What Is Cosmetic Dentistry?
A cosmetic dentist performs procedures that aim to improve a patient's appearance. Some procedures, like crowns, bridges, and implants, also have therapeutic benefits.
Cosmetic procedures can correct the appearance of the following:
- Stained or discolored teeth
- Gapped teeth
- Misshapen teeth
- Chipped or cracked teeth
- Missing teeth
Benefits of Cosmetic Dentistry
Restores Appearance
Your cosmetic dentist uses advanced techniques to bring you a bright, even smile. Procedures like veneers create an attractive effect.
Improves Self-Confidence
If you feel ill at ease with your appearance, cosmetic dentistry can give you a boost. Cosmetic procedures improve the way you think about your smile. Your confidence will shine through, attracting personal and professional opportunities.
Corrects Signs of Aging
Teeth naturally turn yellow with age. Teeth whitening, veneers, and bonding can correct this problem and rejuvenate your appearance.
Prevent Tooth Damage
Veneers and bonding can protect chipped and cracked teeth, preventing further damage and making restoration unnecessary.

Procedures Offered
Teeth Whitening
We offer in-office and at-home teeth whitening. In-office whitening produces dramatic results in just one or two visits, while at-home whitening is more gradual. Both whitening methods are safe and effective.
Restorative Procedures With Cosmetic Benefits
- Crowns: These appliances cover broken, cracked, and stained teeth while restoring chewing function.
- Bridges: A bridge fills in a space left by an extracted tooth, providing better function while completing your smile.
- Dental Implants: Implants are the most advanced tooth replacements available today. They blend beautifully with your natural smile and fill gaps that may make you self-conscious.
Veneers
A dental veneer is a wafer-thin sheet that wraps around the front surfaces of your teeth, covering multiple aesthetic issues. In two easy appointments, veneers can correct chipped, cracked, discolored, and misshapen teeth.
- Composite Veneers: Composites are the most versatile and affordable veneer type.
- Porcelain Veneers: Porcelain veneers are tougher and more stain-resistant than composites, and they have a luster comparable to healthy tooth enamel.
Cosmetic Bonding
Dental bonding can correct many problems in one appointment. Dental bonding is an art form; your cosmetic dentist will create a new look for your teeth that blends perfectly with your smile.
- Matrix Bonding: This advanced procedure uses a mold to shape your new tooth surface with composite resin. It strengthens teeth while providing a brilliant smile.
Microabrasion
Your cosmetic dentist uses a safe, gritty polish to remove surface stains without the need for standard whitening solutions.
Frequently Asked Questions
Some patients' natural enamel is more yellow than others. Aging can cause yellow teeth because the enamel eventually wears down, exposing the dentin layer beneath.
Lifestyle habits like smoking and consuming staining foods and beverages may also cause your teeth to turn yellow. Fortunately, your cosmetic dentist has multiple techniques to correct a yellow shade.
