A cosmetic smile makeover is a tailored treatment plan used to improve the appearance of your smile. Through the use of whitening, veneers, bonding, reshaping, or a combination of those procedures, your smile can be transformed into one that you are proud to show off.
Unlike generic cosmetic fixes, a cosmetic smile makeover is completely tailored to your wants, needs, dental health, and lifestyle. It goes beyond simply giving you a prettier smile; it’s about giving you a better one.
Our cosmetic smile makeover services in Howard Beach are perfect for:
If you’re ready for a smile that looks like you, but better, it starts here. Whether you’re looking to brighten, reshape, or reinvent your smile, our team is ready to make it happen under the guidance of Dr. Paul Ilan, a board-certified expert with more than 20 years of experience in restorative dentistry and the best smile makeover dentist in Howard Beach.
A cosmetic smile makeover does a lot more than just make your smile look better; it changes the way others see you and how you feel about yourself and can even improve the way your teeth work.
At DPI Dental, we provide consistent, reliable, and personalized care to achieve these results. We work hard to achieve the greatest benefit of them all: the moment when you look in the mirror and think, “Yes. That’s the smile I was meant to have.”
We’re known in Howard Beach for our ability to work with people who have had hard negative experiences at the dentist before, and if there’s something we’ve learned in all of our years working with the community, it’s that information matters.
You will meet with Dr. Ilan and the team to talk about your goals, the different procedures that might be right for you, and what is possible in your case.
We won’t rush you into making a choice; we’ll go over everything with you and answer all of your questions so you know exactly what you’re choosing.
We’ll make a plan just for you once we agree on the goals. We’ll take into account your mouth’s health, your schedule, and your lifestyle. We’ll let you know ahead of time if we can do this all at once or if you’ll need to come back several times.
The duration of this step depends entirely on your custom plan. If all you needed was some whitening, a single visit might do the trick. If you were looking for veneers, bonding, and maybe even some reshaping, your cosmetic smile makeover might take a handful of visits.
No matter how long it takes, we’ll be there for you every step of the way, keeping you up-to-date on your progress and giving you tips and advice on how to take care of your teeth while you wait for the next step of your makeover.
We go over care instructions, check how everything feels, and set up follow-up support once your new smile is in place. We’re here for you long after the makeover is done.

It depends on what you’re having done. Whitening? You might walk out the same day. Veneers or bonding? A few weeks, tops. Full smile makeover with multiple treatments? Could take a couple of months.
Looks are just the start. Many cosmetic smile makeover procedures actually improve how your teeth function by fixing small chips, strengthening worn enamel, and even improving bite balance.
We don’t do copy-paste smiles. Every plan is personalized, and every result looks like you—just refreshed. Add that to modern tools, a gentle approach, and a team that actually listens? That’s why we’re known for cosmetic smile makeover services in Howard Beach and beyond.
Not at all, but like anything, results need care. Whitening might need a touch-up over time. Veneers and crowns? Those can last 10–20 years with good habits. After your makeover, we’ll set you up with a maintenance plan to help your results last as long as your smile does.

We firmly believe that the internet should be available and accessible to anyone, and are committed to providing a website that is accessible to the widest possible audience, regardless of circumstance and ability.
To fulfill this, we aim to adhere as strictly as possible to the World Wide Web Consortium’s (W3C) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1 (WCAG 2.1) at the AA level. These guidelines explain how to make web content accessible to people with a wide array of disabilities. Complying with those guidelines helps us ensure that the website is accessible to all people: blind people, people with motor impairments, visual impairment, cognitive disabilities, and more.
This website utilizes various technologies that are meant to make it as accessible as possible at all times. We utilize an accessibility interface that allows persons with specific disabilities to adjust the website’s UI (user interface) and design it to their personal needs.
Additionally, the website utilizes an AI-based application that runs in the background and optimizes its accessibility level constantly. This application remediates the website’s HTML, adapts Its functionality and behavior for screen-readers used by the blind users, and for keyboard functions used by individuals with motor impairments.
If you’ve found a malfunction or have ideas for improvement, we’ll be happy to hear from you. You can reach out to the website’s operators by using the following email
Our website implements the ARIA attributes (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) technique, alongside various different behavioral changes, to ensure blind users visiting with screen-readers are able to read, comprehend, and enjoy the website’s functions. As soon as a user with a screen-reader enters your site, they immediately receive a prompt to enter the Screen-Reader Profile so they can browse and operate your site effectively. Here’s how our website covers some of the most important screen-reader requirements, alongside console screenshots of code examples:
Screen-reader optimization: we run a background process that learns the website’s components from top to bottom, to ensure ongoing compliance even when updating the website. In this process, we provide screen-readers with meaningful data using the ARIA set of attributes. For example, we provide accurate form labels; descriptions for actionable icons (social media icons, search icons, cart icons, etc.); validation guidance for form inputs; element roles such as buttons, menus, modal dialogues (popups), and others. Additionally, the background process scans all the website’s images and provides an accurate and meaningful image-object-recognition-based description as an ALT (alternate text) tag for images that are not described. It will also extract texts that are embedded within the image, using an OCR (optical character recognition) technology. To turn on screen-reader adjustments at any time, users need only to press the Alt+1 keyboard combination. Screen-reader users also get automatic announcements to turn the Screen-reader mode on as soon as they enter the website.
These adjustments are compatible with all popular screen readers, including JAWS and NVDA.
Keyboard navigation optimization: The background process also adjusts the website’s HTML, and adds various behaviors using JavaScript code to make the website operable by the keyboard. This includes the ability to navigate the website using the Tab and Shift+Tab keys, operate dropdowns with the arrow keys, close them with Esc, trigger buttons and links using the Enter key, navigate between radio and checkbox elements using the arrow keys, and fill them in with the Spacebar or Enter key.Additionally, keyboard users will find quick-navigation and content-skip menus, available at any time by clicking Alt+1, or as the first elements of the site while navigating with the keyboard. The background process also handles triggered popups by moving the keyboard focus towards them as soon as they appear, and not allow the focus drift outside it.
Users can also use shortcuts such as “M” (menus), “H” (headings), “F” (forms), “B” (buttons), and “G” (graphics) to jump to specific elements.
We aim to support the widest array of browsers and assistive technologies as possible, so our users can choose the best fitting tools for them, with as few limitations as possible. Therefore, we have worked very hard to be able to support all major systems that comprise over 95% of the user market share including Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, Opera and Microsoft Edge, JAWS and NVDA (screen readers).
Despite our very best efforts to allow anybody to adjust the website to their needs. There may still be pages or sections that are not fully accessible, are in the process of becoming accessible, or are lacking an adequate technological solution to make them accessible. Still, we are continually improving our accessibility, adding, updating and improving its options and features, and developing and adopting new technologies. All this is meant to reach the optimal level of accessibility, following technological advancements. For any assistance, please reach out to
