A Complete Smile Transformation Designed Around Your Face
A smile makeover is not a single procedure. It is a personalized treatment plan that combines the cosmetic dentistry and restorative dental services your smile needs into one cohesive design, built around your facial features, your goals, and how you want to look and feel for years to come.
At The Facial Aesthetic Designers in Rocky River, OH, Dr. John Heimke leads every smile makeover with a Personalized Smile Consultation, where he reviews your goals, presents a complete plan of treatment, and discusses fees before any work begins. You will always know what to expect and why each step is part of your plan.

Why Choose The Facial Aesthetic Designers for Your Smile Makeover
What sets Dr. Heimke apart is his Total Oral Design Integrated Team, a collaborative model that pairs his diagnostic and clinical expertise with two of the most respected master ceramists in the country: Peter Kouvaris of Oral Design Manhattan, NY, and Pinhas Adar of Oral Design Atlanta, GA.
Once you accept your treatment plan, Dr. Heimke completes your diagnostic records and finalizes your smile design. He then conducts a private, live video consultation with his ceramist partner to walk through your specific goals in detail, giving the laboratory a clear, personal understanding of the smile you want before any porcelain is ever shaped. Few practices offer this level of direct collaboration between dentist, patient, and laboratory artisan, and it is a defining part of the FAD experience.
How Digital Smile Design Shapes Your New Smile
Dr. Heimke uses Digital Smile Design (DSD) technology to show you how your new smile may look before treatment begins, functioning much like an architect’s blueprint that he shares directly with his Oral Design lab ceramists.
External Design Elements
Your smile design starts with the features that frame your teeth: face shape, face and lip dynamics, age, skin tone, and detailed photography and video. These external factors help determine tooth proportion, smile line, and the overall aesthetic balance of your new smile.
Internal Design Elements
From there, the design moves inward to gum characteristics, tooth size, tooth color, and how light interacts with the teeth themselves. This layered approach, from the outside in, is what allows a smile makeover to look natural rather than uniform or artificial, customized specifically to you.
Common Concerns a Smile Makeover Can Address
A smile makeover is often the right solution when more than one cosmetic or restorative issue needs attention at the same time. Dr. Heimke commonly designs smile makeover plans to address:
- Discoloration or staining that has not responded to teeth whitening alone
- Chipped, worn, or uneven teeth
- Gaps or spacing concerns between teeth
- Misshapen or disproportionate teeth relative to the face
- Missing teeth requiring dental implants, bridges, or cosmetic dentures
- A gummy smile or uneven gum line
- General wear from age, grinding, or previous dental work
Benefits of a Smile Makeover
A Cohesive, Natural Result: Every procedure in your plan is designed together, rather than treated as separate, disconnected fixes.- A Design Built Around Your Face: External features like face shape and lip dynamics inform your smile design from the very first consultation.
- Master Ceramist Craftsmanship: Direct collaboration with internationally recognized Oral Design laboratory technicians ensures exceptional detail and artistry.
- Full Transparency on Fees: You will review your complete treatment plan and costs before committing to any procedure.

A Cohesive, Natural Result:The Smile Makeover Process
Personalized Consultation and Treatment Planning
Your smile makeover begins with a comprehensive consultation where Dr. Heimke evaluates your oral health, listens to your goals, and presents a full plan of treatment along with associated fees. Nothing moves forward until you feel confident in the plan.
Diagnostic Records and Ceramist Collaboration
Once you accept treatment, Dr. Heimke finalizes your diagnostic records and smile design, then holds a live video consultation with his master ceramist partner, Peter Kouvaris or Pinhas Adar, to review your specific goals and finalize the laboratory plan.
Treatment and Final Delivery
With your design approved, treatment proceeds according to your customized plan, whether that involves porcelain veneers, dental bonding, teeth whitening, cosmetic dentures, or a combination of services. Each restoration is crafted to match the smile design developed during your consultation and reviewed for fit, comfort, and appearance before final delivery.

Investment in Your Smile Makeover
Because every smile makeover plan is built around your specific combination of procedures, the overall investment varies from patient to patient. During your Personalized Smile Consultation, Dr. Heimke will walk through your complete plan and associated fees so there are no surprises.
To help make treatment more accessible, we offer flexible dental financing options that allow you to spread the cost of your smile makeover over time.
Is a Smile Makeover Right for You?
Smile makeovers are ideal for people who want to address several smile concerns at once rather than pursuing individual treatments over time. During your consultation, Dr. Heimke will evaluate your oral health, discuss your aesthetic goals, and recommend the specific combination of cosmetic and restorative services that will achieve the result you are looking for.
If you are unsure whether a full smile makeover or a single treatment, such as porcelain veneers or teeth whitening, is the better fit, that is exactly what your consultation is for. Call (888) 255-3588 to schedule your visit in Rocky River or Sandusky.
Frequently Asked Questions
Timelines vary depending on which procedures are included in your plan. Some smile makeovers involving veneers or bonding can be completed in a few appointments, while plans that include implants or more extensive restorative work may take several months to allow for healing and laboratory fabrication. Dr. Heimke will outline your specific timeline during your consultation.
Dr. Heimke’s Digital Smile Design process is built specifically to avoid an artificial appearance. By designing from your facial features inward to gum characteristics and tooth color, the goal is always a result that complements your face rather than looking generic or uniform.
Dr. Heimke connects by video with his master ceramist partner, either Peter Kouvaris or Pinhas Adar, to walk through your specific smile goals and design details in real time. This ensures the laboratory technician crafting your restorations has a direct, personal understanding of what you want to achieve.
If you are dealing with more than one cosmetic concern, such as discoloration alongside chips or gaps, a smile makeover consultation gives Dr. Heimke the full picture needed to design a cohesive plan. You can always discuss single-procedure options during that same visit if a smaller treatment turns out to be a better fit.
