Everyone deserves to have a beautiful smile, but it doesn’t happen naturally to many people. Whether from genetics, poor oral hygiene, or another issue, you don’t have to be rich or famous to revamp your pearly whites. Contrary to what you might have heard, cosmetic dentistry is affordable for people from all walks of life. Here are just a few options to enhance your smile that won’t cost you an arm or a leg.
Benefits of an Attractive Smile
You can’t put a price on the benefits of a pleasing smile. The appearance of your teeth can affect your self-esteem and first impressions. An attractive smile is attributed to youth, confidence, and success.
Investing in cosmetic dentistry will give your confidence a boost because you will look and feel your best. Improving your teeth can ensure your smile is sending the right message, which just might lead to new career opportunities.
Affordable Cosmetic Dental Treatments
There’s no cookie-cutter treatment plan to create a stunning smile because every mouth and situation differs. Here are some options that might be right for you:
Porcelain Veneers
If you have several issues you’d like to address, porcelain veneers can provide the results you want using one minimally invasive procedure. You’ll save time and money because you won’t need multiple treatments to fix stains, chips, and other flaws.
Metal-Free Restorations
Tooth-colored materials are used to create restorations that look natural. They are carefully crafted to match the color, size, and shape of your real teeth to blend in.
Dental Bonding
Dental bonding is a popular option because it is minimally invasive and effective. It’s more affordable than other procedures and can correct many minor imperfections, like chips, decay, or exposed tooth roots.
Teeth Whitening
Your teeth can get up to 8 shades whiter using a professional whitening treatment. You’ll enjoy lasting results with the right aftercare, like brushing and flossing.
Financial Options for Cosmetic Dentistry
You have many options to keep cosmetic dentistry within your budget, like:
- Dental Insurance: Your dental insurance may cover your consultation, imaging, or any preparatory procedures. Your benefits will only pay for medically necessary treatments. Many cosmetic procedures provide restorative benefits, like dental bonding and all-ceramic restorations.
- Monthly Payments: Based on your credit approval, you can pay any out-of-pocket expenses using a monthly payment plan. You can benefit from little or no interest in financing through a third-party company, like CareCredit.
- Promotions: Many dental offices offer specials for select services, like free consultations or second opinions.
You don’t have to spend your life’s savings to turn the smile of your dreams into reality. Your cosmetic dentist will create the personalized plan you need to reach your goals.
