Dental Bonding
Is there a small chip that’s been bothering you for a long time? Or is there a single stain that just doesn’t seem to ever go away? Even a small cosmetic imperfection might make you too embarrassed to smile, but direct bonding can give you the quick, beautiful solution you’re looking for. A small amount of dental composite resin will be placed on your tooth to cover the problematic area. Once the material is sculpted and shaded appropriately, it simply needs to be cured, and your new smile will be ready.

Teeth Whitening
Over-the-counter products often just aren’t enough when trying to get rid of stains and discolored patches on the enamel. Our professional whitening kits contain stronger bleaching material than what you can find in stores. Simply fill the provided trays with bleaching gel and wear them for a certain amount of time every day, and in just a couple of weeks, you’ll notice that your teeth are dramatically brighter. We also offer in-office whitening that can be completed in just an hour!

Metal-Free Dental Restorations
Our crowns are made entirely out of porcelain with no metal at all. Porcelain is a very durable material that not only resists staining, but can also withstand the daily pressures of biting and chewing. It can be designed to match your other teeth perfectly so you can keep your smile looking as natural as possible even after you’ve had a tooth repaired. We also offer tooth-colored fillings as an image-friendly solution for minor dental damage.
Porcelain Veneers
When celebrities and models need to create a picture-perfect smile for the cameras, many of them turn to veneers – ultra-thin sheaths of tooth-colored material that completely cover the enamel and make stains, chips, cracks, gaps, and other cosmetic flaws completely vanish behind a pristine set of teeth. This treatment isn’t just for the stars though; anyone can enjoy a new and improved grin with veneers after just two appointments.
Understanding the Cost of Cosmetic Dentistry
If you’ve finally built up the courage to seek out cosmetic dentistry, one concern you might still have is the associated cost of care – especially since these elective procedures aren’t usually covered by dental insurance. Remember, there is no set or average cost for cosmetic dentistry since it depends on a patient’s specific goals and needs.
Here at Avion Dental & Orthodontics, our team is committed to ensuring that you’re able to afford your dream smile without any financial stress. Not only can we help you choose the service that’s right for your smile and budget, but we can also assist you as you explore your different payment options.
Which Cosmetic Dental Service Is Right for Me?
There is a cosmetic dental service out there for pretty much every type of imaginable flaw that can affect teeth. This means that no matter what you’re trying to accomplish, our team can help! Some possibilities include:
- Dental Bonding – This option is a relatively quick and cost-effective means of addressing small flaws like chips and cracks. It involves the use of composite resin to cover up flaws in select teeth. It can be redone every few years as needed.
- Teeth Whitening – If you’re unhappy with the shade of your smile, this treatment can brighten it by several shades. It’s generally quite affordable, with most treatments only costing a few hundred dollars and lasting for several months or a couple of years.
- Porcelain Veneers – This comprehensive treatment involves thin porcelain shells that are bonded to the outer surfaces of teeth to hide any present flaws. While it’s more costly than other cosmetic solutions, the price is directly reflected in its beautiful, lasting results.
Cosmetic Dentistry Can Be an Investment Worth Making
We know that cosmetic dentistry can feel like a significant financial commitment; however, you should realize that it’s an investment that’ll pay for itself in the long run. For instance, an attractive smile dramatically boosts your self-confidence, leading to more meaningful personal and professional connections – you might even find new open doors to opportunity! Likewise, many patients who undergo cosmetic dentistry also feel more motivated to take better care of their teeth, which improves their oral health in the long run and might even negate the need for costly future treatments.
How to Make Cosmetic Dentistry Affordable
Remember, cosmetic dentistry is rarely covered by most standard dental insurance plans, so if you’re hoping to make your dream smile more affordable, you’ll have to look elsewhere. The good news is that your options aren’t severely limited. Our office is proudly partnered with CareCredit, a third-party financer that offers flexible, low-interest plans to qualifying patients. These plans can be used on a variety of services, including your cosmetic solutions. We also offer in-house financing as well as a VIP plan that acts as an affordable alternative to insurance. Don’t hesitate to call our office to speak with a team member about signing up, or if you have any other questions or concerns!

How Do I Know If I Need Cosmetic Dentistry?
The bottom line is that anyone who isn’t truly happy with the appearance of their smile is an ideal candidate for cosmetic dentistry! There are countless treatments that can address all sorts of aesthetic issues and instill a newfound sense of self-esteem, including intrinsic and extrinsic staining, chips and fractures, gaps between teeth and many other unpleasant issues. It’s worth noting that you’ll need to visit your dentist beforehand for a consultation, but once they’ve approved you for treatment, a customized plan can be drawn up.
Does Cosmetic Dentistry Hurt?
You’ll be happy to hear that the vast majority of cosmetic dental procedures are pain-free and relatively comfortable to undergo—most patients don’t even need any type of anesthetic! Popular options such as teeth whitening and dental bonding are both very quick and very easy to perform, and patients often experience just a tad of sensitivity. And when it comes to options like veneers since some enamel must be removed it’s possible to feel minor discomfort—but nothing that can’t be easily alleviated.
Is Cosmetic Dentistry Expensive?
Many people associate cosmetic dentistry with the gleaming bright and white smiles they see in movies and on television, which leads them to believe that all of the treatments are expensive and inaccessible—but fortunately, this doesn’t have to be the case! Although dental insurance rarely covers elective procedures like cosmetic dental work, many practices offer additional financing and payment plans to alleviate the final cost. It’s also worth noting that improving your smile might seem costly at first, but it should be thought of as an investment; a good-looking smile can carry you far in the world!
How Long Does Cosmetic Dentistry Last?
Unfortunately, cosmetic dentistry isn’t intended to last forever—however, depending on the treatment performed, you can expect your results to last quite some time, especially if you practice excellent oral hygiene. For example, teeth whitening can last around a few months to a couple of years, while crowns can last for a few years before needing to be replaced. And veneers can last upwards of a decade after receiving them. Realistically, cosmetic dentistry lasts much longer if you’re on top of your oral hygiene!
