Veneers
We can use customized veneers to hide imperfections and generate a new and improved smile. Using high-quality materials that look natural, last more than a decade, and are durable against daily wear and tear, these restorations can completely change the look of your teeth by altering their shape, color, and size, creating a one-of-a-kind smile that gives you the look you’ve always wanted.
Metal-Free Restorations
Metal restorations were once the only way to repair broken or decayed teeth; however, that is not the case anymore. Now, we can protect vulnerable teeth while improving your oral health and aesthetics. Instead of worrying about dark rings caused by silver or gold, our EMAX or zirconia crowns can create a seamless and beautiful result that can last 15-20 years.
Cosmetic Bonding
You might not think minor chips or stains need to be addressed, but if they are in visible areas of your smile, you may find that they become more of a nuisance over time. With cosmetic bonding, this non-invasive form of treatment uses composite resin to conceal flaws, allowing you to keep more of your natural tooth structure. Once sculpted into place, you’ll see that your smile looks brand-new – a task that can be easily completed in a single appointment.

Dental stains and discoloration shouldn’t be what keeps you from making a good first impression. Offering both in-office and take-home whitening kits, Dr. Kiesel and our team can integrate high-powered bleaching gel to penetrate your enamel and effectively remove stains above and below the surface. No matter which method you choose, you can expect dramatic results that leave you with a showstopping smile.

Understanding the Cost of Cosmetic Dentistry
Are you interested in leaving chips, stains, and other imperfections in the past, but also want to learn more about the cost first? If so, you’re in the right place! Below, you will find some helpful information related to the price, including how to make your smile makeover more affordable. You’re welcome to schedule a consultation with Dr. Donna Kiesel as well. That way, she can learn more about your aesthetic goals, create your custom treatment plan, and provide you with an estimate of the cost.
Which Cosmetic Dental Service is Right for Me?
Of course, one of the biggest factors that impacts the cost is the cosmetic dental treatment you choose. Here are a few we offer:
- Veneers – Typically, veneers require the highest upfront investment. That said, the price depends on several factors, including how many you need to achieve the results you desire. It’s also worth noting that they usually last for 10+ years, so they may be the best option for your smile and your wallet in the long run.
- Metal-Free Restorations – Since metal-free restorations fall under both the restorative and cosmetic umbrella, a portion of the cost is usually covered by dental insurance providers. If that’s the case for you, then your out-of-pocket expenses will be significantly less.
- Cosmetic Bonding – Cosmetic bonding isn’t just versatile and painless; it’s also very affordable! That said, the results don’t typically last as long as veneers, so it’s important to consider both the upfront and overall cost when deciding between the two.
- Teeth Whitening – Professional teeth whitening is far superior to the products you’ll find OTC. As a result, the initial investment is higher. The good news is that you’ll actually get the results you desire, and they can last for 6+ months with the proper care and maintenance.
Here’s Why Cosmetic Dentistry Is an Investment Worth Making
If you’re wondering why cosmetic dentistry is worth the investment, there isn’t just one reason. Over the years, countless studies have shown that a beautiful, healthy smile can positively impact everything from your self-esteem and your love life to your professional success. It even has the potential to improve your oral health! After all, many treatments that fall under the cosmetic umbrella, like cosmetic bonding and veneers, can fix chips, cracks, and gaps. Plus, if you love your smile, you’ll take good care of it!
How to Make Cosmetic Dentistry Affordable
Although our team is happy to work with a wide variety of policies, many dental insurance providers don’t cover treatments that aren’t “medically necessary.” Fortunately, that’s not the only financial solution available. At our Coppell office, we also welcome flexible financing with several third-party financiers, including CareCredit. As a result, you don’t have to pay for the entire cost of your smile makeover in one lump sum. Instead, you can space out the price into smaller monthly chunks that work within your budget.
Cosmetic Dentistry FAQs
Is Cosmetic Dentistry Expensive?
While many people assume that cosmetic dentistry must be incredibly expensive, this is not always the case. While cosmetic dental treatments are rarely covered by insurance policies because they are considered elective, these procedures come at a range of price points and can deliver priceless benefits by enhancing your appearance and self-esteem. Some patients find that improving the beauty of their smiles can help them land lucrative new jobs or juicy promotions, so your cosmetic dental work may wind up paying for itself. We also partner with CareCredit, Lending Club, and Sunbit to offer patients flexible financing options that can break their bills into easily manageable monthly installments.
Is Cosmetic Dentistry Covered by Insurance?
Dental insurance plans don’t typically cover elective procedures such as cosmetic dental treatments. However, your policy may offer some coverage if your treatment is intended to deliver oral health benefits, such as when veneers or metal-free restorations are used to restore damaged teeth. In these cases, treatments are usually covered by about 50 to 80%, but the actual rate varies depending on the particular insurance policy. We’ll be happy to help you navigate your insurance and financing options during your consultation so you can know exactly what your plan will pay for.
Is Cosmetic Dentistry Safe?
Cosmetic dental treatments are perfectly safe as long as they are performed by a qualified professional such as Dr. Kiesel. However, no treatment is right for every patient, so it’s important to have a consultation at our Coppell office so we can evaluate your oral health before recommending any procedure. Cosmetic services can cause significant damage if the patient has underlying oral health issues such as tooth decay or gum disease, so these infections will have to be resolved before any aesthetic treatment can begin. We’ll be happy to perform restorative work or periodontal therapy to address these problems if necessary.
If you’re interested in teeth whitening, it’s important to know that many store-bought brightening products are of inferior quality and can lead to injuries due to user error or poor manufacture. Professional whitening treatments, on the other hand, are totally customized to provide maximum safety as well as remarkable results.
How Long Does Cosmetic Dentistry Last?
The lifespan of the results of your cosmetic dental treatment depends on the procedure performed as well as your oral hygiene habits. Cosmetic bonding and teeth whitening can last for up to three years if you take excellent care of your smile, but veneers and metal-free restorations can last for a decade or more before needing replacement. The best ways to maximize the duration of your cosmetic dental results are to practice excellent dental hygiene, attend regular checkups at our Coppell office, avoid using your teeth to open packages or bottles, and limit your consumption of foods and beverages that can cause discoloration.
