3 Reasons to Invest in Cosmetic Dentistry

Cosmetic dentistry is one of the most in-demand fields of dentistry. More and more people are choosing to improve their smiles to enhance their overall appearance. It is common for teeth to show the effects of life and age over time, such as yellowing, chips, and worn down teeth. Some imperfections may have been there your whole life, such as crooked teeth, gaps, and discoloration. 

If you’re thinking of getting cosmetic dentistry, here are 3 reasons to make the investment. 

1. Get a Healthier, More Natural Looking Smile
   
   The primary goal of cosmetic dentistry is to improve the appearance of your teeth to make your smile look more natural. This may involve a variety of treatments and procedures that can repair damage, straighten and whiten teeth, and more. Unlike other dental procedures that are focused on restoring the health of your teeth or replacing damaged or missing teeth, cosmetic dentistry is just about appearances. That being said, the health of your teeth and mouth is always our top priority, and we will provide any necessary restorative procedures first and foremost. 
   
2. Advancements in Technology Have Improved Cosmetic Dentistry 
   
   With advancements in technology, cosmetic dentistry creates smiles that look more natural than ever before. With high quality materials, such as porcelain that closely resembles the shine and texture of your tooth enamel, we can create smiles that are so natural looking that no one can tell you have had cosmetic treatment. 
   
3. Boost Your Confidence 
   
   When you feel good about the way your smile looks it gives your confidence a boost. When you feel more confident you smile more, which can also improve your mood. A new smile can give you the confidence to make positive changes in your life, from pursuing new relationships to making advancements in your career. Your personal and professional life may improve in ways you never thought possible, all with the help of cosmetic dentistry. 

Common Cosmetic Dental Procedures 

Cosmetic dentistry typically includes the following treatments and procedures: 

• Teeth whitening. Professional teeth whitening treatments provide dramatic results in as little as one in-office treatment or within 2 weeks of at-home treatments. 
• Invisalign. Invisalign clear aligners straighten teeth and close gaps, providing an improved smile in 6-18 months. 
• Veneers. Porcelain or composite veneers attach to the front side of your teeth, concealing imperfections and improving your smile. 
• Cosmetic bonding. Tooth-colored composite material can be applied to the teeth to restore the natural shape and conceal discoloration. 

Frequently Asked Questions About Cosmetic Dentistry 

Is cosmetic dentistry covered by insurance? 

Dental insurance does not cover cosmetic dentistry in most cases. If the procedure also serves a dental health purpose, such as Invisalign, your insurance plan may include coverage. Contact your insurance provider for specific information about your plan and coverage. 

Is cosmetic dentistry affordable? 

The term “investment” is used when referring to cosmetic dentistry because the cost is typically paid out of pocket. However, there are a variety of payment and financing options that can make cosmetic dentistry more affordable. We would be happy to discuss these options with you during your consultation.
