Porcelain Veneers

Veneers are a versatile cosmetic treatment that can correct a wide variety of cosmetic flaws, including dental discoloration, gaps between teeth, and damaged enamel. They’re thin, durable shells that can be custom-made from porcelain to replicate the appearance of natural tooth enamel. They seamlessly fit over the visible portion of the teeth, creating a full, bright, and symmetrical smile.

Invisalign

Invisalign is a modern orthodontic treatment that utilizes clear, custom-fitted aligners to gradually shift your teeth into their ideal positions. Every week, you’ll move onto the next series of trays in your treatment until you achieve your final results. Invisalign aligners are convenient because they’re hardly noticeable whenever they’re in the mouth and are removable, allowing you to brush easily and continue eating all of your favorite foods throughout your treatment.

Metal-Free Dental Restorations

Do you have an outdated metal filling or crown that has become the focal point of your smile even though you don’t want it to be? Maintaining good oral health doesn’t mean you have to jeopardize your grin’s appearance. We offer natural-looking, safe, and customized dental restorations that are made from materials like porcelain, zirconia, and Emax. Once placed, onlookers won’t be able to tell which teeth have restorations and which don’t.

Cosmetic Dental Bonding

Cosmetic bonding is a cost-effective and simple solution for teeth that are chipped, damaged, or gapped. Using a composite resin that’s custom-shaded to match the color of your surrounding teeth, Dr. Burton will sculpt the missing portion of your tooth and adhere it to your damaged one. Typically, this treatment can be completed within a single appointment, and with the proper care, the results can last for up to 10 years.

Understanding the Cost of Cosmetic Dentistry

Cosmetic dentistry has earned a reputation among some people for being expensive. This could have something to do with the fact that it’s rarely covered by insurance, but the fact is that there are all kinds of aesthetic treatments available to you. Odds are, there’s an option that could fit your budget.

If you want to know more about the finances of aesthetic dentistry, here’s some information you might find useful.

What Cosmetic Dental Service is Right for Me?

Picking a cosmetic treatment requires balancing between what it is that you need to improve your smile and what will fit your budget.

If you’re looking for procedures on the inexpensive side, you might be interested in direct bonding or teeth whitening. The former is excellent at repairing small chips and cracks, while the latter can do a lot to brighten your smile.

On the pricier side there are braces and veneers. These allow you to make more substantial changes to the look and alignment of your smile, but entail a higher cost than some other treatments.

If you’re willing to spare no expense, you may even be interested in a smile makeover. This involves combining a variety of treatments to repair serious issues with your teeth. While can obviously be an expensive option, we’ll still talk with you about ways that you can make this care fit your budget.

Cosmetic Dentistry Can Be An Investment Worth Making

It can sometimes be a little bit hard to quantify what you get from cosmetic treatment. While it’s obvious why it’s important to deal with a toothache, the benefits of a beautiful smile can seem a bit more abstract.

However, that doesn’t mean that they’re any less real. The confidence that comes with loving your smile will improve how you perform at work, and how you feel in your social life. It’s an investment in yourself, one that’s sure to pay off in spades.

How to Make Cosmetic Dentistry Affordable

Aesthetic dental is considered by dental insurance companies to be purely elective, which means that it’s unlikely to be covered. That being the case, you may be interested in pursuing other options that can make your dental care affordable.

If you’re worried about whether you can afford to pay for care all at once, you may be interested in financing services. These can allow you to split the cost of your treatment across several months, which may fit more easily into your budget.

We often work with CareCredit, which offers low-to-no interest financing to patients who qualify. If you’re interested, give us a call and we’ll talk to you about the monetary options available to you.
