The timeline depends entirely on the mix of treatments you need and how quickly your mouth heals between stages. At Tatura Dental Care, we break every makeover into three phases so you know exactly what to expect from Day One.
1. Consultation & Digital Design (1–2 weeks)
Your journey starts with 3-D scans, photos and a bite analysis. Using smile-design software, we preview tooth length, colour and symmetry, then discuss goals, costs and sequencing. You’ll leave this visit with a printed or emailed timeline customised to you.
2. Rapid Refinements (2–6 weeks)
If you only need whitening, minor bonding or a single crown, we can unveil your new smile in as little as two appointments. Custom trays for take-home whitening arrive within a week; resin bonding or no-prep veneers often follow in the next.
3. Comprehensive Corrections (3–9 months)
More involved cases—crowding, missing teeth, worn enamel—require extra time:
- Clear aligners or braces: 3–6 months for mild alignment, 9–12 months for complex movement.
- Dental implants: 4–6 months to allow bone integration before the final crown.
- Multiple porcelain veneers or crowns: 3–4 visits spaced over 4–8 weeks for lab fabrication and try-ins.
Throughout, you’ll visit us for check-ups roughly every four weeks so we can track healing, adjust appliances and keep everything on schedule.
Final Reveal and Maintenance
Once treatment wraps, we polish, photograph and provide retainers or night guards to protect your investment. With responsible home care and our six-monthly reviews, your new smile will stay camera-ready for years to come.
