Smile Makeover in Malta, NY

A custom plan that starts with what you want your smile to look like, then maps the most conservative route to get you there.

Smile makeovers are personal. It’s not just about how your teeth look — it’s about how you feel when you walk into a room, laugh with friends, or see yourself in photos.


That’s why we take our time. We listen first. We ask questions. We figure out what’s been bothering you — and what you’d actually want to change if you could. A smile makeover isn’t one procedure; It’s a plan.


And that plan starts with a real conversation about what matters to you — including what feels realistic in terms of time, budget, and how much change you actually want.


From there, Dr. Cocozzo builds the most conservative path to the result you’re looking for.


Sometimes that means veneers on a few teeth. Other times it’s as simple as whitening first, then adjusting shape. It could also mean bringing in a trusted specialist for one part, while she handles the rest.


There’s no template for this — because no two people come in wanting the exact same thing.


Before anything is finalized, we’ll create a model so you can actually see where things are headed. If you want something adjusted — a softer shape, a different shade, a more natural look — we adjust it. Nothing is locked in until it feels – and looks – perfect.


What's included in a smile makeover?

A smile makeover is a personalized combination of treatments designed around what you want to change. It may include veneers, whitening, bonding, crowns, or minor adjustments — depending on your goals and what Dr. Cocozzo sees during your consultation.


How long does a smile makeover take?

There’s no single timeline — it depends entirely on which treatments are involved and how many appointments are needed. Some makeovers are completed in a few visits; others are spread across several months. You’ll leave your consultation with a clear, realistic timeline.


Does insurance cover smile makeover procedures?

Most cosmetic treatments aren’t covered by insurance. However, certain procedures — like crowns for structural needs — may qualify for partial coverage. We’ll handle submissions for you, and financing options are available through CareCredit and Cherry.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • I don’t know exactly what I want — is that okay?

    That’s actually where most people start. Just come in and share what’s been bothering you — we’ll help you understand what’s possible. No pressure, just a clear, honest conversation.
  • Do I have to do everything at once?

    Not at all. A lot of patients take it one step at a time — financially or just because they want to see how one treatment feels before moving forward. Dr. Cocozzo will help you prioritize so the first step makes the most sense.
  • Does Dr. Cocozzo do all of the work herself?

    For most cosmetic work, yes. If a specialist is needed, she’ll refer you to someone she knows and trusts — someone she would send her own family to. You’ll always feel taken care of.
