Metal-Free Dental Restorations

When we repair one of your teeth, we won’t use unnatural metal that will stick out in your smile. Rather, your restoration will be made out of tooth-colored dental ceramic, one of the most advanced materials in all of dentistry. With dental ceramic, we can make your restored tooth look like nothing bad ever happened to it. It’s just as strong or stronger than natural enamel, and it can be shaped and shaded to perfectly match your other teeth.

Cosmetic Dental Bonding

Using composite resin, your dentist will apply it to your tooth and sculpt it to perfection. With it, we can effectively improve the shape, size, and color of any tooth. Even better, this treatment can usually be completed in about an hour, and the results can be expected to last for up to 10 years

Do your teeth appear short or uneven? Would you say that you have a “gummy” smile? If so, it doesn’t have to stay that way! With our soft tissue laser, we can quickly and painlessly remove excess gum tissue to reveal previously hidden dental structure. Your doctor can then sculpt your gum line along your teeth to give you that perfectly proportioned look in just one appointment.

What Cosmetic Dental Service is Right for Me?

In most cases, patients are trying to achieve a smile that is either whiter, straighter, or shaped differently. Here are some of the services we offer that can help:

  • Direct Bonding – Direct bonding is a minimally invasive procedure that can be completed in a single visit to the dental office. It’s one of the most affordable cosmetic options out there and can correct a variety of imperfections. However, this option will not last as long as other solutions – typically between 3 to 10 years.
  • Teeth Whitening – Professional teeth whitening is much more affordable than other cosmetic options, and it can lift stains much better than anything you can find in stores. Results last anywhere from a couple months to a few years depending on how well you care for them.
  • Veneers – This isn’t the cheapest option out there, but it is a comprehensive way to transform numerous aspects of your smile at the same time. This includes the shape, color, and minor alignment issues. The process can be completed in two appointments, and they last up to 15 years or longer!
  • Invisalign/SureSmile Clear Aligners – If you have misalignment issues, Invisalign and SureSmile are likely excellent solutions. The treatment usually costs several thousands of dollars, but it can leave you with beautiful results that will last with proper maintenance.
  • Gum Recontouring – Sometimes, smiles concerns don’t have to do with teeth. If your smile appears to be more gummy than most, gum recontouring can help to reveal healthy, beautiful tooth enamel.

Is Cosmetic Dentistry Expensive?

Many people associate cosmetic dentistry with expensive treatments, but this isn’t necessarily the case. Its pricy reputation likely stems from the fact that dental insurance rarely covers cosmetic treatments, so you typically need to pay out of pocket. While improving your smile may feel costly at first, you should consider the investment you’re making in your self-esteem, confidence, and quality of life!

Is Cosmetic Dentistry Safe?

As long as you’re under the care of a trained professional, most cosmetic dental treatments are perfectly safe for most patients. However, not every treatment is right for every patient. That’s why your dentist examines your mouth beforehand and give you an honest assessment of which procedures may or may not be right for you. Some cosmetic services may pose a risk if an underlying oral health issue isn’t treated first. For instance, placing a veneer over a decayed tooth may make the decay more difficult to treat later on. Any and all existing oral health issues need to be addressed ahead of time.

How Do I Know If I Need Cosmetic Dentistry?

If you aren’t completely confident when showing off your smile, you would likely benefit from cosmetic dentistry. Stained and discolored teeth can often be corrected with professional teeth whitening. Chipped and cracked teeth can be addressed with a direct bonding, dental crown, or veneer depending on severity. If you are hoping to appear more youthful, some cosmetic treats can take years off your smile! The only way to know for sure whether or not you could benefit from cosmetic dentistry is to attend a consultation. This way, your dentist can recommend specific treatments to meet your smile goals.

Does Cosmetic Dentistry Hurt?

Many patients worry that their treatment will hurt. The good news is that we do everything we can to make your treatment as comfortable as possible. Most cosmetic dental treatments are non-invasive, like teeth whitening and bonding. They don’t even require a local anesthetic in most cases. For treatments like veneers, the area will be numbed beforehand so that you don’t feel any discomfort. You may experience some residual soreness after cosmetic treatment, but this should be mild and temporary.
