Cosmetic Dentistry

Cosmetic dentistry is a catch-all term that encompasses many procedures whose goal is to enhance the beauty of ones teeth. These procedures are generally not covered by insurance, so you may have to pay out of pocket for these cosmetic dental procedures.

Among the procedures that are popular with cosmetic dentistry are

Dental Bleaching
This cosmetic dentistry procedure is when a cosmetic dentist bleaches a dental patient's teeth so that the yellow stains are removed, leaving behind a beautiful white smile.

Bonding
Bonding is a process where a cosmetic dentistry practitioner will make teeth that are misaligned, chipped, or crooked appear normal and straight.

Veneers
This is a process where a shell of material is overlayed upon the teeth in order to present a more wholesome appearance, eliminating discolorations and other defects.
