Veneers
Veneers allow us to conceal any number of cosmetic flaws, including uneven spaces between teeth, crooked and malformed teeth, deeply set stains, and more. The process is simple: over the course of two visits, we’ll prepare the teeth by removing a small amount of enamel. This will allow the veneers to lay flush with your surrounding teeth when they’re attached. We’ll capture impressions to send off to our dental lab to create your custom veneers. Finally, once they arrive, we’ll remove the temporary veneers and adhere your permanent ones onto the surface of your teeth.
Metal-Free Restorations
All-ceramic restorations offer equally restorative and cosmetic improvements for patients, and unlike other restorative materials, these metal-free solutions are safe and effective for those patients who experience allergies and sensitivities to metal. We can use all ceramic restorations to repair severely damaged or decayed teeth, conceal cosmetic flaws, and replace missing teeth.
Direct Bonding
In some cases, we’re able to provide a same-day, low-prep alternative to veneers by concealing cosmetic flaws with composite resin. This material is commonly used in fillings to repair damaged or decayed teeth, but we can also utilize composite resin to correct gaps, stains, and other cosmetic irregularities. We simply apply a layer of composite, shape it in place, and use a curing light to harden the material. For patients with minor cosmetic flaws, direct bonding may be a faster and more affordable alternative to veneers.
In-Practice Teeth Whitening
For patients interested in brightening their smiles in about an hour, we offer fast and effective Venus in-office whitening treatments. Many patients who visit our office have tried ineffective over the counter whitening kits, and they think whitening doesn’t work. However, our in-office treatments counteract the failings of these store-bought products by offering personalized doses of professional levels of whitening agent. Additionally, we apply these products in a safer and more effective manner.

At-Home Teeth Whitening
For patients interested in achieving a whiter smile more gradually and those who have sensitive teeth, at-home whitening kits from our team may deliver the desired results. Using professional grade whitening gel and customized application trays, our take-home Venus whitening kits are able to remain active on teeth to remove stains for significantly longer periods of time than over the counter products. That means within two weeks of daily application, most patients see dramatically brighter smiles.

Understanding the Cost of Cosmetic Dentistry
How much will it cost to have cosmetic dentistry performed? This is a question that tends to worry many patients, especially since most dental insurance plans will not help pay for procedures that are solely meant to improve the appearance of the teeth. Fortunately, you can count on our friendly, trustworthy dental team to provide you with a reliable estimate of the cost of cosmetic dentistry and explain the steps you can take to make it as affordable as possible.
Which Cosmetic Dental Service Is Right for Me?
Cosmetic dentistry comes in many different forms, and each service comes with its own price tag. Below is a quick look at some of the cosmetic dental services available at our practice:
- Veneers: Compared to other forms of cosmetic dentistry, veneers tend to be on the costlier side. That said, they can also be a great option for addressing multiple imperfections on your teeth, and they can last for many years with the right care.
- Direct Bonding: Direct bonding is one of the cheapest options for correcting aesthetic flaws on your smile. Like veneers, it is very versatile and can be used to make various kinds of changes; however, it also tends to be less durable than other options.
- Teeth Whitening: The cost of teeth whitening can vary depending on whether it’s done via an in-practice procedure or a take-home whitening kit. This treatment can be an excellent solution for patients who are bothered by stains or discolored spots on their teeth.
Why Cosmetic Dentistry Can Be a Great Investment
Cosmetic dentistry can have several benefits that make it worth the cost in the long run. For one thing, a dazzling smile can help you make a better first impression when meeting someone for the first time; this can make a significant difference during job interviews, first dates, and other key life events. Furthermore, fixing the imperfections on your teeth can help you feel more confident about your appearance, thereby giving your mental well-being a boost and making it easier to engage with others in social situations.
How to Make Cosmetic Dentistry Affordable
Our team wants you to be able to make your smile goals a reality without breaking the bank.
