What Is Cosmetic Dentistry?
If you have seen celebrities on red carpets or people on television transforming their smiles, they likely received cosmetic dental treatments. This branch of dentistry focuses on improving the appearance of the teeth and gums. With the skilled services at Floss & Co., you have access to the following treatments to achieve your dream smile:
Teeth Whitening
Staining and discoloration can be challenging to eliminate, but with our professional teeth whitening services, you see drastic results in just one visit. Our close-mouthed system helps reduce sensitivity while our whitening solution effectively breaks up stains. We also offer customized, at-home kits that show results in a few weeks.
Veneers
Veneers are custom-made shells that fit over the front surface of the teeth to conceal cracks, chips, discoloration, gaps, and misshapen teeth. Depending on your unique goals, budget, and personal preferences, you may get porcelain or resin veneers. Rest assured, we strive to be as conservative as possible when it comes to your dental work, including the preservation of as much healthy tooth structure as possible. Resin veneers require less enamel removal than porcelain and have a lower price point, while porcelain veneers tend to last longer and are more stain-resistant.
Dental Bonding
If you have small cracks or chips, staining, or a gummy smile, you may get dental bonding to change the shape, size, and color of your teeth. This treatment uses tooth-colored composite resin to make the teeth more uniform and even. Dental bonding typically needs replacing in five to seven years and requires no enamel removal, making it completely reversible.
Fillings
While you may associate fillings with cavities, they can also fill in small chips for a more even appearance. This treatment uses composite resin to fill in the chipped area, which is cured using a special light for a durable, natural-looking result.
Smile Makeovers
If you are looking for a major transformation, you may consider a smile makeover, which combines multiple cosmetic dental treatments for a personalized solution. Our dedicated team at Floss & Co. takes the time to understand your needs, examine your oral health, and determine the best treatments for you.
What Dental Issues Can Cosmetic Dentistry Correct?
Restorative and preventative treatments focus on improving the health and function of your teeth and gums while also helping restore your smile’s appearance in some cases. In contrast, cosmetic dentistry focuses on beautifying the smile with treatments that correct the following dental concerns:
- Chipped or cracked teeth
- Discoloration or staining
- Gaps in the smile
- Misaligned teeth
- Misshapen teeth
If you have one or more of these issues with your smile, our trusted team at Floss & Co. is here to help you find a cosmetic dental treatment that will give you a balanced, confident smile. We prioritize your comfort, safety, and health every step of the way while communicating about your treatment clearly and openly, giving you the information you need to make the best decision for your oral health.

Affordable Cosmetic Dentistry Options
Our professional teeth whitening services are competitively priced between $250 and $450, depending on the method used.

These manageable payments are calculated using our CareCredit calculator, allowing you to achieve a brighter smile without financial stress.
To help you maintain your oral health while undergoing cosmetic treatments, we offer in-office care plans that lower costs and include essential preventive services. These plans cover fluoride treatments, X-rays, professional cleanings, exams, and emergency appointments, ensuring your smile stays healthy alongside cosmetic enhancements. Because most cosmetic procedures are considered elective and may not be covered by insurance, our in-office savings program provides an additional 20% off most services, making professional teeth whitening and other cosmetic treatments more accessible. By investing in both preventive and cosmetic care, you can achieve the best long-term results while keeping costs manageable.

Cosmetic Dentistry FAQs
How long do cosmetic dental procedures typically take to complete?
The length of cosmetic dental procedures varies depending on the treatment. For instance, simple teeth whitening typically takes about an hour, while more complex procedures like veneers, crowns, or smile makeovers may require multiple visits. Your dentist will provide an estimated timeline based on the specific treatment plan developed for you. Factors such as healing time and personalization of the procedures can also influence the overall duration.
Will my dental insurance cover cosmetic dental procedures?
Dental insurance often does not cover cosmetic procedures unless they are deemed medically necessary, such as in the case of reconstructive work after an injury. It’s important to contact your insurance provider to confirm the details of your plan. While cosmetic procedures may not be covered, some insurance plans might partially cover certain treatments like crowns or bridges if they also restore function, not just aesthetics.
How do I maintain my results after cosmetic dental treatments?
Maintaining your results after cosmetic dental treatments requires diligent oral care and regular check-ups. For example, after whitening, avoiding foods and drinks that stain teeth, like coffee or wine, can help keep your smile bright. Additionally, keeping up with brushing and flossing, along with regular dentist visits, ensures your treatment lasts longer and stays in top condition.
How do I know which cosmetic dental procedure is right for me?
Many dental offices offer financing options to help make cosmetic dental treatments more affordable. These options often include payment plans through in-house programs or third-party lenders. Your dentist can provide information on available plans and help you find one that fits your budget, ensuring you can proceed with your desired treatment without financial stress.
Are there financing options available for cosmetic dentistry services?
The best way to determine which cosmetic procedure is right for you is through a thorough consultation with your dentist. They will assess your oral health, aesthetic goals, and personal preferences. Based on this information, they will recommend the most suitable procedures, such as veneers, whitening, or bonding, to help you achieve the smile you desire.
