Veneers
Veneers are able to conceal a number of imperfections at once, like misshapen teeth, gapped teeth, damaged teeth, and even severe discoloration that can’t be treated with teeth whitening. They’re thin, durable porcelain restorations that are custom-designed to fit over the visible surface of the teeth to cover the area that’s shown when you smile. Because they’re individually crafted, you can choose to enhance the appearance of just one, several, or all of your visible teeth to take your smile to the next level.
Metal-Free Restorations
Dental fillings and crowns were once crafted only from metal compounds, which were durable, but they lacked an aesthetic finesse because they stood out like a sore thumb next to untreated teeth. Today, you don’t have to compromise functionality for aesthetics. Our team uses highly customizable materials to give you the best in protection and appearance, like ceramic and porcelain.
Cosmetic Bonding
When minor dental damage occurs, like if you accidentally trip and chip a tooth on the concrete, cosmetic bonding is a fast and cost-effective way to restore your smile’s original appearance. Using the same tooth-colored composite resin our team uses to fill cavities, we can sculpt the missing tooth structure and texturize it to look virtually indistinguishable from natural enamel. After curing it with UV light, the results can last for several years!
Teeth Whitening
Over time, whether it’s due to aging, genetics, or simply loving coffee, your teeth can become stained and discolored. This yellow-ish blanket over your otherwise healthy pearly whites can cause you to feel less confident showing off your smile. Instead of opting for store-bought whitening products that make big promises that they don’t always deliver on, our team provides professional-grade, customized take-home Opalescence Go teeth whitening kits. With the ability to brighten your smile by up to eight shades within two weeks, you can achieve safer, more predictable results.
Smile Makeovers
When several different aesthetic imperfections impact your smile, a complete makeover may be the solution. Dr. Van de Vyver or Dr. Leppek will sit down with you to create a custom-tailored comprehensive treatment plan to help make your dream smile a reality. Based on your budget and ideal timeline, your plan will include two or more of any of our cosmetic or restorative treatments, like Invisalign, teeth whitening, bonding, veneers, or even dental implants.
Understanding the Cost of Cosmetic Dentistry
Even if you want cosmetic dentistry, you should still learn its price before you commit to it. (You may end up with a treatment you can’t afford otherwise.) That said, the cost of cosmetic dentistry in Shelby Township varies by patient; you’ll need to consult us for a precise estimate. We’ll then work on ways to make your care affordable, all while outlining its price factors, helpful payment options, and more. For further details, please keep reading or call us soon!
Which Cosmetic Dental Service is Right for Me?
Patients who get cosmetic dentistry want one (or more) of three things: whiter teeth, straighter teeth, or differently-shaped teeth. Still, its services have distinct prices and effects; you must consider your options carefully to ensure you get cost-effective care.
At the Smiles in Shelby office, we offer the following cosmetic dental procedures:
- Cosmetic Bonding – As a treatment that hides smile flaws with tooth-colored resin, cosmetic bonding has a relatively low cost. It’s thus well-suited for patients with small budgets.
- Teeth Whitening – Professional teeth whitening (per its name) brightens your smile by applying bleaching gel to your enamel. At our practice, we offer it via take-home kits.
- Veneers – Veneers are small shells placed on the fronts of teeth. Their versatility lets them hide a wide range of smile flaws, but also makes them a tad expensive.
- Metal-Free Restorations – Our team can provide you with metal-free dental fillings and crowns, which use ceramic and porcelain to blend seamlessly with your smile.
- Invisalign – Using clear trays or “aligners,” Invisalign straightens crooked teeth over 12 to 18 months. This treatment is a major financial commitment, though; it can cost thousands of dollars.
- Smile Makeovers – Instead of a distinct service, a smile makeover combines several aesthetic procedures into one treatment. It’s thus the most expensive form of cosmetic dentistry.
Cosmetic Dentistry Can Be a Worthwhile Investment
Although these services are considered elective, cosmetic dentistry is a good investment. Any one of its treatments can provide priceless benefits and long-term savings.
For starters, a grin transformed by treatment offers a higher quality of life. Smiles beautified by dental work can boost confidence, ease stress, and improve first impressions. In doing so, they’ll enhance the average patient’s mental and emotional health for a long while.
Cosmetic dentistry can also “pay off” financially, as surprising as that might sound. Its varied smile improvements can help you get a job, snag a promotion, earn a raise, etc. To that extent, a treatment would practically pay for itself.
How to Make Cosmetic Dentistry Affordable
While cosmetic dentistry isn’t covered by dental insurance, it can still be affordable. Just rely on our practice’s helpful payment options, including:
- In-House Membership Plan – By paying an annual fee of $339, you can join our practice’s in-house membership plan. This option would provide (among other things) a 15% discount on cosmetic dental services.
- Flexible Financing – We gladly let patients work with CareCredit and Cherry, third-party financiers that help you pay for treatments in monthly installments.
Making your grin gorgeous doesn’t have to strain your finances. Instead, please visit us – we can beautify your smile affordably!
