How long does a Hollywood smile take?

Most smile makeovers are completed in two visits across 5–7 days.

Will it look natural?

Yes. Shade, shape and translucency are designed to suit your face, so the result is bright but believable.

Treatment is carried out under local anaesthetic and most patients report only mild, short-lived sensitivity.

How long does it last?

With good care, high-quality veneers and crowns typically last 10–15 years or more.

Veneers or crowns — which will I need?

Your dentist recommends the most conservative option for each tooth; many smiles combine both.

Is the treatment painful?

It is carried out under local anaesthetic, so you feel pressure but little to no pain. Most patients report only mild, short-lived sensitivity afterwards.

How soon can I eat normally?

Stick to soft, lukewarm foods for the first 24 hours, then ease back into normal eating as any sensitivity settles — usually within a few days.

How long will the results last?

With good daily care and regular check-ups, high-quality results typically last many years; your dentist gives you a tailored estimate.

Is dental treatment in Turkey safe?

Yes — at an accredited clinic with named specialists, strict hygiene and quality materials, treatment is safe. We are TEMOS and ISO accredited and Ministry of Health approved.

Overview

A Hollywood smile is a full smile makeover that combines porcelain veneers or crowns, gum contouring and whitening to redesign the shape, colour and alignment of your visible teeth. Every case is planned digitally around your face for a result that looks bright but natural — never artificial.

Benefits

A fully personalised smile designed to your face shape and skin tone
Natural-looking, stain-resistant porcelain that mimics real enamel
Corrects colour, shape, gaps and minor alignment at once
Completed in a single 5–7 day trip
Backed by a 5-year guarantee and long-term aftercare

Suitability

Who is this treatment for?

Usually suitable

People who want the colour, shape and alignment of the whole visible smile changed together, not one tooth at a time
Healthy gums and enough sound tooth structure to carry 16–20 units
Patients who accept that porcelain needs lifelong maintenance and replacement after roughly 10–15 years

Needs assessment first

Anyone whose only complaint is colour, since whitening or composite bonding removes far less tooth and should be tried first
Untreated gum disease, decay or a failing root, all of which must be dealt with before any preparation
Heavy grinding or clenching, where the bite must be managed and a night guard worn or the porcelain will fracture

Final suitability is decided by your consultant after examination and imaging in Istanbul.

Risks and an honest expectation

Preparation is irreversible: enamel taken from 16–20 teeth cannot be put back and those teeth will always depend on a covering. Sensitivity in the first weeks is common, and in a small number of prepared teeth the nerve becomes inflamed and root canal treatment is needed later. Porcelain can chip or debond and receding gums can expose the margin; the digital design with a trial before any preparation, a night guard for grinders, and the 5-year guarantee with annual checks exist precisely to manage these.
