Porcelain Veneers
Do you ever look at your teeth and wish they were straighter, brighter, and more symmetrical? If so, ask us about veneers. When bonded onto the front-facing surface of your teeth, these thin shells of dental porcelain conceal a wide range of imperfections, including minor chips and permanent stains. Plus, the entire treatment process can usually be completed in just two visits, and the results can last for well over a decade with proper care!

Invisalign Clear Braces
For years, correcting overcrowding, open bites, and other common orthodontic problems meant wearing metal brackets and wires. Now, there is another option: Invisalign. To date, more than 17 million patients have achieved straighter, healthier smiles with clear aligners. Not only are they considerably more discreet, but they don’t come with the same rules and restrictions. For example, you don’t need to abide by any dietary restrictions or adopt a cumbersome dental care regimen!
ClearCorrect Aligners
ClearCorrect is another popular orthodontic treatment that can deliver fantastic results without the metal. If you are interested in finding out if you’re a candidate, then schedule a consultation with our cosmetic dentist in Arlington! That way, she can review your dental history, assess the severity of your case, and determine if this is the best option for you. If it is, then we will get to work creating your custom treatment plan!
Smile Makeovers
Maybe achieving the results you desire can’t be done with just one treatment. If that’s the case, then we will use a combination of the smile-enhancing services we offer to create your dream smile! The first step is scheduling a consultation with us so we can get an in-depth understanding of your aesthetic goals. Then, we can share our recommendations, create a custom treatment plan, and get to work transforming your smile.
Cost of Cosmetic Dentistry
Most dental insurance policies don’t cover the cost of services that are intended to improve your appearance more than your oral health. That means you’ll be personally invested in upgrading your grin, and, for that reason, many patients want to know the anticipated rates to decide if they can afford their elected procedures.
Our Artistry Smile Center team offers several options at varying price points, so it’s easy to find options within your budget. Continue reading to learn more about factors that can influence your final invoice, and feel free to contact us with additional questions.
Which Cosmetic Dental Service is Right for Me?
Whether you’re frustrated by stubborn stains, chips, cracks, or gapped or overcrowded teeth, we have treatments that can address the issue to improve your appearance and oral health. However, you must consult with one of our providers to determine solutions that work for you, based on your current dental condition and smile goals. Some popular cosmetic procedures include:
- Teeth Whitening. You can potentially brighten your grin by up to 8 shades with a single in-office visit, which can range from $400 to $800+, or opt for a customized take-home kit, usually available for a few hundred dollars.
- Cosmetic Bonding. This treatment can mend or mask flaws like cracks, chips, and discoloration, often for about $100 to $500 per tooth.
- Porcelain Veneers. These thin ceramic shells may be more costly than other treatments, but they can also cover several imperfections simultaneously. Plus, they can last 15+ years with the right care, making them an excellent long-term investment.
- Clear Aligners. Options like Invisalign and ClearCorrect utilize transparent plastic trays that fit snuggly over your teeth to straighten them gently. Depending on the severity of your condition and the length of treatment, you might expect to spend anywhere from $2,000 to $9,000.
- Smile Makeovers. We’re happy to discuss a plan that includes one or several cosmetic or restorative methods to achieve your personal smile goals. The rates depend on the services rendered.
Is Cosmetic Dentistry an Investment Worth Making?
If you’re on a tight budget, it’s natural to consider the anticipated pricing when deciding whether to undergo elected procedures that boost your appearance. However, there are advantages to cosmetic dentistry that you may not have considered.
For instance, did you know that people with dental problems are less likely to be employed or successful at work? One of the first things people notice about you is the quality of your smile, and making a good impression can lead to better professional opportunities, deeper relationships, and a more involved social calendar.
Do Cosmetic Dentists Offer Payment Plans?
We understand that you may be anxious about paying for your services, but we don’t want your budget to keep you from having the beautiful grin you’ve always dreamed of. That’s why we’ve partnered with third-party financers, like CareCredit and CitiHealthCard, to allow flexible payment plans. If your application is approved, these programs allow you to break up your total payment into more manageable installments to set your mind at ease.

Cosmetic Dentistry FAQs
Is Cosmetic Dentistry Expensive?
Many people associate cosmetic dentistry with expensive treatment, but this isn’t always the case. This is likely due to the fact that cosmetic dentistry is rarely covered by dental insurance because most services in this category are considered elective. Improving your smile may seem costly at first, but it’s important to consider the investment you are putting into your self-esteem, confidence, and quality of life!
Is Cosmetic Dentistry Safe?
If you are under the care of a trained professional, most cosmetic dentistry treatments are perfectly safe for most patients. However, it’s important to remember that not every treatment is right for everyone, so your dentist will give you an honest assessment of which services may or may not be right for you. Some cosmetic treatments could pose a risk if there is an existing dental issue that isn’t treated ahead of time. For instance, whitening a tooth that has a cavity can make it worse. That’s why your dentist plans to address issues like these before moving forward with cosmetic procedures.
Does Cosmetic Dentistry Hurt?
Many patients are hesitant to commit to treatments of all kinds because they are worried about the procedure being painful. We know this, so it is always our goal to make your treatment as comfortable as possible. Most cosmetic treatments, like teeth whitening and cosmetic bonding, are non-invasive, so they don’t even require a local anesthetic. If you are getting veneers, we will numb the area ahead of time so that you won’t feel any pain. You may experience some soreness and sensitivity for a few days afterward, but this should be mild and temporary.
