A smile makeover is a procedure that includes cosmetic and restorative treatments to address several flaws at once. Much like building a house, making over your smile requires careful planning. Because it involves changing several aspects of your smile with one treatment plan, it's important you have the help of a dedicated dentist. Dr. Kurziak will carefully outline your smile makeover in Waukegan, so you can:

Reveal an attractive smile to those around you
Get a boost in your self-esteem
Turn the clock back on years of neglect
Feel inspired to take better care of your oral health
Make better first impressions on others

Boost Your Smile With a Complete Makeover

When you visit us for a smile makeover procedure, it's essential you love the outcome. Smile design is the latest in dental innovation that allows you to "try on" a new smile before you begin treatments. In order to recommend services, we take the time to discuss what you'd like to change and examine your mouth for any potential oral health concerns. Often, making over your smile includes both restorative and cosmetic treatments.

Your treatments may include:

Teeth Whitening - You can remove lingering stains on your teeth with either at-home or in-office treatments.
Dental Veneers - These thin porcelain shells cover up imperfections and last for a decade or longer with proper care.
Tooth Bonding - Bonding also covers up dental flaws. It isn't as expensive as veneers, but the results don't last as long.
Dental Crowns - Our lifelike crowns can cover up damage to your teeth and blend in with your smile.
Tooth Fillings - Our tooth-colored fillings can address minor areas of damage.
Dental Implants - If you have missing teeth, we can pair your restorations with implants to improve your chewing strength and jawbone health.

Because we know some patients deal with dental anxiety, we've designed our office to put you at ease throughout your appointments. You'll find cozy massaging chairs, relaxing white noise or calming music, and warm blankets. Our sweet in-office comfort dog, April, can also make you feel right at home.

We look forward to meeting with you to discuss what's possible with your smile makeover in Waukegan.

I can’t say enough good things about Greenwood Dental Care! From the moment you walk in until the moment you leave, every member of the staff is incredibly kind, welcoming, and professional. I have a lot of dental anxiety, but they’ve made every visit as comfortable and stress-free as possible. The entire process has been painless, and I truly appreciate the care and compassion they show their patients. I highly recommend this office to anyone, especially if you’re nervous about going to the dentist!

I had a great experience! The staff was friendly and welcoming, and Dr. Kurziak was very gentle and caring. They made me feel comfortable throughout my visit. I highly recommend this office!

Amy Garza

What a wonderful experience and an amazingly clean and modern facility. I dread going to the dentist, but this was by far the best experience I’ve ever had. My husband and I recently moved to the area and we really lucked out by having found Greenwood Dental. Dr. Nikol was very thorough and detailed about the condition my teeth were in and what the game plan was moving forward. Happy to have found such a great dentist in the area!

I love seeing Dr. Nikol and friends! The office is warm, clean, and inviting. Dental work is quick and the staff does everything they can to manage any discomfort. April is the best dogtor around!

Sam Lindtner

Very nice office! It was easy to make an appointment. It was for my 7 year old grandaughter. We got there a bit early (by 15 min or so) and was taken in early! Very nice hydgienist took great care of my grandaughter. She made her feel super comfortable (the child is usually very squirmy) but she was perfectly still even for the x-rays! Dr. Kurkiak was also very nice and great with the little one! Quickly found common ground with 7 year old. Everything went smoothly!

Elaine Field

I haven’t been to the dentist in over 10 years. Due to the fear of pain, and my gagging reflex is horrible! I came here to see Dr.Nikol. She and her wonderful staff made me feel really comfortable! If I was having a problem they would step back and let me get my bearings back and my thoughts outta my head! And April the support pup will also help you relax. She does a great job! I’ll tell you what, I won’t be afraid to come back here in the future! Oh and my bad gagging didn’t happen! Woohoo! See you next time Greenwood Dental thank you for an amazing experience!!

We had such a wonderful experience at this dental office! From the very beginning, the scheduling process was easy, organized, and welcoming. The entire staff creates such a warm, family-friendly atmosphere that immediately made us feel comfortable. I especially appreciated how patient and kind they were with my kiddos during their cleanings. The team made sure they felt relaxed and comfortable the whole time, which means so much as a parent. My husband and I also had very thorough exams, and the dentist took the time to explain everything clearly and create a game plan for our next steps instead of making us feel rushed. You can truly tell they care about their patients and want the best for your family’s dental health. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a caring, professional, and trustworthy dental office!

Common Questions About Smile Makeovers

What is a smile makeover?

A smile makeover is a fully personalized treatment plan where we combine cosmetic and restorative services to improve the look and function of your smile. Our team evaluates your teeth, gums, and bite, then recommends options like whitening, veneers, bonding, crowns, or implants to help you feel confident again.

How do I know if I’m a good candidate for a smile makeover?

You may be a great candidate if you're unhappy with stains, chips, gaps, worn teeth, or missing teeth. During your consultation, your dentist will examine your mouth, review your goals, check your oral health, and help you decide which treatments will safely give you the results you want.

What treatments might be included in my smile makeover?

Your smile makeover may include teeth whitening, veneers, tooth bonding, dental crowns, tooth-colored fillings, or dental implants if you're missing teeth. We'll talk through what you'd like to change, evaluate your oral health, and design a custom combination of services to create a beautiful smile.

How long does a smile makeover take from start to finish?

Timing is different for everyone. After your exam and any necessary X-rays, we'll map out your treatment sequence. Some patients complete their makeover in just a few visits, while others need more time, especially if implants or extensive restorative care are involved. We'll give you a clear timeline upfront.

How much does a smile makeover cost?

The cost depends on which treatments you choose and how many teeth we're improving. After your dentist designs your plan, our team will review detailed fees, insurance benefits, and payment options. We also offer financing solutions so you can comfortably fit your new smile into your budget.

Will my smile makeover results look realistic?

Yes. Our goal is a smile that looks like a more confident, refreshed version of you. We carefully match shades, shapes, and proportions to your face and features. With smile design technology, we can even help you "try on" your new look so you feel excited and comfortable before treatment begins.

Does a smile makeover hurt?

We prioritize your comfort at every step. Your dentist uses gentle techniques and, when needed, local anesthetic and sedation to keep you relaxed. Our cozy massaging chairs, warm blankets, and therapy dog, April, help ease anxiety. Your visits feel as stress-free and comfortable as possible.

Will a smile makeover improve my oral health too?

Often, yes. While we focus on esthetics, we also address issues like decay, damage, gum disease, and missing teeth. Restorations such as crowns, fillings, and implants can strengthen your bite and support jawbone health. A new smile can also motivate you to maintain better daily oral hygiene.
