Cosmetic Dentistry Services in New Lenox

There are many reasons why you should consider cosmetic dental care if you want to look younger. Face it, just about everyone would like to look younger. As we get older, our teeth become yellow, we chip one or two on hard foods, and occasionally lose one to a dental disease. Tooth wear also ages you. It's hard to avoid since years of chewing wear down teeth making them appear shorter, especially your front teeth. You'll show less teeth when you smile, but there are easy cosmetic fixes for this problem. Missing teeth also age you. Many people will have lost at least one tooth by older age and even though people may not see a toothless gap in your mouth, the missing tooth will age you. You'll start losing jawbone structure and may even develop a saggy, wrinkled look depending on how many teeth you are missing. If you feel uncomfortable with your teeth, let us restore your natural, vibrant smile. Your smile age shouldn't make you look older than your chronological age.

What Are Cosmetic Dental Treatments?

Cosmetic dentistry refers to dental treatments and procedures which restore your teeth's appearance and in some cases, their functionality as well. While traditional dentistry focuses on preserving and restoring your oral health, a cosmetic dentist will add an artistic touch to restorations meant to repair broken, chipped or missing teeth. If you have a gap in your smile from a missing tooth, you’ll want your new tooth to seamlessly blend in with your existing teeth so it looks like you were born with a naturally beautiful smile. This is why people who have a family dentist they are happy with seek out a cosmetic dentist when they need cosmetic dental care if it’s not provided by their general dentist.

What Are the Most Popular Cosmetic Dentistry Procedures?

There are many cosmetic procedures which can help give you a captivating smile. Teeth whitening is the most popular cosmetic procedure as it's affordable, painless and shows dramatic results in about an hour. We can also combine several of these services as part of a custom smile makeover plan. Whichever you choose, you’ll first come into our office for a consultation and to discuss your options with your dentist. Cosmetic dentistry services we offer include: 

• Porcelain Veneers
• Teeth Whitening

Will Dental Insurance Pay My Cosmetic Dentistry Cost?

Very few dental insurance policies cover purely cosmetic procedures because cosmetic procedures tend to be elective. If a procedure also restores your ability to chew, such as a crown which repairs a broken tooth and the appearance of that tooth, you may have partial coverage. Please review your policy carefully or speak to your plan administrator at your job for coverage details. If you book a consultation, your dentist can go over your payment options with you.
