Porcelain Veneers

If your smile has an overwhelming number of flaws, including discoloration, gaps, slight misalignment, or others, you don’t have to worry! You may not have to endure multiple complex procedures to get a red carpet-worthy smile. Porcelain veneers are crafted to look just like natural tooth enamel and can be applied to cover imperfect teeth. In as few as just two appointments, we can completely transform your smile, which can last for decades at a time.

Metal-Free Dental Restorations

When you require repairs for your damaged teeth, you probably want the restorations to blend seamlessly with the rest of your teeth. Well, at Archway Dental, we offer metal-free options to do just that. They are made of high-quality porcelain and composite resin, meaning that you’re sure to enjoy your restorations for a long time. We’ll closely match your restoration, so no one will be able to tell that you ever had a problem there to begin with.

Cosmetic Dental Bonding

As a more affordable, faster alternative to porcelain veneers, we offer cosmetic bonding to address gapped, chipped or cracked, discolored, and slightly misaligned teeth. Using the same material as tooth-colored fillings, Dr. Parmar can perform this treatment in as little as one appointment and can do this without having to remove any enamel. Deciding between porcelain veneers and cosmetic bonding can be tricky, which is another reason why you need to schedule a consultation with us. We’ll help you determine which treatment is best suited for you.

Teeth Whitening

As you age, have unhealthy oral habits like grinding your teeth, and eat and drink highly pigmented foods and drinks, the shade of your teeth can begin to fade and appear less attractive. We offer a simple treatment that can revitalize your smile’s brilliance. Unlike whitening solutions that you can buy at the store, our Zoom! Whitening option uses a powerful agent that ends with truly amazing results up to eight shades brighter!

Invisalign

Crooked teeth can have a serious impact on how you feel about your smile, but it can also make daily oral care more challenging. Cavities and gum disease become more likely because of the nooks and crannies created by misaligned teeth. By treating this problem with Invisalign clear braces, we can give your mouth a healthier and more beautiful setup without changing your appearance with metal brackets and wires.

Cosmetic Dentistry FAQs

Not sure if cosmetic dentistry is right for you? It’s natural to have a few questions or doubts. That’s why we have collected some of the most common questions we hear from patients about cosmetic treatment and answered them below. To learn even more about how procedures like veneers, bonding, Invisalign, and more can transform your smile, schedule a consultation with Dr. Deval Parmar, a trusted cosmetic dentist in Frisco.

Is Cosmetic Dentistry Safe?

Yes. When performed by a trained dental professional, cosmetic treatments are perfectly safe for most patients. Of course, not every treatment is right for every patient. That’s why Dr. Parmar will carefully examine your mouth and discuss your personal smile goals before giving an honest assessment of which procedures may be right for you. If your teeth are decayed, they will likely need to be treated first to avoid problems in the future. For example, placing a veneer over a decayed tooth might make the decay more difficult to treat later on. When it comes to professional teeth whitening, dentists only use ingredients that are clinically proven to be safe. Over-the-counter teeth whitening products, on the other hand, are often made from cheap ingredients that could potentially damage tooth enamel and/or irritate gum tissue.

How Long Does Cosmetic Dentistry Last?

The lifespan of your rejuvenated smile will depend in large part on which specific treatments you’ve completed. Quick and easy treatments, such as teeth whitening and direct bonding, tend to not last as long as more extensive treatments like veneers. Meanwhile, gum recontouring almost always produces permanent results since gum tissue doesn’t grow back. If you straighten your teeth with Invisalign, your results can also potentially last a lifetime as long as you wear your retainer afterward. You can ensure your cosmetic dentistry results last as long as possible by taking great care of your oral health. This includes diligently brushing and flossing, regular dental checkups, not using your teeth as tools, and limiting foods and drinks that could stain your enamel.

How Do I Know If I Need Cosmetic Dentistry?

Look in the mirror. Are you 100% happy with the smile you see? If the answer is “no”, then you could most likely benefit from cosmetic dentistry. At Archway Dental, we offer a wide variety of cosmetic procedures to address many different dental imperfections. From concealing cracked or chipped teeth with veneers to dramatically whitening a dull, stained smile, you’re in good hands with Dr. Parmar, an experienced cosmetic dentist in Frisco. Of course, the only way to definitively know whether you could benefit from cosmetic dentistry is to attend an initial consultation at our office so Dr. Parmar can examine your teeth.

Is Cosmetic Dentistry Covered by Insurance?

Most dental insurance plans consider cosmetic treatments to be elective and thus do not cover them. However, there may be exceptions if the treatment you choose also provides oral health benefits. For example, a crown or veneer might receive partial coverage if it builds up or protects a damaged tooth. In addition, Invisalign treatment might be covered to some extent if your plan includes orthodontic coverage. In these cases, your insurance will likely cover anywhere from 50% to 80% of treatment costs. If this all sounds complicated, don’t worry! Our experienced team can help you understand your specific insurance plan, file your paperwork, and maximize your benefits.

Is Cosmetic Dentistry Expensive?

Cosmetic dentistry is associated with a hefty price tag, but it's affordable for people from all walks of life. You don't have to be a movie star or celebrity to afford elective dental work because there are more treatment options than ever before. There's a solution to fit your budget, and we offer various financial solutions to keep a picture-perfect smile affordable. Besides using your dental insurance for medically necessary treatments, we also accept third-party financing. You can pay for your new smile using an affordable payment plan.

Does Cosmetic Dentistry Hurt?

Your comfort is our top priority. Depending on your treatment plan, your cosmetic dentist may use a local numbing agent to block any pain. At most, you may feel some unusual sensations or pressure, but you will not experience any outright pain. You may have some slight tenderness for a few days after the effects of any medications wear off. You can manage it with an over-the-counter pain reliever and eating soft foods.

Which Cosmetic Procedures Are Right for Me?

No two mouths or situations are identical, so there's no cookie-cutter solution to create a stunning smile. Your cosmetic dentist will examine your mouth and learn more about your goals to determine which procedures may be right for you, like:

  • Porcelain Veneers: Bonding veneers to the front sides of your teeth that are visible when smiling can resolve many imperfections at once. The minimally invasive procedure provides quick results when used to treat stains, chips, and gaps.
  • Metal-Free Restorations: All-ceramic materials are used to create dental crowns and bridges. You'll enjoy natural-looking results that can last for a decade or more. Your restorations will blend in seamlessly with your real teeth.
  • Cosmetic Dental Bonding: A composite resin can fix minor imperfections quickly using an affordable option. The resin is shaded to the color of your enamel to look like part of the tooth structure.
  • Teeth Whitening: You can treat age-related and surface stains with professional teeth whitening. Your pearly whites can get up to 8 shades whiter with results that can last for several months or years with the right aftercare routine.
  • Invisalign: You can fix your bite and alignment issues without the appearance of brackets and wires. Clear aligners are worn over your teeth to move them into their correct positions to create a healthy, beautiful smile.

Can Teens Benefit from Cosmetic Dentistry?

Every case is unique, but many cosmetic treatments are suitable for children and teens, like Invisalign, dental bonding, or all-ceramic crowns. Their cosmetic dentist will examine their mouth to determine if they are a candidate for elective services. They'll create the safe, personalized plan they need for a confident smile.
