Veneers
Dental veneers are thin shells made of dental ceramic or porcelain. They are bonded directly to the front surfaces of your teeth and can mask imperfections to provide a picture-perfect smile. Because the ceramic we use matches the natural color of tooth enamel, they are virtually indistinguishable from your natural teeth.
Teeth Whitening
Store-bought teeth whitening kits simply don’t deliver the dramatic results that most patients are hoping to see. Our teeth whitening treatments at Lifetime Dental Care are proven to brighten teeth by up to eight shades, all without damaging your tooth enamel or causing sensitivity. You can either come in for a quick hour-long in-office treatment or grab a take-home kit to brighten your smile after your next dental cleaning.

Dental Bonding
Dental bonding is a simple, conservative way to improve the appearance of your smile. During the bonding process, our skilled dentists and team place a composite resin material directly onto the tooth structure. Because the resin is malleable and puttylike when first applied, we can shape and sculpt it to fit your tooth and correct flaws. The composite resin is then hardened, trimmed and polished to provide a lasting, aesthetic restoration for your smile.
Dental bonding typically requires just one visit to our welcoming dental office, and because this treatment usually necessitates little to no tooth preparation, you can rest assured that your visit will be quick and comfortable. Dental bonding can be used to close gaps and spaces between teeth, improve misshapen teeth, lighten stained or discolored teeth, or restore chipped or cracked teeth.
BOTOX® Injections
Fine lines and facial wrinkles are some of the most common signs of aging. Oftentimes, the most noticeable place where wrinkles can first develop are on the face! Our team can help minimize signs of aging with a simple and quick aesthetic treatment, BOTOX. By injecting BOTOX into overworked muscles, it will help them relax and smooth out, helping create a more youthful frame for your smile.
Smile Makeovers
Smile makeovers are combinations of multiple cosmetic procedures. Our dentists and team will work with you to determine your needs and recommend the treatments that will provide the greatest improvements to your smile.
Cosmetic Dentistry FAQs
What is cosmetic dentistry?
Cosmetic dentistry is the field of dentistry that focuses on improving the appearance of your teeth. Treatments are designed to enhance the overall appearance and effect of your smile and are tailored to each individual patient.
How much does cosmetic dentistry cost?
Treatment costs vary depending on the complexity of the treatments that you require. After a consultation with our dentists, we will be able to give you a cost estimate. Our practice also offers a variety of financing options to help make your beautiful smile a reality.
What dental problems do cosmetic dentistry address?
Almost all aesthetic issues can be treated with cosmetic dentistry. Common problems include chipped, cracked, stained, misaligned, and uneven teeth.
How effective is teeth whitening?
Professional, in-office teeth whitening treatments can be extremely effective. We often see patients whose teeth become several shades brighter after a single, one-hour appointment at our office. Take-home and over-the-counter whitening treatments are slower and less effective than treatments performed at our practice.
What are the best treatment options for chipped or cracked teeth?
Your treatment will depend on the severity of the damage. For minor chips and cracks, our dentists may recommend dental bonding or composite fillings. If you have moderate to severe damage, our dentists may recommend anything from a dental veneer to a dental crown to restore your tooth.
Can I replace my metal fillings with tooth-colored fillings?
Absolutely! It is actually fairly common for patients with gold or amalgam fillings to have our dentists and team replace their restorations with tooth-colored materials. This can be done for aesthetics or health reasons.
Is cosmetic dentistry actually effective?
Because cosmetic dentistry deals primarily with the aesthetics of your smile, you may need to see the results before you can decide if a cosmetic treatment is effective. We often see our patients experience great benefits from cosmetic dentistry. Please feel free to visit or contact our office for more information.
