Veneers
With dental veneers, extremely thin ceramic coverings are placed on the front of the teeth, and these act like masks to give the smile a more uniform and attractive appearance. This treatment is able to correct multiple imperfections at the same time, and once in place, veneers can be trusted to look great for about 20 years! You can get just one or an entire set completely custom-made in as little as two appointments.
Lumineers
Lumineers are very similar to traditional veneers, except for one thing: they are much thinner. This means they can be placed onto the teeth as is. With veneers, a small amount of enamel has to be removed in order for them to lay flat, but this step is unnecessary with Lumineers. It’s a much more conservative treatment that’s still able to deliver fantastic results, and it always leaves the option open for a patient to go back to their natural smile.
Metal-Free Dental Crowns
In our dental office, patients always get a little more compared to other dentists. If you come to see us with a tooth in need of repair, instead of just giving you a metal crown that will instantly stick out in your smile, our dentists will provide an all-porcelain one. These can be shaped and shaded to perfectly recreate the appearance of natural enamel down to the finest detail, so much so that only you and our dentists will be able to tell where your crown is!
Cosmetic Dental Bonding
Fast, easy, and effective, cosmetic bonding involves applying composite resin to a flawed tooth so our dentists can literally sculpt it to perfection. Once in place, the resin can be used to cover a small chip, gap, or stain to make it seem like it was never there. After you approve the final look, the resin is quickly hardened with a curing light, and that’s it! This procedure allows many patients to improve their smile in as little as an hour.
Teeth Whitening
Has coffee, wine, tobacco, or simply aging caused your teeth to stain and discolor? If so, our teeth whitening treatments can seemingly turn back the clock and in most cases can make your smile six to ten shades lighter! We can give you a complete treatment in our dental office that only takes an hour, as well we will send you home with your own custom-kit to continue the process. The end result will be a brighter grin you can trust to shine for several months to come.
Gum Recontouring
Whenever you smile, does your gum line overshadow your teeth? We can fix this with cosmetic gum recontouring, which involves removing excess tissue to reveal previously hidden enamel. This can instantly make the teeth appear longer, fuller, and in better proportion to the face, creating a much more attractive smile in a single appointment. Plus, this treatment can lower someone’s risk for gum disease as well!
Virtual Smile Design
Before getting a cosmetic dentistry treatment, our team can take a picture of your smile and digitally edit it to show you what you’ll look like after receiving veneers, teeth whitening, or any other procedure you’re interested in. You’ll be able to design your ideal look right alongside our dentists, and once you love what you see in the simulated “After” image, they can get to work turning it into your actual smile.

Which Cosmetic Dental Service is Right for Me?
Today, there are more cosmetic dental services to choose from than ever before! If you’re not quite sure which one is right for you, don’t worry – we will help you decide at your consultation. In the meantime, here’s some cost-related information to keep in mind:
- Veneers – Typically, veneers have the highest upfront cost. Don’t let that deter you though; they also can last for well over a decade and can conceal multiple imperfections at once!
- Lumineers – If you want the look of veneers without the commitment, then consider Lumineers! They also can last for over a decade with proper care, making them cost-effective in the long run.
- Cosmetic Dental Bonding – This is one of the most affordable smile-enhancing services we offer, but it’s important to note that it’s only recommended for minor flaws, like a small chip.
- Metal-Free Restorations – Since they are typically considered “medically necessary,” dental insurance providers often cover a portion of the cost, making them quite affordable.
- Teeth Whitening – Professional treatments are more expensive than over-the-counter products, but they also are reliable, custom, safe, and effective.
Cosmetic Dentistry Can Be an Investment Worth Making – Here’s Why
Whether you are ready to fix a small flaw that has always bothered you or you want a completely new look, you’ll find that investing in cosmetic dentistry is well worth it. Not only will you have new-found confidence, but you will also be more motivated to care for your smile, reducing your risk of common oral health problems. Plus, many services that fall under the cosmetic dentistry umbrella also improve the alignment of your teeth, which helps prevent tooth decay and gum disease.
How to Make Cosmetic Dentistry Affordable
If your dental plan includes benefits that can be used toward veneers or metal-free restorations, then we will help you utilize them to the fullest. Sadly, however, most providers don’t cover the cost of cosmetic dental treatments since they aren’t “medically necessary.” That’s where CareCredit comes in! This third-party financier offers payment plans so patients don’t have to pay for the entire cost of their smile makeover at once. Instead, they can break up the price into smaller, monthly installments that work for them.
Do you still have a few questions about the cost? Maybe you’re ready to schedule a consultation so you can get a more precise estimate of the price of your smile makeover. Either way, the next step is the same: get in touch with our team at Kramer Dental!
