Why Patients Choose Dr. Nabors for a Smile Makeover
A smile makeover is the most layered cosmetic decision a patient can make. The result depends on the dentist's aesthetic eye, the technical execution across multiple procedures, and how cleanly every piece of the plan integrates with every other. Three things put Dr. Thomas Nabors in a different category as Nashville's dentist for smile makeovers.
Real Patient Smile Designs
AACD Accreditation and Board of Directors
Dr. Nabors is one of fewer than 350 dentists in the world accredited by the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry, and the only AACD-accredited dentist in Nashville. He currently sits on the AACD Board of Directors. AACD accreditation is the highest credential a cosmetic dentist can earn, and the aesthetic skill that earning this title requires is exactly what a smile makeover demands.
One Provider for Every Phase of Treatment
A smile makeover can involve restorative work (crowns, periodontal therapy, etc.) before the cosmetic phase begins. At most practices, those procedures are referred out, splitting the plan across providers who are not in the same conversation. Our dentist in Nashville, TN, handles every phase in-house: restorative work, cosmetic finishing, and final adjustments all stay with one provider working toward one outcome.
Trains Other Dentists Through Smile Arte
Dentists travel nationally to learn Dr. Nabors's techniques through Smile Arte, the education brand he founded. The course catalog covers prepless veneers, smile design, and the practical mechanics of running a cosmetic practice at AACD-accredited standards. Dentists across the country pay to learn from Dr. Nabors. You can receive his techniques directly.
What a Smile Makeover Can Address
A smile makeover is a planned combination of cosmetic and (when needed) restorative procedures that resolves multiple concerns in one coordinated treatment plan. The most common concerns the makeover addresses include:
- Discoloration that whitening alone cannot reverse, often the result of internal staining or aging dental work.
- Chips, cracks, and worn edges from years of normal use, grinding, or accidental trauma.
- Misshapen, small, or rotated teeth that change the symmetry of the smile.
- Spacing between teeth.
- Old restorations that no longer match the surrounding teeth in color or shape.
- Gum tissue concerns that frame the teeth incorrectly, including a gummy smile or uneven gumline.
Dr. Nabors evaluates each concern in the context of the full smile and the rest of the face, then builds a plan that addresses each item with the right procedure.
The Smile Makeover Toolbox
Smile makeovers combine procedures into one streamlined plan. The right combination depends on the concerns we are addressing and the result you want.
For missing teeth, dental implants restore the full tooth from root to crown. Implant placement and restoration happen in our Nashville office, so the implant phase does not require a referral out.
When the only concern is discoloration on otherwise healthy teeth, whitening is the best option. Whitening is also often part of a larger makeover to elevate the entire result.
Composite resin can be shaped directly on the tooth to correct minor chips, spacing, and edge wear, often as a refinement after the larger cosmetic phase.
BOTOX® Cosmetic can soften dynamic lines around the eyes and forehead, lift the brow, and address a gummy smile. Used as part of a makeover, it adjusts the frame around the new smile.

Smile Makeover Cost and Financing
Smile makeover pricing depends on the procedures included and the number of teeth involved. A single-veneer-plus-whitening case looks different from a full upper-arch veneer set with crown work. Dr. Nabors will provide a custom quote during your consultation at our Nashville office.
Our Nashville practice offers in-house financing and accepts Cherry and CareCredit®. Insurance does not cover cosmetic procedures, but some makeover plans include restorative components where insurance contributes. As a non-restricted provider, we work with any insurance carrier and help you understand which benefits apply to your plan.
