Explore Your Cosmetic Dentistry Options in Sacramento

Cosmetic dentistry offers several ways to address concerns involving tooth color, shape, spacing, wear, and minor damage. We recommend options according to what you would like to change and the condition of your teeth.

Dental Veneers

Dental veneers are thin, custom-made shells placed over the front surfaces of selected teeth. They may be used to improve discoloration, small chips, minor gaps, or teeth with an uneven shape.

We plan veneers with the surrounding teeth, proportions, and overall smile in mind to help create a balanced appearance.

Teeth Whitening

Professional teeth whitening can brighten teeth affected by stains or yellowing.

Treatment is selected according to your existing tooth color and the type of discoloration present. Unlike over-the-counter products used without professional supervision, professional whitening allows us to tailor the approach to your individual needs.

Dental Bonding

Dental bonding uses tooth-colored material to reshape small areas of a tooth. It may be considered for minor chips, cracks, gaps, or uneven edges.

Bonding can provide a conservative option for selected cosmetic concerns while preserving much of the natural tooth structure.

Dental Crowns and Onlays

Crowns and onlays can restore teeth affected by damage, wear, discoloration, or loss of tooth structure while addressing both appearance and function.

A crown covers more of the tooth, while an onlay restores specific areas when a full crown may not be necessary. We recommend the approach that fits the condition of the tooth and its restorative needs.

Your Cosmetic Dentistry Consultation, Step by Step

Discuss Your Goals and Smile Concerns

We begin by asking what you like about your smile and what you would like to change. We also examine your teeth, gums, bite, and existing dental work so cosmetic recommendations account for your current oral health.

Review Your Personalized Treatment Plan

After the examination, we review the treatments that may address your concerns and outline the recommended sequence and general timeline for care.

If several options may be suitable, we compare them with you so you can choose the one that best fits your needs and goals.

Begin Treatment When You’re Ready

Once you understand the available options, you can decide whether and when you would like to proceed.

If you choose treatment, we schedule the appropriate appointments according to the plan you have selected.

Addressing Common Concerns About Cosmetic Dentistry

It is normal to have practical questions before making changes to your smile.

  • Comfort: The experience varies according to the procedure. We explain what to expect and use appropriate comfort measures during treatment.
  • Appearance: Cosmetic treatment is planned around your existing teeth and overall smile rather than aiming for an identical result for every patient.
  • Treatment time: Some procedures require relatively few visits, while more involved cosmetic plans may be completed over several appointments.
  • Cost and financing: Fees depend on the treatment and number of teeth involved. We provide an estimate after your consultation and can discuss available payment or financing options.
