What does smile enhancement in Marlboro, NJ include?

Orthodontics puts teeth in the right place. Enhancement refines how that smile looks within your whole face. Smile enhancement in Marlboro, NJ at our office centers on four services, each with its own detailed page.

  • Whitening: a noticeably brighter shade in a single Zoom visit.
  • Botox: relaxed expression lines and, for some patients, relief from clenching.
  • Fillers: restored volume in lips, cheeks, the jawline, and smile lines.
  • Gummy smiles: less gum on display when you laugh.

Zoom teeth whitening in Marlboro, NJ

Zoom whitening takes about 45 to 60 minutes and lifts the stains left by coffee, tea, and everyday life. Results commonly last from 6 months to 2 years, depending on your habits.

We check that teeth and gums are healthy first, and we wait until brackets or attachments are off so color comes out even. Our whitening page covers the full visit, and the ADA’s MouthHealthy guide explains how bleaching works.

Botox in Marlboro, NJ for lines and jaw tension

Botox relaxes the specific muscles that crease skin or overwork the jaw. It’s $13 per unit, Xeomin is $11 per unit, and monthly memberships make upkeep predictable.

Relief is part of the appeal, too. For clenching, grinding, and TMJ tension, relaxing the masseter can ease discomfort. Read more on our Botox page.

Dermal fillers in Marlboro, NJ for natural volume

Hyaluronic acid filler replaces volume that fades with age. Lip results typically last 6 to 12 months, cheeks and jaw 12 to 18, and because the gel can be dissolved, treatment is reversible.

Fillers are often the last step of smile enhancement in Marlboro, NJ, adding lip shape and support once teeth are aligned and bright.

See areas and timelines on our fillers page, or learn how the two injectables work together in our Botox and filler overview.

Is gummy smile treatment right for you?

When the upper lip lifts high, more gum shows than you may like. A gummy smile treatment with a small, precise Botox dose can relax that lip muscle so your teeth take center stage.

Because we also evaluate tooth position and jaw growth, we can tell whether gum display comes from the lip, the teeth, or the bite. That way, gummy smile treatment is matched to the real cause.

Why choose smile enhancement in Marlboro, NJ from an orthodontist?

More moms now book cosmetic treatments in orthodontist offices, and the reason is anatomy. Dr. Tara Gostovich, ABO board-certified and recognized by Top Dentists NJ, studies how teeth, lips, and jaws fit together every day.

For cosmetic treatments, orthodontist training means conservative amounts and results planned around your smile line, so smile enhancement in Marlboro, NJ looks like you on a great day.

When should you schedule smile enhancement in Marlboro, NJ?

Timing depends on the service and the occasion. Botox starts working in 3 to 5 days and reaches its full effect at 7 to 14, so plan it about two weeks before photos or a celebration.

Filler can cause mild swelling for 24 to 48 hours, and whitening is best saved until orthodontic treatment wraps up. If you’re finishing braces or aligners, smile enhancement in Marlboro, NJ makes a fitting way to mark the milestone.

Surgical orthodontics

For adults 18 and older with a severe overbite, underbite, crossbite, open bite, or facial asymmetry, tooth movement alone may not be enough. Surgical orthodontics pairs it with corrective jaw surgery.

  1. Preparation: braces or aligners align the teeth, usually over 12 to 18 months.
  2. Surgery: an oral and maxillofacial surgeon repositions the jaw.
  3. Finishing: a final phase of orthodontics fine-tunes the bite.

Growth-modifying appliances

While children are still growing, the right appliance can guide how the jaws develop. Options we use include:

  • Palatal expanders, including the removable Invisalign Palatal Expander, to widen a narrow upper jaw
  • Face mask, typically for ages 7 to 10, to address an underbite
  • MARA, typically for ages 11 to 15, to help correct an overbite
  • Invisalign mandibular advancement for teens who need the lower jaw brought forward

Our early treatment page explains why timing matters.

Smile Enhancement FAQs

Why does an orthodontic office offer whitening, Botox, and fillers?

Because these treatments rely on the same anatomy orthodontists study every day: how teeth, lips, jaws, and facial muscles work together. Dr. Gostovich uses that perspective to keep results conservative and balanced with your smile. It’s also convenient, since many parents can book their own visit around a child’s orthodontic appointment.

Can I whiten my teeth while wearing braces or aligners?

We recommend waiting. Brackets and aligner attachments cover small parts of each tooth, so whitening during treatment can leave uneven patches once they come off. Most patients schedule Zoom whitening shortly after treatment ends, when the full tooth surface is exposed and the color comes out uniform.

How much do Botox and fillers cost?

Botox is $13 per unit and Xeomin is $11 per unit, with monthly memberships starting at 20 units for $220. Filler pricing depends on the areas treated and how much product you need, so we quote it at your complimentary consultation. Flexible payment options are available.

What can be done about a gummy smile?

It depends on the cause. When an overactive upper lip muscle is lifting too high, a small dose of Botox can relax it so less gum shows. If tooth position or jaw growth is involved, orthodontic treatment may be the better answer. Dr. Gostovich will identify the cause before recommending anything.

Who needs surgical orthodontics?

Surgical orthodontics is for adults 18 and older whose jaws are significantly mismatched, such as a severe underbite, overbite, crossbite, open bite, or facial asymmetry. Treatment usually starts with 12 to 18 months of braces or aligners, followed by surgery with an oral and maxillofacial surgeon, then a finishing phase.

What age are growth-modifying appliances used?

They work best while a child is still growing. A face mask is typically used around ages 7 to 10 for underbites, and a MARA around ages 11 to 15 for overbites. Palatal expanders, including the removable Invisalign Palatal Expander, can widen a narrow upper jaw at several stages of growth.
