Personalized Options for a Smile You Feel Confident Sharing

Maybe your teeth are stained. Maybe you have a small chip, uneven teeth, gaps, or simply wish your smile looked a little different. Cosmetic dentistry can address many of these concerns with treatments designed around your goals, your oral health, and the changes you actually want to make.

What Is Cosmetic Dentistry?

Cosmetic dentistry focuses on improving the appearance of your smile while maintaining healthy teeth and gums. Depending on your goals, cosmetic treatments may address tooth color, alignment, shape, spacing, or overall smile appearance. Cosmetic treatment is most successful when your teeth and gums are healthy enough to support the planned result.

Am I a Good Candidate for Cosmetic Dentistry?

Cosmetic dentistry may help patients who want to improve:

  • Tooth discoloration
  • Crooked teeth
  • Gaps between teeth
  • Chipped teeth
  • Uneven tooth appearance
  • Worn-down teeth

Healthy gums and teeth are important before beginning cosmetic treatment. If needed, we can help you address preventive or periodontal care first so your cosmetic results have a healthy foundation.

    Treatment is designed around your needs and preferences.

Cosmetic vs. General Dentistry

General dentistry focuses on:

  • Preventing disease
  • Treating cavities
  • Maintaining oral health

Cosmetic dentistry focuses on:

  • Improving smile appearance
  • Enhancing confidence
  • Addressing aesthetic concerns

Many treatments overlap because a healthy smile is the foundation of cosmetic results.

Professional Take-Home Teeth Whitening

Custom-fitted whitening trays and professional-strength gel allow you to whiten your natural teeth at home with guidance from our dental team.

Why custom trays make all the difference

Store-bought kits use generic trays that never fit properly — whitening gel pools unevenly, irritates your gums, and produces inconsistent results. Our custom-molded trays hold the gel exactly where it needs to be, giving you a noticeably whiter smile safely and effectively.

Our team will assess your current shade and recommend the right whitening strength for your goals. Most patients see significant results within one to two weeks of at-home use.

Custom Night Guards & Mouth Guards

Just like our whitening trays, our protective guards are custom-fabricated from impressions of your teeth — not off-the-shelf. A properly fitted guard stays in place, protects your enamel, and is far more comfortable to wear through the night.

  • Night Guards (Bruxism)

    If you grind or clench your teeth while sleeping, a custom night guard cushions the impact and prevents enamel wear, cracking, and jaw pain.

  • Sports Mouth Guards

    Protect your teeth during contact sports with a guard that fits your exact bite — far superior to boil-and-bite options from a sporting goods store.

Invisalign Clear Aligners

Invisalign has transformed orthodontic treatment for adults and teens who want a straighter smile without the look and feel of traditional metal braces. The clear, removable aligners are virtually invisible and can be taken out for eating, brushing, and flossing.

Invisalign is effective for correcting:

  • Crowded or overlapping teeth
  • Gaps between teeth
  • Overbite, underbite, and crossbite
  • Open bite
  • Mild to moderate misalignment

Schedule a consultation with Dr. Bishara to find out if Invisalign is right for you. We'll take digital impressions and show you a preview of your projected results before you commit.

Veneers

Veneers are custom-made porcelain shells that can improve the appearance of teeth that are uneven, worn, discolored, chipped, or slightly misshapen. They are a versatile option for patients who want to improve tooth shape, size, color, or overall smile balance.

During a smile consultation, we can help you understand whether veneers fit your goals and how they compare with whitening, bonding, Invisalign, or restorative treatment.

Tooth Bonding

Tooth bonding is a quick, affordable cosmetic procedure that can dramatically improve the appearance of chipped, cracked, discolored, or slightly gapped teeth. A tooth-colored composite resin is carefully shaped and sculpted to match your natural tooth, then hardened with a UV curing light.

Bonding typically requires just one visit and no anesthesia, making it one of the least invasive cosmetic options available. It's an excellent choice for minor repairs and cosmetic touch-ups.

Botox for TMJ, Clenching, and Facial Aesthetics

Dr. Bishara offers therapeutic and cosmetic Botox as part of a comprehensive approach to facial health and aesthetics. With an in-depth understanding of facial anatomy, he can evaluate whether Botox may be an appropriate option for your goals.

  • Therapeutic Botox

    For patients with TMJ-related jaw discomfort, chronic clenching or grinding, facial muscle tension, or tension headaches, Botox may help relax overactive jaw muscles. It can be considered alongside other recommendations, such as a custom night guard, based on your symptoms and oral health.

  • Cosmetic Botox

    Cosmetic Botox can soften the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles around the forehead, eyes, and mouth for a refreshed, natural-looking result that complements your smile.

A consultation with Dr. Bishara is the best way to discuss your symptoms, smile goals, and whether therapeutic or cosmetic Botox may be right for you.

Cost Expectations

The cost of cosmetic dentistry varies depending on the treatment selected, the complexity of your goals, and your individual needs. During your consultation, we will review your options and explain estimated costs before beginning treatment.

Most insurance companies do not cover cosmetic dental procedures, but we will check and verify your benefits at your consultation so we can give you accurate pricing and cost quotes.
