Porcelain Veneers
If you’re looking to get a Hollywood-style smile, then veneers are the way to do it. With them, we can fix and mask a whole array of cosmetic imperfections with just one treatment. They can:
- Instantly whiten teeth
- Eliminate small chips and cracks
- Close gaps
- Make small or misshapen teeth appear normal
- Straighten slightly misaligned teeth
They are extremely thin ceramic coverings that are bonded to the teeth, and they can be custom-made to give you everything from a minor touch-up to a complete smile makeover.
Metal-Free Dental Restorations
If you have a damaged tooth that shows when you smile, then we’ll use a natural-looking metal-free dental restoration to repair it. These all-ceramic crowns, inlays, and onlays are just as strong as their metal counterparts, and they can be specially shaded to blend in seamlessly with the rest of your smile. Thanks to our team’s meticulous attention to detail and our own in-house dental lab, we’ll make sure that only you and your dentist will know that you’ve had dental work.

Cosmetic Dental Bonding
Have a small stain, chip, or gap that completely throws off the appearance of your smile? For these kinds of minor issues, we can quickly fix them with direct cosmetic tooth bonding. Your cosmetic dentist will start by applying a tooth-colored composite resin to your tooth, and then they’ll use it to literally sculpt away any problem you might have. It’s just that simple, and it can drastically improve your smile’s appearance in as little as an hour without the need of any local anesthetic.
Teeth Whitening
Have your teeth become stained or discolored over the years? Everything from the foods and beverages we enjoy every day to aging and genetics can affect the color of our smile, so to turn back the clock and restore your bright shine, we’re happy to offer both in-office and at-home professional teeth whitening. Whether you want to whiten your teeth as quickly as possible or in the comfort of your own home, we can easily give you a smile that’s 6-10 shades whiter in no time!

Invisalign
Invisalign now allows adults with crooked, crowded, or gapped teeth to get them straightened without having to wear bulky metal braces. It uses a series of clear plastic aligner trays to shift the teeth in the most discreet and comfortable way possible. With this treatment, you’ll be able to smile with confidence the entire time, plus you can easily take the trays out whenever you need to eat or brush your teeth.
Virtual Smile Design
With our virtual smile design system, we can help you look into the future and give you a preview of what your smile will look like after undergoing a particular cosmetic dental treatment. Using a digital picture of your current smile, we’ll manipulate it to create your own “before & after” shots so you can have a better idea of what to expect. You can show these images to friends and family to get their opinion, and you can even use them to ask us to make any adjustments so we can be certain that we’re giving you the perfect smile.
Cosmetic Dentistry Frequently Asked Questions
You don’t need to feel embarrassed by your less than perfect teeth. You can achieve the smile of your dreams with the help of your cosmetic dentist in Altamonte Springs.

We’ll take the time to explain what you can expect on the road ahead. In the meantime, here are the answers to a few of the most common questions we are asked to help ease any apprehensions.
What are popular cosmetic procedures?

What will my new smile look like?

This allows us to make adjustments before we get started to ensure you’re achieving the exact smile you want.
Can my teen benefit from cosmetic dentistry?
Candidacy for cosmetic treatments is determined by various factors, like age. There are several cosmetic treatments suitable for teens, like metal-free restorations, direct bonding, and Invisalign. There are also some procedures that require a patient to have all their permanent teeth. As a result, your teen will need a comprehensive consultation to determine if they are a candidate for cosmetic dentistry.
How long will the process take?
There isn’t any way to determine how long your transformation process will take without first creating a treatment plan. Some procedures can be completed in a matter of minutes, like direct bonding. Others might take several months, such as with Invisalign. We’ll explain your treatment plan and how long you can expect the process to take during your initial consultation. We know your time is valuable, which is why we offer flexible dental office hours and the latest technology to save time in the dental chair without compromising the results.
Can I use my dental insurance?
In recent years, it was rare for dental insurances to cover cosmetic treatments because they are considered elective procedures; however, there is a gray area. Nowadays, restorative and cosmetic dentistry often overlap, such as when repairing a broken tooth with a metal-free restoration. As a result, if a treatment is deemed necessary for your oral health, your insurance may cover a portion of the cost.
A member of our team will work on your behalf with your insurance carrier to file the claim forms required to lower your out-of-pocket expense. We’ll explain your payment options for any remaining balance to keep your dream smile within your budget.
