I love Meghan Markle’s smile. I think she is gorgeous and I love her smile. I want a top dentist who can give me a smile exactly like Meghan Markle’s. My teeth are in pretty bad shape and I’ve been dying for a smile makeover but I really wasn’t sure how I want my teeth to look. The more I see Meghan in celebrity news, the more I want her smile. I want my teeth the same shape, width, length and color as Meghan’s. What do I need to do to find a top dentist who can get my teeth just right? How will I know if what the dentist claims to be able to do will really happen? I wish I could find out who Meghan’s dentist is and then that would be a safe pick. Where do I start? - Alycia
Alycia - So you want a Meghan Markle smile. It’s popular for people to try to achieve a celebrity smile. Whether you want a smile makeover that makes you look like a celebrity, or just a gorgeous smile that fits you, a top dentist who is also a skilled cosmetic dentist can help. If the current condition of your teeth presents a lot of challenges, we recommend that you schedule a consultation with an accredited cosmetic dentist.
Do Your Homework First
- Find two or three accredited cosmetic dentists.
- Ask friends and family for recommendations, and check online patient reviews.
- Check each dentist’s website for his or her credentials.
- Look for a smile gallery on the website to see before-and-after pictures of smile makeovers on each dentist’s patients.
- Schedule a consultation with each top dentist.
How Will a Top Dentist Handle Your Request for a Smile Like Meghan Markle’s?
There aren’t many accredited cosmetic dentists in the country, but they are certainly top dentists and highly skilled artists. Your dentist will let you know what to expect when using cosmetic dentistry to imitate Meghan Markle’s teeth.
If an exact match is possible
A smile is a unique expression of a person. There are a lot of factors that will affect how the final results will look. A top dentist can give you a stunning smile, but whether or not it will look exactly like Meghan’s depends on a lot of things. Some of them include:
- Your jawbone structure
- Your face shape
- Your gumline
- The condition of your teeth
- Your lips
The appearance of a smile is much more than the shape and color of your teeth.
What it will take
You mentioned that your teeth are in bad shape, but you didn’t provide any specifics.
- Do you need orthodontic treatment?
- Do you have any missing teeth that need to be replaced?
- Are your teeth uneven?
- Do any of your teeth need to be restored with porcelain veneers or porcelain crowns?
Of course, professional teeth whitening will give any smile a brilliant lift. A top dentist will let you know what it will take to give you a smile that’s just as amazing as Meghan Markle’s. A combination of different cosmetic dental treatments might be needed to get the look you want.
How you will look
A top dentist who has experience in cosmetic dentistry will be able to tell you and show you how your smile will look when it’s complete. If you need porcelain veneers to achieve the smile makeover, you’ll be able to try on temporary veneers so you know exactly what to expect.
Based on your personality and facial features, your accredited cosmetic dentist will let you know if the smile makeover you’re requesting will enhance your appearance or detract from it.
Be Specific and Realistic
Write down, or record in your mobile device, exactly what it is about Meghan’s smile that you love. Let your dentist know what you want people to see when you smile.
A top cosmetic dentist can give you celebrity smile, but do you really want it to look exactly like Meghan Markle’s smile? Your answer might still be Yes!, but listen closely to your dentist to understand how closely your smile makeover can mimic Meghan’s smile, and how Meghan’s smile will look on you. Understand what the limitations are based on your facial features, your natural teeth, and the cosmetic treatment you select.
Your Celebrity Smile Might Look Better Than Meghan’s
Keep in mind that you can have a beautiful smile that is uniquely yours. Who knows, if you find the right cosmetic dentist, it might even look better than Meghan’s.
