Smile Makeover with Dr. Vik
A smile makeover isn't one treatment — it's the right combination in the right order. Align, brighten, then finish cosmetically only where it's genuinely needed. That's how I get natural results conservatively.

— The principle behind every makeover I plan
The ABC Method
My most natural route to a transformed smile — each stage makes the next one lighter, more precise and more conservative.
Invisalign creates the foundation — better position, symmetry and spacing before anything restorative is even considered. Well-aligned teeth often need far less cosmetic work.
About my Invisalign →Whitening is the pivotal middle stage. Lifting the shade first changes how much finishing is needed later — and any new bonding or porcelain is matched to the brighter baseline.
About my whitening →Bonding or porcelain, used selectively, for the final details: edges, width, shape and smile-line finish. Sometimes it's a few grams of composite. Sometimes it's nothing at all.
About my bonding →What's In The Plan?
A makeover means solving several concerns at once — alignment, colour, wear, shape, spacing or missing teeth — as one designed outcome.
Chosen case by case, never by default:
Invisalign to create the right position and spacing
Professional whitening to lift the overall shade
Composite bonding or porcelain for shape and edge detail
Implants or replacement dentistry where teeth are missing
The difference between a good result and a great one:
A clear, complete plan before treatment starts
The right combination — not the biggest one
Natural tooth structure protected wherever possible
A finish that still looks believable and individual

Combined treatments, sequenced properly — this is what joined-up planning looks like on real patients of mine.
My Process
You'll know the full sequence — and the full costs — before we begin.
I work out whether your case is mainly about position, colour, shape, replacement — or a mix of all four.
Photos, iTero scans and digital smile planning build the sequence before treatment begins. You see where we're going before we start.
Alignment, whitening or replacement work comes first when it creates a better base — this is what keeps the finishing conservative.
Bonding or porcelain applied precisely, because the groundwork has already been done.
The result is reviewed, refined if needed, and protected with retention and the right maintenance plan.
“I've always been extremely anxious about the dentist, but Dr. Vik completely changed that for me. From the moment I sat down, I felt safe and reassured.”

No — and this is the biggest misconception I correct. Many of my makeovers are Invisalign, whitening and light bonding, with no porcelain at all.
Veneers join the plan when shape, proportion or colour changes are significant — but they're rarely the first step. Alignment and whitening often dramatically reduce how much restorative work is needed.
I design the sequence around what creates the best foundation: typically alignment before whitening, and whitening before bonding or porcelain. Each stage makes the next more predictable and more conservative.
I plan the full sequence at your consultation, so you can see exactly how each stage builds toward the final result.
Yes. If teeth are missing, implant planning is built into the wider sequence — position, timing and restoration all affect the aesthetic outcome.
Implants have the longest lead time, so I usually start them early while the other stages are planned around them.
A whitening-and-bonding plan might take a few weeks. A case involving alignment, whitening and porcelain could take 12 to 18 months. Cases with implants can take longer.
I'll give you a realistic timeline upfront. The goal is a result that lasts — which sometimes means taking the time to do it right rather than rushing an aesthetic shortcut.
Usually not. Most of my makeovers improve function as well as appearance — a better bite, replaced missing teeth, restored worn surfaces.
A well-planned makeover leaves you with teeth that look great and work properly for years to come.
