At La Costa Dental Excellence in Carlsbad, our smile makeover patients believe that life-changing cosmetic dentistry is a valuable investment. Indeed, for most people, the value of a healthy, desirable smile cannot be measured in dollars. We recognize, however, that cosmetic dentistry is not cheap.
There are Affordable Cosmetic Dental Procedures
Do you have to spend thousands of dollars to improve your smile? Actually, no. Today’s post focuses on the most affordable cosmetic dental procedures.
Dental Bonding
In many cases, dental bonding can be used to fix a tooth that has been chipped. When our team repairs a tooth with dental bonding, a pliable resin material is applied to the tooth. They expertly mold the material to create the desired shape. The resin is then hardened using a special light. After hardening, we perform any required trimming and shaping followed by a final polishing.
Dental bonding is commonly less pricey than porcelain veneers or dental crowns. Call us to discuss cosmetic dental financing options.
Be Skeptical if the Price Seems Too Good to be True
Beware of brand-new San Marcos area practices that advertise very low prices for dental bonding, veneers, or dental implants. The skill and artistic ability necessary to achieve minuscule tolerances should not be undertaken by a beginner. Thoroughly research any new cosmetic dentist you are considering for any cosmetic dental procedures or a complete smile transformation.
Tooth Whitening
Most Carlsbad people are aware that there are several different tooth whitening procedures. Stephen and Kimberly Dankworth recommend scheduling a tooth whitening consultation to discuss your options. Even inexpensive OTC tooth bleaching systems can be misused and result in tooth sensitivity, damage to tooth enamel, and uneven coloration.
Regarding the cost of teeth whitening: if you decide on an at-home system from a drugstore, you may have to buy several packages to obtain even slight whitening. In-office whitening or a take-home system from our office may be more cost-effective in the long run.
