These procedures, conducted by qualified specialists, not only improve the appearance of your teeth but also repair damage caused by accidents or pre-existing conditions. Whether through teeth whitening, veneers, or other procedures, cosmetic dentistry can transform your smile and enhance your confidence.
10 Cosmetic Dentistry Procedures
Teeth Whitening
Professional whitening treatments deliver quicker and more noticeable results compared to at-home options, effectively reducing stains caused by coffee, tea, smoking, and other factors.
Dental Veneers
Thin, custom-made porcelain or composite resin shells designed to cover the front surface of your teeth, concealing imperfections such as stains, chips, or gaps.
Dental Crowns
Caps that completely cover and protect a damaged or weakened tooth, restoring its shape, size, and strength with a natural appearance.
Orthodontics & Invisalign
From traditional braces to modern clear aligners, orthodontics can address overcrowding, spacing, and bite irregularities discreetly and comfortably.
Dental Bonding
A simple, cost-effective procedure using tooth-colored resin to repair chips, cracks, discoloration, and gaps -- often completed in just one visit.
Inlays & Onlays
Custom restorations for teeth too damaged for a filling but not enough for a crown. Made from porcelain, composite resin, or gold for durability.
Gum Contouring
Improves the appearance of your gumline using advanced dental lasers, ideal for individuals with a 'gummy smile' or uneven gums.
Smile Makeover
A comprehensive, personalized treatment plan combining multiple procedures to address discoloration, misalignment, and uneven teeth for your dream smile.
Full Mouth Reconstruction
For patients with extensive dental issues -- combining crowns, bridges, veneers, implants, and gum treatments to restore functionality and aesthetics.
Cosmetic Dental Implants
The gold standard for replacing missing teeth. Titanium posts provide a sturdy foundation for natural-looking crowns that last a lifetime.

What to Expect During a Cosmetic Dentistry Consultation
Every cosmetic transformation at Premier Dental begins with a thoughtful consultation. Here is what the process looks like from your first call to your final result.
Initial Smile Assessment
During your first visit to our Albemarle or Charlotte office, we conduct a comprehensive examination of your teeth, gums, and bite. We take digital photographs, X-rays, and impressions to assess the current state of your smile and identify areas for improvement. Most importantly, we listen to what you want to change and what your ideal outcome looks like.
Custom Treatment Plan
Based on your assessment, we create a personalized treatment plan that may include a single procedure or a combination of treatments. We discuss timelines, expected results, costs, and alternative options so you can make a fully informed decision. For smile makeovers, we may use digital previews to help you visualize the final outcome before treatment begins.
Treatment and Transformation
Treatment timelines vary by procedure. Professional teeth whitening can be completed in a single visit, dental bonding typically takes under an hour per tooth, and porcelain veneers usually require two appointments spaced about two weeks apart. Throughout every step, our team ensures your comfort and keeps you informed about progress. Most cosmetic procedures involve minimal to no discomfort.
Maintenance and Follow-Up
After your cosmetic treatment is complete, we schedule follow-up visits to ensure everything looks and functions perfectly. We also provide personalized maintenance guidelines -- including dietary recommendations, oral hygiene tips, and touch-up schedules -- to help your new smile last as long as possible. Regular preventive dental care is essential for protecting your cosmetic investment.

Cosmetic Dentistry Insurance and Pricing
Cosmetic dentistry pricing varies significantly depending on the procedure. A simple teeth whitening session is considerably less than a full set of porcelain veneers or a complete smile makeover. Some cosmetic procedures that also serve a restorative function -- such as dental crowns or bonding to repair a broken tooth -- may be partially covered by dental insurance.
At Premier Dental, we accept most major dental insurance plans and will help you understand which portions of your cosmetic treatment may be covered. For procedures not covered by insurance, we offer flexible payment options to make your dream smile accessible.
