Is Cosmetic Dentistry Right for Me?
There are many reasons why you might choose to seek cosmetic dental treatment – you’re serving as a bridesmaid in your sister’s wedding, you’re preparing for a job interview, or you’re interested in treating yourself to a smile glow-up.
While there are many store-bought options that claim fast, eye-catching results, you’re likely to be unimpressed by your investment. However, by scheduling a consultation with Dr. Lamas, you will not only learn which services are available (and the best) for helping you reach your goals, but you’ll also discover whether you are a good candidate for cosmetic treatment.
Dr. Lamas will examine your mouth to identify any imperfections and possible oral health problems that require additional care. From there, he will develop a plan to improve the well-being of your smile as well as which cosmetic service will deliver a flawless appearance.
Veneers
If you want a versatile form of cosmetic dentistry treatment that addresses many of the most common imperfections (i.e., tooth cracks, stains, chips, gaps, misshapen teeth, etc.), you’ll want to ask about custom veneers. Crafted based on the specifications you and your dentist provide (size, shape, and color), they will fit snugly over the front surfaces of your teeth to not only conceal defects but also reveal a natural-looking, exquisite smile.
Metal-Free Restorations
If it is a tooth that needs repair, our team can deliver durable, long-lasting results with metal-free restorations. We can place a custom-made crown over the affected area so that you can enjoy a smile that looks natural and remains better protected against future infection and damage. The materials we use will ensure your restoration blends in with your surrounding teeth for a consistent, beautiful appearance.
Dental Bonding
Instead of filling a decayed tooth with composite resin, we can use the same material to hide small cracks, chips, stains, and gaps. Known as dental bonding, this cosmetic service is a fast and cost-effective option if you need help covering minor smile problems. Instead of a multi-visit approach, like veneers or metal-free restorations, the dental bonding process can be completed in a single appointment, and the results will last several years.
Teeth Whitening
In-office teeth whitening can produce a brighter smile in just one hour. Unlike over-the-counter whitening products that take weeks to reveal moderate results, Dr. Lamas and our team can offer a faster option – one that requires minimal time and delivers a longer-lasting, whiter set of teeth. We’ll determine the severity of your discoloration during an initial consultation and prepare a plan that targets these intrinsic, extrinsic, or age-related stains most effectively.

Smile Makeovers
Smile makeovers are extensive forms of cosmetic dental treatment that are typically only recommended for individuals who have many imperfections. In these cases, relying on one kind of service is often not enough to adequately address these problems, so a smile makeover is considered the best solution. Dr. Lamas will bring together different cosmetic and restorative treatments into a single plan and execute it so that a cohesive and natural-looking smile is the result.

Understanding the Cost of Cosmetic Dentistry
Do you have any questions pertaining to the cost of your smile makeover? If so, we have good news: we’re here to provide answers! While we can’t provide you with an estimate without learning about your unique dental history, needs, and goals, we can share some helpful information, starting with factors you need to consider when determining which cosmetic dentistry treatment is right for you.
Which Cosmetic Dental Service Is Right for Me?
The cost of cosmetic dentistry depends on a few factors, starting with which treatment (or combination of treatments) you choose. At our office, we offer:
- Dental Bonding – One of the most cost-effective treatments, dental bonding is great for fixing small imperfections, like a minor gap between the two front teeth.
- Teeth Whitening – Professional teeth whitening is usually mid-range in terms of cost, but it allows us to lighten your teeth by up to eight shades in a single visit.
- Metal-Free Restorations – Not only are they more aesthetically pleasing than metal alternatives, but the cost is often partially covered by dental insurance providers.
- Veneers – This usually comes with the highest upfront cost. However, they can conceal multiple imperfections and last for 10+ years, which makes them worth the investment.
Cosmetic Dentistry Can Be an Investment Worth Making
Whether you want to fix a small gap or address permanent stains, you might be second-guessing if cosmetic dentistry is worth the investment of your valuable time and money. The short answer is “yes!” After all, several studies have found that your smile is one of the first features others notice. As a result, having a gorgeous grin can have a positive impact on everything from your self-esteem to your professional success! Additionally, having a smile that you love can motivate you to brush, floss, and rinse with mouthwash consistently, which can benefit your oral health as well.
How to Make Cosmetic Dentistry Affordable
Although dental insurance providers don’t typically cover the cost of cosmetic dental treatments, there are a few exceptions. So, don’t hesitate to give us your membership information! Since we are in-network with PPO plans, we can help you maximize your available benefits and minimize your out-of-pocket expenses.
What if you don’t have dental insurance, or your provider won’t cover the cost of the service you’re interested in? If that’s the case, then we recommend exploring the other financial solutions that are available at our dental office in Plantation, like CareCredit! Thanks to their flexible payment plans, patients don’t have to pay for the entire cost of their treatment plan in one lump sum. Instead, they can break it up into smaller, more manageable chunks that work for their budget.
