What is Cosmetic Dentistry? Cosmetic Vs. Restorative Dentistry
Cosmetic dentistry, also referred to as aesthetic dentistry, is a specialty classification in the dental field that aims at revitalizing the appearance of healthy teeth and gums. Cosmetic dentistry comprises many different procedures, from simple whitening techniques to total smile makeovers.
Our dentist's end goal is to correct or conceal your dental insecurities and build a smile that you're happy to show off. Some cosmetic dentistry procedures, such as dental implants, can improve your oral health and the aesthetics of your smile. Still, patients should start cosmetic procedures with good oral health.
After improving your oral health with regular dental visits, dental cleanings, and periodontal procedures, our Adel dental office can enhance the look of your smile with cosmetic dentistry.

The staff is Amazing and they know their stuff. I could go on and on. I could not imagine going anywhere else. I'll always be grateful for the treatment they provided me."

What Can Cosmetic Dentistry Treat?
Cosmetic dental procedures are designed to enhance the appearance of your smile. Our cosmetic dentist will first address any health issues with restorative procedures. Once your health is up to par, our dentist can correct the look of the following common flaws:
Teeth whitening for stains and discoloration is perhaps the most popular and cost-effective way to update your smile. If your teeth don't respond well to whitening treatments, you may benefit from porcelain veneers or Lumineers® to conceal dental discoloration.
Chipped, cracked, and otherwise injured or missing teeth can make chewing, speaking, and performing other daily tasks challenging. Dental implants can replace one or more missing teeth while dental crowns can restore and protect damaged and decayed teeth.
Whether your gums are receding or covering up too much of your teeth, we have cosmetic dentistry procedures, such as gum contouring and crown lengthening, to help move your gumline into an even position to complement your smile.
Orthodontics is traditionally used to correct misalignment concerns, but this can be a long and uncomfortable process. If you have minor misalignment, veneers, Lumineers, or other aesthetic dentistry treatments can conceal your cosmetic concerns.
Our Featured Cosmetic Dentistry Treatments
Our dentist can perform various cosmetic dentistry procedures to help you achieve the smile of your dreams. We can create a dental care plan for you during a consultation.
Dental Bonding
Dental bonding is a relatively simple procedure that can be performed in just one visit to our Adel, GA, dentistry office. Using a resin material often used for filling in cavities, our dentist can repair damaged teeth, conceal stains that don't respond to teeth whitening, and change the shape of your teeth. Dental bonding is not a permanent procedure but a less expensive alternative to veneers or cosmetic crowns.
Dental Implants
Missing teeth can cause jawbone recession and make it difficult for you to chew and speak. Dental implants are a permanent fix to replace missing tooth roots. The titanium implants can support an individual crown, a dental bridge, or a set of dentures to restore your smile's function and appearance.
Are You a Candidate for Cosmetic Dentistry?
Candidates for cosmetic dentistry should have good oral health before undergoing any aesthetic procedures with our dentist. Our primary focus is your oral health, so gum disease, tooth decay, and other oral health concerns should be addressed before you begin cosmetic treatments.
