Book Your Cosmetic ConsultationFrequently Asked Questions About Cosmetic Dentistry
Cosmetic dentistry is the area of dental care focused on improving the appearance of your teeth and smile. It includes treatments such as teeth whitening, bonding, veneers, and clear aligners. These treatments can change the color, shape, size, and alignment of your teeth in natural-looking ways. Many cosmetic treatments also improve how your teeth function, so the benefits go beyond appearance.
At our Somersworth, NH office, we offer teeth whitening, dental bonding, veneers, and full mouth rehabilitation. Each treatment addresses different concerns, from stained teeth to chips, gaps, and uneven teeth. Many patients combine more than one treatment for the best result. Our team will help you choose what fits your goals and your timeline.
The best treatment depends on your concerns, the condition of your teeth, and the amount of change you want. Whitening is a good choice for stained teeth, while bonding works well for small chips and gaps. Veneers can change color, shape, and length together, and full mouth rehabilitation brings several treatments together for a complete transformation. During your consultation, we will examine your teeth and recommend the most conservative option that will give you the result you want.
Results vary depending on the treatment and how you care for your teeth. Whitening can last months to years, bonding typically lasts several years, and porcelain veneers are among the longest-lasting options. Good home care, regular cleanings, and protecting your teeth from grinding all help your results last longer. We will explain what to expect for each treatment during your consultation.
Cosmetic treatments are safe when planned and performed with care. Many options, such as whitening and bonding, are conservative and preserve your natural tooth structure. Veneers involve removing a thin layer of enamel, which we explain clearly before you decide. We examine your teeth and gums first so every treatment is matched to your oral health.
Yes, many patients combine treatments to achieve their ideal smile. A common example is whitening first and then refining the shape of a few teeth with bonding or veneers. Because the order matters, we plan combined treatments carefully so the colors and shapes match. For patients who need extensive work, full mouth rehabilitation offers one coordinated plan.
Restorative dentistry repairs or replaces damaged or missing teeth to restore health and function, using treatments like fillings and crowns. Cosmetic dentistry focuses mainly on improving how your smile looks. The two often overlap, since many restorations are designed to look natural, and many cosmetic treatments also protect your teeth. We offer both, so your care stays coordinated in one trusted office.
Most dental plans do not cover treatments that are purely cosmetic, such as whitening and veneers. Some plans may help with procedures that also restore function, such as bonding to repair a damaged tooth. We accept all dental insurance plans except Medicaid and are in-network with Delta Dental Premier, and we offer financing through Sunbit. Our team will review your benefits and explain your costs before you begin, and you can learn more on our Insurance and Financing page.
