Your smile is one of the first things people notice about you. If you’re hiding it because of crooked teeth, gaps, chips, or discoloration, cosmetic dentistry can help you feel confident again.
At Dentistry on 43, we provide comprehensive cosmetic dental services all in the heart of the Peace Country. From subtle enhancements to complete smile transformations, we use advanced techniques and state-of-the-art equipment to create natural-looking results that boost your confidence.
Cosmetic dentistry focuses on improving the appearance of your teeth, gums, and smile. While many cosmetic treatments also restore function, the primary goal is aesthetic improvement—helping you achieve the smile you’ve always wanted.
Modern cosmetic dentistry offers solutions for virtually any smile concern:
The best part? Many cosmetic treatments are more accessible and less invasive than you might think.
Straighten your teeth without metal braces. Invisalign uses clear, removable aligners to gradually shift your teeth into their ideal position. We handle your entire Invisalign journey right here—no orthodontist referrals needed.
Treatment typically takes 6-18 months, and the clear aligners are virtually invisible. You can remove them for eating and special occasions, making Invisalign perfect for busy adults and teens who want discreet orthodontic treatment.
Porcelain veneers are thin shells of ceramic that cover the front surface of your teeth, instantly transforming their color, shape, and alignment. They’re ideal for addressing multiple cosmetic concerns at once—discoloration, chips, gaps, and minor misalignment.
Veneers are custom-crafted to look completely natural and can last 10-15 years with proper care. They’re a popular choice for comprehensive smile makeovers that deliver dramatic yet natural-looking results.
For minor chips, cracks, or gaps, dental bonding offers a quick, affordable solution. We use tooth-colored composite resin to repair and reshape teeth in a single visit. Bonding is less invasive than veneers and provides immediate results at a fraction of the cost.
While not as durable as veneers, bonding typically lasts 3-7 years and is perfect for small cosmetic improvements.
A brighter smile can take years off your appearance and boost your confidence. We offer professional-grade teeth whitening products that you can use at home to safely and effectively brighten your smile.
Because whitening results vary based on individual factors like enamel thickness, existing dental work, and the cause of discoloration, we focus on education and providing quality products rather than in-office whitening treatments.
No two smiles are alike. During your consultation, we’ll discuss your goals, assess your current smile, and create a customized treatment plan that addresses your specific concerns and fits your budget.
The goal of cosmetic dentistry isn’t to create a “perfect” smile—it’s to create YOUR best smile. We focus on results that look natural, complement your facial features, and feel authentically you.
Many patients benefit from combining treatments. For example, Invisalign followed by veneers on front teeth, or bonding to refine results after orthodontic treatment. We coordinate all aspects of your care to ensure every treatment works together toward your goals.
Digital smile design, 3D imaging, and precise color-matching technology help us plan and execute treatments with exceptional accuracy. You’ll see previews of your potential results before we begin.
We’ll never push treatments you don’t need. If a simple solution addresses your concern, we’ll recommend that before suggesting more extensive work. Our goal is to help you achieve the smile you want in the most conservative, effective way possible.
Most people with good oral health are candidates for cosmetic dentistry. However, certain factors affect which treatments are appropriate:
Your smile transformation starts with a comprehensive consultation:
Cosmetic dentistry costs vary widely based on treatments chosen:
Because cosmetic dentistry is often elective, insurance coverage is limited. However, treatments that also restore function (like crowns or certain bonding procedures) may have partial coverage.
We offer financing through Lendcare to make your smile goals accessible with manageable monthly payments.
Real stories from patients who found a happier, healthier smile here at Dentistry on 43.
While the primary focus of cosmetic dentistry is improving your smile’s appearance, many treatments also provide functional benefits. For example, Invisalign straightens teeth for aesthetics but also improves bite alignment and makes cleaning easier. Veneers transform appearance while also protecting damaged teeth. Bonding fixes chips for cosmetic reasons but also prevents further damage. The best cosmetic dentistry enhances both form and function.
Longevity varies by treatment: Dental bonding lasts 3-7 years, veneers last 10-15 years, and Invisalign results can last a lifetime with proper retainer use. How well you care for your cosmetic work significantly impacts its lifespan. Good oral hygiene, regular dental visits, avoiding teeth-staining habits, and protecting teeth from damage (like wearing a nightguard if you grind) all help cosmetic treatments last longer. Most treatments can be refreshed or replaced when needed.
Absolutely! Modern cosmetic dentistry has come a long way from the obviously fake “chiclet” veneers of decades past. We use advanced materials that mimic natural tooth enamel’s translucency and color variation. Digital design and precise color-matching ensure results that complement your facial features and look authentically yours. The goal is for people to notice your beautiful smile, not your dental work. Most patients receive compliments on how great they look without anyone realizing they’ve had cosmetic dentistry.
Most dental insurance plans don’t cover purely cosmetic procedures because they’re considered elective. However, treatments that also restore function—like crowns, certain bonding procedures, or Invisalign when correcting bite issues—may have partial coverage. We’ll verify your specific benefits and provide detailed cost estimates before beginning treatment. We also offer financing through Lendcare to make cosmetic dentistry accessible, allowing you to invest in your smile with manageable monthly payments.
