Full Smile Makeovers
Multiple treatments combined into one cohesive plan. Veneers, bonding, whitening, and alignment sequenced together so every piece works as a system.
AACD Accredited · Financial District
Porcelain veneers designed digitally before a single tooth is touched.
Dr. Elena Cross plans every smile in 3D, shows you the result on screen, then builds it by hand. No guessing. No surprises. Just veneers, Invisalign, and full smile makeovers done with precision in San Francisco's Financial District.
What We Do
Three things, done exceptionally well.
No menu of thirty procedures. We focus on veneers, clear aligners, and full smile design because that's where the artistry matters most.
Core Specialty
Porcelain Veneers
Custom-milled, ultra-thin shells bonded to your teeth for a natural, luminous finish. Every set is designed in 3D to match your facial structure, gum line, and desired shade. We use lithium disilicate for strength and translucency that mimics real enamel.
Clear Alignment
Invisalign Clear Aligners
Straighter teeth without brackets or wires. We use iTero scanning for precise digital impressions and ClinCheck software to map every stage of movement before you begin. Most cases complete in 6 to 14 months.
Professional Whitening
Clinical-grade gel in custom-fitted trays. Lifts deep staining from coffee, wine, and age in a single session. Results last 12 to 18 months with proper care.
Digital Smile Design
See your new smile on screen before committing. We photograph your face, overlay proposed changes, and let you approve the look before any treatment begins.
Flexible financing available. Veneer treatments start at $1,200 per tooth. We partner with CareCredit and Lending Club for 0% interest plans up to 24 months. Full smile makeovers are custom-quoted after your digital preview consultation.

The Dentist
Dr. Elena Cross
Dr. Cross opened Meridian Smile Studio in 2009 after completing her DDS at the University of the Pacific Arthur A. Dugoni School of Dentistry. She pursued advanced training in aesthetic reconstruction at the Kois Center in Seattle and earned accredited membership in the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry, a distinction held by fewer than 5% of cosmetic dentists nationwide.
Her approach combines digital treatment planning with hands-on craftsmanship. Every veneer case begins with a digital smile design, a physical wax-up, and a trial smile you can wear for a week before committing. She's placed over 4,000 veneers in her career and maintains a 97% patient retention rate.

Real people, real changes.
"I spent two years looking at veneer before-and-afters online before I booked. The trial smile is what sold me. I wore it for a week, made one small tweak to the length, and the final result was exactly what I saw on screen. My dentist back home in Portland said they're the best veneers he's ever seen."
"I was nervous about Invisalign at 42. Dr. Cross showed me a simulation of how my teeth would move at every stage. Eight months later, they're straight. No one at work noticed until I pointed it out."
"The financing made it doable. I put half down and paid the rest over 18 months with CareCredit. Worth every penny. I actually look forward to photos now."
