Porcelain Veneers

Veneers are often referred to as a one-stop-shop because they’re able to address a wide variety of cosmetic problems with one treatment, including severe discoloration, dental damage, and even slight misalignment. The veneers are thin, durable shells that are cemented over the visible surface of teeth to make the smile appear symmetrical, complete, and brighter within two appointments.

Metal-Free Dental Crowns

In the past, dentists would use metal materials to craft dental crowns. Not only were these highly noticeable and highlighted damaged teeth, but they also caused side-effects like sensitivity and tooth and gum discoloration. We utilize high-quality dental materials like ceramic, zirconia, and porcelain to make restorations that not only blend in with the rest of your smile, but are safe for your teeth and gums as well.

Cosmetic Dental Bonding

If you have teeth that are chipped, damaged, gapped, or discolored, cosmetic bonding is a simple, cost-effective solution that can help. Using composite resin, our team is able to sculpt the missing portion of your teeth to complete its appearance. The resin is able to chemically fuse with the enamel to allow it to function similarly to your natural dental structure.

Understanding the Cost of Cosmetic Dentistry

The cost of cosmetic dentistry depends on which services you undergo and the extent of your treatment plan. During your consultation, we can share some specific numbers with you and help you understand your payment options. We accept financing, and we offer discounts for patients who sign up for our in-house savings plan.

Which Cosmetic Dental Service Is Right for Me?

Cosmetic dentistry offers several different treatments, each of which has its own pros, cons, and cost. Here is an overview of some popular options that are available in our office:

  • Teeth whitening is one of the most affordable cosmetic options. A custom take-home kit starts out at just a few hundred dollars and can brighten your teeth by several shades in a matter of weeks.
  • Direct bonding, also known as dental bonding, may be just a few hundred dollars per tooth. In just one appointment, it can disguise a range of aesthetic imperfections, such as cracks, chips, and more.
  • Veneers are thin pieces of porcelain that we attach to the teeth in order to hide their flaws. They are much more durable and long-lasting than bonding. However, since they are a premium treatment, their cost is relatively high.
  • Invisalign clear aligners often cost at least a few thousand dollars. They are a great option if you have significant dental misalignment that is affecting both your appearance and your oral health.
  • A smile makeover is a custom cosmetic treatment plan that can combine multiple services. Although it is the most expensive option, it is also the most efficient and comprehensive way of enhancing your smile’s appearance.

Cosmetic Dentistry Can Be an Investment Worth Making

Because cosmetic dentistry may seem expensive, you might wonder if it is really worth your money. That is something you must decide for yourself. However, we can assure you that most patients are very happy with their decision to invest in their smile. As a result of cosmetic treatment, you may experience several benefits, including:

  • Increased confidence
  • A more youthful appearance
  • Increased motivation to take great care of your teeth
  • The ability to make a more powerful first impression
  • Easier interactions in social and professional settings

How to Make Cosmetic Dentistry Affordable

Cosmetic dentistry is not usually covered by insurance. The only exceptions are when a service offers both cosmetic and oral health benefits. This is often true of metal-free restorations. Invisalign also receives coverage in some cases. Our team welcomes insurance, and we can help you figure out how your benefits might apply.

Other provisions that might make it easier to afford your cosmetic services include:

  • Most patients are eligible for low-interest financing through CareCredit. The application process is easy, and you may qualify for a payment plan that fits into your monthly budget.
  • In-house membership plan. In exchange for a reasonable annual fee, you can enjoy preventive services and a 13% discount on other treatments performed in our office. That could save you hundreds of dollars on cosmetic services!
