Popular Cosmetic Dental Treatments
We offer a comprehensive range of cosmetic treatments designed to address every aspect of your smile enhancement needs.
Teeth Whitening
Professional teeth whitening removes years of stains from coffee, wine, smoking, and natural aging. Our in-office whitening treatments can brighten your teeth several shades in just one visit, delivering dramatic results that over-the-counter products simply cannot match.
Clear Aligners
Straighten crooked or misaligned teeth with nearly invisible clear aligners. This modern alternative to traditional braces uses custom-fitted trays to gradually move your teeth into the proper position. Invisalign clear aligners are removable, comfortable, and allow you to maintain normal eating and oral hygiene habits throughout treatment.
Porcelain Veneers
Porcelain veneers are ultra-thin shells that cover the front surface of your teeth, instantly correcting chips, cracks, gaps, discoloration, and minor misalignment. Veneers provide long-lasting results and create a Hollywood-worthy smile that looks completely natural.
Dental Bonding
Cosmetic bonding uses tooth-colored resin to repair minor imperfections like chips, cracks, or small gaps between teeth. This conservative treatment can be completed in a single visit and provides immediate improvement to your smile’s appearance.
Dental Crowns and Bridges
When teeth are severely damaged or missing, dental crowns and bridges restore both function and beauty. Modern ceramic crowns are virtually indistinguishable from natural teeth, while bridges seamlessly replace missing teeth to complete your smile. These restorations are crafted to match your existing teeth perfectly in color, shape, and size.
Smile Makeovers
For patients seeking comprehensive transformation, we offer complete smile makeovers that combine multiple treatments. A smile makeover may include whitening, veneers, crowns, and orthodontic treatment to address all aspects of your smile simultaneously. This coordinated approach ensures harmonious results that look natural and beautiful.
Cosmetic Dentistry Can Rebuild Your Smile
At the office of Sonrisa Family Dental, we use leading-edge technology, proven methods of care, and the latest generations of dental materials to give patients the smiles they’ve always wanted!
We can also help patients with missing teeth to reestablish a complete and beautiful smile with options that range from dental bridges or dentures to dental implants. Whether an individual tooth or multiple teeth are missing, our practice offers the most advanced dental implant-based solutions to help patients create an attractive smile that looks, feels, and functions like a natural one.
Advanced Technology and Techniques
We use the latest cosmetic dentistry technology to ensure precise, comfortable treatments and predictable results. Digital imaging allows you to preview your new smile before treatment begins, so you’ll know exactly what to expect from your transformation.
Our advanced techniques include digital smile design, which uses computer technology to map out your ideal smile before any treatment begins. This ensures optimal results and allows you to participate actively in designing your new smile. We also utilize high-quality materials that provide durability and natural aesthetics.
Benefits of Cosmetic Dentistry
Investing in cosmetic dentistry offers numerous advantages that extend far beyond improved appearance. The benefits of enhancing your smile include both immediate and long-term positive impacts on your life.
- Increased self-confidence: A beautiful smile boosts your confidence in social and professional situations, helping you make positive first impressions
- Enhanced career opportunities: Studies show that people with attractive smiles are perceived as more successful and trustworthy in business settings
- Improved oral health: Many cosmetic treatments also strengthen teeth and improve overall dental health while enhancing appearance
- Long-lasting results: Modern cosmetic dentistry provides durable solutions that can last many years with proper care and maintenance
- Better social interactions: When you feel good about your smile, you’re more likely to smile often, leading to improved relationships and social connections
- Youthful appearance: A bright, straight smile can take years off your appearance and help you look more vibrant and energetic
These life-changing benefits make cosmetic dentistry an investment in your overall well-being and future success.
Maintaining Your Beautiful Results
A stunning cosmetic smile requires proper care and maintenance. We’ll provide detailed instructions for caring for your new smile and recommend appropriate products to help preserve your investment. Regular dental cleanings and checkups are essential for maintaining both the health and beauty of your teeth.
Most cosmetic dental treatments are surprisingly durable when properly maintained. Veneers can last 10-15 years, professional whitening results typically last 1-3 years, and clear aligner results are permanent with proper retainer use.
Beyond daily care, regular professional cleanings help preserve your investment by removing plaque and tartar that can compromise both health and appearance. We also recommend avoiding habits that can damage cosmetic work, such as chewing ice, using teeth as tools, or grinding your teeth at night. For patients who grind their teeth, we can provide custom night guards to protect cosmetic restorations through the night.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is cosmetic dentistry?
Cosmetic dentistry offers solutions to improve the look of teeth that are stained, discolored, chipped, worn down, misshapen, a little gapped, or misaligned. It combines the art and science of dentistry to transform a less-than-perfect smile into one that looks naturally beautiful while at the same time enhancing overall facial aesthetics.
What’s the quickest way to improve the look of my smile?
The great thing about cosmetic dentistry is that it offers multiple solutions to quickly improve the look of one’s smile. It all depends on your specific dental needs and cosmetic smile goals. While procedures such as teeth-whitening, tooth-colored fillings, and dental bonding typically provide dramatic improvements in just a single visit, others such as dental veneers only take a couple of visits.
What’s the best way to improve the look of dull, drab, or discolored teeth?
A teeth whitening procedure as provided by our office is often the simplest, quickest, and most effective way to significantly lighten and brighten your smile.
How can dental veneers improve the look of my smile?
Porcelain veneers are capable of concealing a range of imperfections, dramatically improving the look of teeth that are misshapen, have minor chips, enamel defects, or stains. They also provide an excellent solution for closing small gaps as well as addressing other minor alignment issues. While teeth whitening procedures can effectively treat many cases of dental stains or discolorations to produce cosmetically pleasing results, darker stains, as well as specific issues involving the size, shape, and alignment of the teeth, are better addressed with porcelain veneers.
What type of cosmetic restoration is possible for a back tooth?
How a back tooth is repaired and restored depends on the extent of the cavity or damage it has sustained. In many cases, a tooth-colored filling is often sufficient to restore the form and function of a back tooth. However, when a significant amount of tooth structure is damaged, or the tooth has had a root canal, it’s often necessary to fabricate a full coverage crown. In this way, the remaining tooth structure is protected from further damage while full function and a natural- looking smile is restored.
Does a tooth that is chipped require a crown?
Whether or not a chipped or fractured tooth requires a dental crown depends on the extent of the damage. Some minor chips can be addressed with a dental bonding procedure or a veneer. When a significant amount of tooth structure is lost, rebuilding the form and function of the involved tooth may require a full coverage crown.
What’s the most cosmetic solution for replacing missing teeth?
While conventional dental bridges and dentures offer effective and satisfying ways to rebuild a complete and attractive smile, dental implants represent the most advanced solutions for replacing missing teeth. With dental implants, our office can replace a single tooth or multiple ones to give you a smile that feels, looks, and functions like a natural one. Dental implants behave in much the same way as the root of an actual tooth, providing stable, secure, and long-lasting results of care.
How long does a tooth whitening last?
How long your teeth whitening lasts depends on your lifestyle. Eating, drinking, and smoking habits can have a big impact on maintaining your result. Our office will inform you which food, beverages, or habits can stain your newly whitened smile. As needed, we’ll also help you maintain a white and vibrant smile with a periodic, safe, and effective touch-up whitening procedure.
How much do cosmetic dental procedures cost?
At the office of Sonrisa Family Dental, we want every patient to enjoy the benefits of a beautiful and healthy smile. We strive to make dental care affordable and accessible. Improving the look of your smile is a worthwhile investment, and we always try to optimize any dental insurance benefits to cover your work. However, it’s essential to keep in mind that cosmetic dental procedures may not be covered by your plan. You can count on our office to explain every cosmetic option available to address your needs and the fees involved. To help you begin care without any additional stress or day, we can discuss different payment options and financing plans.
Why choose the office of Sonrisa Family Dental?

At the office of Sonrisa Family Dental, we successfully combine the art and science of dentistry to create smiles that are as beautiful as they are healthy.
