Why Choose Diamond Hill Dental for Cosmetic Dentistry?

- Team of 3 highly trained & experienced dentists
Porcelain Veneers
Porcelain veneers are extremely thin ceramic shells that are designed to look like perfectly white enamel and fit over the front of the teeth, and with them, our team can easily get rid of multiple aesthetic imperfections at the same time. Whether you’re worried about stains, chips, cracks, gaps, or even slightly crooked teeth, porcelain veneers can give you a smile fit for the silver screen. Even better, they are always custom-designed, and it only takes two easy appointments to get them.
Metal Free Dental Restorations
Modern-day dental materials now give us the ability to repair teeth in a way that brings back their strength and beauty in equal measure. These particular restorations are made of 100% white dental porcelain, which can be shaped and shaded to perfectly match the appearance of real enamel, even down to its slight translucency. With it, we can create a crown or bridge so realistic looking, even you will have trouble telling it apart from your natural teeth!
Dental Bonding
If you’re just looking for a quick fix for a dark spot on one of your teeth, a small chip, or a thin gap, cosmetic bonding can make it go away in as little as an hour. Your dentist will apply a color-matched composite resin to your tooth and sculpt it to look like a regular part of the enamel, hiding any blemishes along the way. The treatment is not only fast, but painless as well, and you can look forward to the results lasting for up to 10 years.
Teeth Whitening
If you’re looking to get rid of annoying coffee, wine, or tobacco stains on your teeth, then Sinsational Smile can help you do accomplish this goal in as little as 20 minutes. We simply place a tray filled with a powerful bleaching solution over the teeth, and then we expose it to a special UV light to activate it. In minutes, it can break up the most stubborn stains and help make a patient’s teeth 6-8 shades whiter.
Invisalign®
Invisalign® is an orthodontic treatment designed with adults in mind. Instead of brackets and wires, it uses a series of clear plastic aligner trays to gently shift the teeth into their proper positions. They are so subtle in appearance that no one will notice you’re using Invisalign® unless you tell them, and you can simply take the trays out whenever it’s time to eat or brush. Better yet, Invisalign® is often able to straighten the teeth much faster than traditional orthodontics as well!
Understanding the Cost of Cosmetic Dentistry
If the cost of your smile makeover is a bit higher than expected, don’t worry – we can explain all of your treatment and financial options at your consultation to find a solution. Plus, it’s important to remember that investing in the appearance of your smile can positively impact your life in more ways than one!

Which Cosmetic Dental Service is Right for Me?
After learning all about what you’d like to change about your current smile as well as your aesthetic goals, our Cumberland cosmetic dentist will review the smile-enhancing solutions available to you. That includes:
- Veneers – Ideal for addressing multiple dental imperfections at once, veneers can fix minor misalignment, noticeable chips, permanent stains, and more. Of course, this does come with a higher upfront price, but the results can last for well over a decade with proper care!
- Dental Bonding – Dental bonding comes with numerous benefits, including the fact that it’s affordable, it can be completed in one appointment, and it’s painless. The only “downside” is that the results don’t usually last as long as veneers.
- Teeth Whitening – Professional teeth whitening can effectively lighten your teeth by eight shades or more. Although it requires a higher upfront investment than store-bought products, the cost is mid-range overall. Plus, treatments that are supervised by our team are safer and more reliable.
- Invisalign – Orthodontic treatments, like Invisalign, typically require a higher investment. That doesn’t mean it isn’t a good choice for your wallet, however. After all, the results of your clear aligner treatment have the potential to last a lifetime!
Cosmetic Dentistry Can Be an Investment Worth Making
Sometimes, patients hesitate to sign on the dotted line because cosmetic dentistry seems superficial. The reality is that investing in your confidence has the potential to positively impact your relationships, your social life, and your professional success. Furthermore, many treatments that fall under this category, like Invisalign, have the potential to benefit your oral health as well. So, if you think that your smile makeover will only benefit your self-esteem, think again!
How to Make Cosmetic Dentistry Affordable
It’s common for patients to assume that their dental insurance provider won’t cover the cost of cosmetic dentistry. However, there are some services that are eligible for coverage, like Invisalign and metal-free restorations. So, it’s worth familiarizing yourself with your available benefits!
If you are a part of the 50% of Americans who don’t have dental insurance, then consider joining our in-house dental membership plan! When you do, you’ll enjoy immediate benefits, like full-mouth whitening for only $89 and 10% off other dental treatments completed at our office. We also offer flexible financing for patients who would prefer to break up their payments into smaller, more manageable chunks.
Cosmetic Dentistry FAQs
Are you ready to get the smile of your dreams? It’s only natural to have some questions about pursuing cosmetic dentistry in Cumberland before getting started. We want you to feel confident in your decision, so to help you make a well-informed choice, we’ve gathered some of the most common questions we get about cosmetic dentistry below. Don’t see the answers you’re looking for? Don’t hesitate to give us a call and we’ll be more than happy to help!
Which Cosmetic Treatment Is Best?
Do you want to improve your smile, but you don’t know where to start? With so many versatile cosmetic dental services to choose from, it’s not an uncommon problem! After all, no one treatment is best for every patient. The one that’s right for you will depend on what you want to change about your pearly whites. When you come visit us for a consultation, we’ll have a conversation with you about your smile goals and evaluate your teeth. From there, we can recommend which services will help you achieve your desired results.
Am I Too Old for Cosmetic Dentistry?
At Diamond Hill Dental, we believe that you’re never too old to have a beautiful, confident, and healthy smile. That’s why there’s no upper age limit for cosmetic dentistry! Years of wear and tear from talking, eating, and going about daily life can leave your pearly whites looking less than perfect, but we can help revamp your smile no matter what you’d like to change about it. While lifelike restorations like crowns, bridges, and dental implants are common choices for senior patients, so are cosmetic services like teeth whitening, cosmetic bonding, and veneers. If necessary, we’ll help get your oral health back on track so you can become a candidate for these treatments.
Are My Kids or Teenagers Too Young for Cosmetic Dentistry?
Did your child chip their tooth as they were learning to run? Have years of drinking too much soda left your teen’s smile discolored? While not all cosmetic services are right for younger patients, there are some that can help restore their pearly whites and their confidence. First, they’ll need to meet with one of our dentists for a consultation to ensure they’re a good candidate, and then we’ll plan out a custom treatment plan for them.
How Long Does Cosmetic Dentistry Take?
This truly depends on which service you’re moving forward with. Some treatments, such as teeth whitening and cosmetic dental bonding, can revamp your smile in as little as a single appointment. However, other services like porcelain veneers can take a few weeks to design, craft, and install. It’s also important to keep in mind that your mouth needs to be free of oral health issues like cavities and gum disease before we improve your smile, so you may need to factor in the time it takes to complete preliminary treatments like fillings and gum disease treatment. When you visit us for your consultation, we’ll give you a personalized estimate of how long you can expect it to take to achieve your ideal results.
