A cosmetic dentist is trained to safely and effectively provide a variety of treatments that are designed to enhance your smile. If you have missing teeth, you feel that your teeth are crooked, or you're an adult looking for an alternative to braces, a cosmetic dentist can help you achieve the beautiful smile you've always wanted.
Just as every smile we treat is unique, so are the treatments we provide. While cosmetic treatment times may vary, some treatments are completed within one office visit.
Insurance coverage and out-of-pocket expenses for cosmetic treatment vary. Our practice will work with you to provide several different treatment options, and we will coordinate with your insurance provider, if coverage is available. You will know all of your treatment costs up-front so that you can choose the best payment plan for your needs and your budget.
Patients who experience the most benefit from having their teeth whitened:
Are in good dental health
Maintain good dental health (i.e. brush three times a day, floss, receive regular dental checkups every six months, etc.)
May suffer from slightly discolored or yellow teeth
Wish to improve the look of their smile for aesthetic purposes
Are in good physical health
Teeth whitening is a safe, effective procedure, and does not typically include any negative side effects. Minor side effects may consist of:
Increased tooth sensitivity to hot or cold
White spots on the surface of the teeth (a potential side effect of at-home whitening systems)
Nighttime whitening trays may cause additional gum sensitivity or irritation.
A beautiful smile is only a phone call or click away.
