Our cosmetic dentistry services include the following options.
Veneers
Veneers are small, thin coverings that can be bonded to the outer surfaces of teeth to immediately improve their appearance. They’re considered one of the most versatile of all cosmetic treatments since they can tackle a very wide range of issues, including chips and cracks, stubborn areas of discoloration, or oddly misshapen teeth. They can even give your teeth a straighter and more uniform appearance!
Metal-Free Restorations
In the past, dental restorations were constructed using various materials, but most often a combination of metal alloys referred to as “metal amalgam” was used. While durable, this material is far from the naturally white shade of your teeth, meaning that these restorations stick out like a sore thumb! We’re proud to offer a new standard of care here in our office: entirely metal-free restorations (made using zirconia, porcelain, or resin). These restorations don’t sacrifice anything in terms of quality; they’re durable, less resistant to temperatures, and certain to give your smile a boost in beauty.
Cosmetic Dental Bonding
Sometimes simply called “dental bonding,” this treatment involves using a small amount of composite resin to mask certain types of flaws and imperfections in select teeth. This resin can be shaded to perfectly match the rest of your teeth, and it can easily be touched up in the future if necessary. It’s another incredibly flexible treatment and can address issues like chips and cracks, staining, and other small imperfections.
Invisalign Clear Aligners
Invisalign has taken the world of dentistry by storm over the last few decades, and these days more and more patients are turning to these clear aligners to address all kinds of orthodontic issues, including misalignment, overbites, underbites, and more. Invisalign offers a more convenient solution than traditional braces, often with increased patient comfort, quicker timelines, and just-as-beautiful results. And of course, the lack of dietary restrictions and subtleness of the aligners are the main draws!
Teeth Whitening
If your smile has seemed a little duller than usual lately, or if you’ve been suffering from dental discoloration for quite some time, you’re probably an excellent candidate for teeth whitening services here at our Ponte Vedra Beach dental office. We proudly offer two different types of teeth whitening: in-office treatment and take-home kits. Each method can capably whiten your teeth by several shades, so assuming you’re in decent oral health, you can choose which type you prefer based on your preferences.

Gum Recontouring/Crown Lengthening
Some patients have what’s known as a “gummy smile,” which means they have excess gum tissue covering up the crowns of their teeth. At first glance, this might seem like a purely aesthetic issue; however, it can also heighten the risk of certain oral health issues like tooth decay and gum disease. Gum recontouring, sometimes called crown lengthening, can be used to remove excess gum tissue and make your gumline more uniform and symmetrical, ensuring your beautiful pearly whites are on full display!
Smile Makeovers
If you’re unhappy with your smile due to multiple aesthetic issues and believe that cosmetic treatment isn’t an option, think again – you might benefit from a smile makeover! This process involves evaluating your goals and coming up with a streamlined, personalized treatment plan to help you achieve them. It generally incorporates multiple cosmetic and restorative services, and our practice utilizes virtual smile design to let you see your results before you commit to treatment.
Understanding the Cost of Cosmetic Dentistry
One of the first things others notice when meeting you is the quality of your smile, and flaws in your teeth might not make a positive impression. But if you’re concerned about the cost of cosmetic dentistry, you might hesitate to schedule a consultation to address your unique aesthetic concerns and goals.

Which Cosmetic Dental Service Is Right for Me?
Many people want to enhance the appearance of their teeth and gums, but are unsure where or how to get started. The first step is to schedule an appointment with one of our providers so we can examine your mouth and discuss the issues. Then, we can provide an appropriate treatment plan, which might include one or more of the following options:
- These ceramic shells are customized to match your enamel then are cemented to the fronts of your teeth to mask chips, cracks, stains, and mild misalignments, and usually range between $500 and $2,500 per tooth.
- Metal-Free Restorations. We can replace outdated amalgam dental crowns with resilient, tooth-colored restorations, which often cost about $800 to $2,000 per tooth.
- Cosmetic Dental Bonding. This addresses many similar issues as veneers but is a less invasive, more cost-effective method that typically is priced between $100 and $600 per tooth.
- Invisalign Clear Aligners. The series of transparent plastic trays fits over arches to reposition your grin, usually for $3,000 to $8,000 for the entire treatment.
- Teeth Whitening. Our team offers in-office procedures as well as professional-grade take-home kits, often for several hundred dollars.
- Smile Makeovers. We can provide as many cosmetic or restorative services as needed to improve the look and function of more severely damaged smiles, and can provide a more detailed estimate once your treatment plan has been approved.
Is Cosmetic Dentistry Worth the Investment?
Some patients worry they’re spending money frivolously when they invest in dental procedures intended to enhance their appearance more than their oral health. But there are benefits to upgrading your grin that you might not have considered.
For instance, did you know that studies have revealed that having dental problems is negatively associated with the probability of being employed? People might judge your character by the condition of your smile, and addressing cosmetic concerns can boost your confidence and leave a lasting positive impression.
This, in turn, can contribute to better educational and professional accomplishments, a busier social calendar, and deeper, more rewarding relationships that can improve your daily quality of life.
