What Can Cosmetic Dentistry Improve?

Cosmetic dental treatments at the Art of Dentistry Institute can address a wide variety of smile imperfections, including:

  • Chips, cracks, and worn edges that age the smile.
  • Stains and discoloration that don’t respond to over-the-counter whitening.
  • Uneven tooth lengths or minor crowding/spaces that distract the eye.
  • Gumline asymmetry that throws off the smile’s balance.
  • Old or mismatched dental work that no longer blends with your natural teeth.

Many of these concerns can be addressed conservatively, often without extensive treatment, by focusing on proportion, balance, and material selection.

Our Smile Design Process

  1. Conversation & Smile Preview

    We start with your goals, digital photos, and iTero® scans to preview possibilities and set a clear direction.

  2. Customized Plan

    We map out timing, number of teeth involved, and material choices to balance aesthetics, function, and budget.

  3. Trial Phase (When Indicated)

    A provisional “trial smile” lets you live with the new look before final ceramics, so contours feel natural.

  4. Final Restorations

    Premium ceramics are crafted for lifelike translucency and fit, then finished with precise bite adjustments.

  5. Follow-Up & Maintenance

    We review care tips and maintenance to keep your smile bright and healthy for years to come.
