Veneers & Lumineers
Dental veneers are thin shells made of porcelain or composite resin that are bonded to the front of the teeth to improve their appearance. They can cover a variety of cosmetic dental issues, such as stained, misshapen, or chipped teeth. Veneers provide a natural-looking, long-lasting solution that requires minimal alteration to the existing enamel. On the other hand, Lumineers are even thinner and can be placed on the teeth as-is to provide a more conservative smile makeover in as little as two appointments.
Metal-Free Dental Restorations
Metal-free dental crowns and bridges provide a more natural-looking and aesthetic solution for damaged or missing teeth. They are made of materials such as porcelain or zirconia, which are strong, durable, and biocompatible with the human body. They also offer a hypoallergenic solution for those with metal allergies or sensitivities.
Invisalign Clear Aligners
If you have crooked teeth, you don’t have to necessarily spend years in metal braces. Invisalign uses a progressive series of clear plastic aligners custom-made for each patient to gently guide their teeth into their proper positions. They practically disappear when worn, and a patient can even remove the aligners whenever they want, meaning they can eat and clean their teeth like they always have.
Teeth Whitening
In-office professional teeth whitening is a fast and effective way to achieve a brighter smile. A dental professional applies a high concentration of bleaching agent to the teeth, which is activated with a special light. The procedure usually takes 1-2 hours, and results are visible immediately. Take-home professional teeth whitening involves custom-fitted trays filled with a lower concentration of bleaching agent that are worn for a specified amount of time each day for 1-2 weeks. Both options provide a safe and effective way to lighten teeth while delivering long-lasting results.

Smile Makeovers
A smile makeover is a comprehensive dental treatment plan that combines multiple cosmetic dentistry procedures to improve the appearance of the teeth and smile. It can address a multitude of dental issues at once, such as stained, misshapen, or missing teeth, and can include procedures such as teeth whitening, veneers, dental crowns, and orthodontics. The goal is to create a customized, natural-looking smile that enhances the patient's overall appearance and self-confidence using a single cohesive treatment plan.

Which Cosmetic Dental Service is Right for Me?
No two mouths or situations are identical. There can be multiple options to address your concerns. After examining your mouth and learning more about your goals, your cosmetic dentist will determine which procedures may be right for you, like:
- Veneers & Lumineers: Veneers and Lumineers are thin restorations that are bonded to the front sides of teeth to improve their color, size, and shape. This allows you to fix many imperfections quickly, like stains, chips, and gaps.
- Metal-Free Dental Restorations: All-ceramic materials can be used to create dental crowns and other restorations that look like real teeth. They are biocompatible and durable to provide a long-lasting solution that supports your overall wellness.
- Invisalign: Clear aligners provide an alternative to brackets and wires when fixing bite and alignment issues. The average treatment takes about 12 months.
- Teeth Whitening: Your smile can get up to 8 shades brighter with in-office teeth whitening. You'll enjoy results that can last for many months or years using a treatment that only takes 1 to 2 hours.

Is Cosmetic Dentistry Expensive?
Cosmetic dentistry is affordable for people from all walks of life. The diversity of treatment options provides solutions for all budgets. Your dentist will learn more about your situation to create a personalized treatment plan that won't cost you an arm or a leg. Our office also accepts various payment methods, like financing.

Does Cosmetic Dentistry Hurt?
Your comfort is always our priority. Based on your treatment plan and needs, a numbing medication can be used to block pain signals. You won't have any discomfort while in the dentist's chair. However, you might feel some unusual sensations or pressure. Some procedures may cause temporary discomfort after the effects of any numbing medications wear off. You can manage it with an OTC pain reliever and eating soft foods. Your cosmetic dentist will review any additional aftercare instructions.
How Long Does Cosmetic Dentistry Take?
Everyone's timeline differs. Besides your consultation, it's not uncommon to need a little prep work because your teeth and gums must be healthy before any elective service. The cosmetic procedures will also affect your timeline. Some procedures can be completed in one appointment, like dental bonding. Others can take multiple appointments, like veneers or clear aligners. Your dentist will explain how long you can expect it to take during your consultation.
How Long Does Cosmetic Dentistry Last?
Every procedure has a different life expectancy and many things will influence the duration of your results. You can get the most from your new smile with good oral hygiene. Besides brushing and flossing, visit your dentist every 6 months for a cleaning and checkup. Break any habits that can damage your teeth, like chewing on your fingernails.
Can I Use My Dental Insurance for Cosmetic Dentistry?
Dental insurance only covers medically necessary procedures. However, your benefits may pay some of the expenses for your consultation, diagnostic services, or preliminary procedures. Many cosmetic treatments also provide restorative benefits, which may be covered by your policy. We will work on your behalf with your dental insurance to maximize any applicable coverage.
