What is cosmetic dentistry, and how can it improve your smile?

Cosmetic dentistry focuses on procedures that improve the look of your teeth, gums, and overall smile. Unlike general dentistry, which treats oral health issues, cosmetic dentistry aims to enhance aesthetics. Whether you want whiter teeth, smoother surfaces, or better alignment, treatments are tailored to unique smile goals. This personalized approach helps create a balanced, natural look rather than an artificial one.

What are common cosmetic dentistry treatments?

everal popular options for smile rejuvenation exist at Washington Center for Dentistry. These include:

• Professional, same-day teeth whitening for a brighter, more radiant smile
• Porcelain veneers that cover imperfections while mimicking natural enamel
• Invisalign® clear aligners to straighten teeth discreetly
• Dental bonding to repair chips or gaps with tooth-colored natural-mimicking resin
• Gum reshaping to improve the shape and symmetry of your gums

You can combine or customize each treatment based on your goals and lifestyle. Many advanced cosmetic procedures also exist to improve your smile. The key is to understand our clients’ desired outcome and use technology, science, skills and artistry to craft a natural smile that fits the individual face and lip proportions.

How does cosmetic dentistry help you achieve a brighter, straighter smile?

Many patients seek cosmetic dentistry to fix discoloration or crooked teeth that impact their confidence. Whitening treatments remove stains from coffee, tobacco, or aging, revealing a fresh, brighter smile. For teeth that are misaligned, Invisalign treatment offers an invisible alternative to traditional braces, gradually shifting your teeth while remaining comfortable and convenient. These treatments together create a rejuvenated smile that looks healthy and natural without overdone or fake results.

What should you expect during a cosmetic dentistry consultation?

Our smile designing doctors take the time to understand your smile and aesthetic goals during your consultation at Washington Center for Dentistry. Using advanced imaging and personalized planning, we recommend treatments that fit your needs and ensure you feel informed every step of the way.

The goal is to create a smile design that we can demonstrate through a prototype and show you the outcome before actually starting treatment. We call this the “smile test drive”. This allows us and you the opportunity to make sure that the outcome will be predictable and what you desire.
