic timeline for the exact combination of treatments your plan involves.
Planning Your Smile
Great cosmetic outcomes don’t happen by accident. Before any irreversible treatment, we photograph your smile from multiple angles, analyze your lip line and tooth proportions, study how your face moves when you talk and laugh, and design a target outcome you can review and refine. For many cases we use a digital smile simulation or sculpt a composite mock-up directly on your teeth so you can see and feel the projected result before we commit to a final plan.
The Patient Journey at SOL Dental Arts
1. Smile design consultation. Goals, photographs, bite evaluation, and a tailored treatment plan with transparent pricing.
2. Preview. Digital simulation or composite mock-up so you can see the projected outcome.
3. Preparatory treatment. Any whitening, orthodontics, gum contouring, or replacement of failing dentistry that needs to happen first.
4. Cosmetic phase. Veneers, bonding, crowns, or implant restorations are delivered.
5. Refinement and protection. Final adjustments, bite check, polish, and a custom night guard if grinding is a risk factor.
Aftercare and Longevity
Smile makeover results are designed to last — but they’re an investment that deserves protection. A custom-fit night guard is the single most important habit for anyone with bonded restorations or porcelain veneers. Routine cleanings every 4–6 months, daily brushing and flossing, and periodic polishing visits keep the case looking its best. With reasonable care, porcelain veneer cases commonly last 10–15+ years, and bonded restorations typically last 5–8 years before refresh or replacement.

Information on Cosmetic Services offered
What Cosmetic Dentistry Can Improve?
Cosmetic dentistry may be used to address a wide range of aesthetic concerns, including chipped teeth, worn edges, uneven tooth shape, discoloration, spacing, small lateral incisors, asymmetry, and smiles that no longer feel as polished or youthful as they once did. In many cases, improvement is achieved through conservative treatment planning that enhances the smile while respecting natural anatomy.
Our Approach to Smile Enhancement
At SOL Dental Arts, cosmetic treatment is planned with attention to proportion, translucency, contour, smile line, and facial harmony. We evaluate not only how the teeth look individually, but how they work together within the smile as a whole. This allows us to recommend treatment that feels elegant, refined, and appropriate for the individual patient rather than generic or overdone.
Treatment Options That May Be Included
Depending on the case, cosmetic dentistry may involve composite bonding, veneers, whitening, selective contouring, replacement of failing bonding, or a more comprehensive smile refinement plan. Some patients benefit from a small enhancement to one or two teeth, while others may be candidates for a broader treatment approach designed to improve the overall balance of the smile.
