01 / 12 · Alanya Dental Help
A Hollywood Smile is a comprehensive cosmetic smile makeover that improves the colour, shape, size and alignment of the visible teeth, usually by combining porcelain veneers, zirconium crowns and teeth whitening. At Alanya Dental Help, our dental clinic in Alanya, each Hollywood Smile is planned individually by Dt. Duygu Gürleyen and her team, so the result suits your face, lips and gum line rather than following a single template.
Many people picture a Hollywood Smile as very white, identical teeth, but a good result looks bright and healthy while still being believable. We start with a free initial consultation and a digital smile design, which lets you preview your new smile before any tooth is prepared. Together we decide on the shade, the number of teeth to treat and the materials that suit your bite and your oral health.
Who is a Hollywood Smile suitable for?
A Hollywood Smile can be a good option for adults who are unhappy with several aesthetic issues at once and who have healthy gums and a stable bite.
Gum disease, active decay or heavy teeth grinding need to be treated or managed first. During the examination we tell you honestly whether a full makeover is needed or whether a simpler approach would achieve your goals.
- Discoloured teeth that do not respond well to whitening
- Chipped, worn or uneven teeth
- Small gaps between the front teeth
- Old crowns or fillings that no longer match
- Mildly crooked teeth when orthodontics is not preferred
What a Hollywood Smile can include
There is no fixed package. Depending on the condition of each tooth, your plan may combine porcelain veneers for front teeth that are mostly healthy, zirconium crowns for teeth that are heavily filled or damaged, and professional whitening for teeth that will not be covered. Replacing old fillings or reshaping the gum line may also be part of the plan.
The number of teeth treated depends on how many are visible when you smile, which differs from person to person. We show you the options with their pros and cons so that you can choose with confidence.
Caring for your new smile
Veneers and crowns do not decay, but the natural tooth beneath them and the surrounding gums still can. Brush twice a day, clean between your teeth daily and keep up regular check-ups and professional cleaning. If you grind or clench your teeth, we may recommend a night guard to protect the porcelain, and it is best to avoid biting very hard objects such as ice, nut shells or bottle caps.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does a Hollywood Smile last?
With good oral hygiene and regular check-ups, porcelain veneers and zirconium crowns can last many years. Their lifespan depends on your habits, your bite and how well the gums and natural teeth are cared for. Restorations may eventually need repair or replacement.
Does getting a Hollywood Smile hurt?
Tooth preparation is done under local anaesthesia, so you should feel pressure rather than pain. Some sensitivity of the teeth or gums for a few days afterwards is common and usually settles on its own.
Will my teeth look fake?
Not if the smile is planned carefully. We choose the shade, shape and length together with you using digital smile design, aiming for a bright but natural result that suits your face.
How many teeth are treated?
It depends on how many teeth show when you smile and on their condition. Some patients need only the upper front teeth, others choose to treat both jaws. We recommend a number after examining you.
Can I have a Hollywood Smile during a holiday in Alanya?
Yes, many international patients plan their treatment as a dental holiday. Because laboratory work and a try-in are needed, we usually suggest staying around a week or a little longer. The exact schedule is confirmed after your examination.
