Cosmetic Dentistry FAQs

Ideal candidates are those who wish to enhance their tooth color, shape, or overall appearance. Common needs include discoloration, chips, minor gaps, uneven tooth shape, or simply wanting a brighter smile. During your consultation, Dr. Monfredi evaluates your oral health and discusses which treatment—whitening, bonding, or veneers—is most suitable for you.

Most cosmetic procedures are minimally invasive. Bonding and veneers involve local anesthesia only when minor drilling is required. Whitening sessions may cause temporary sensitivity, which typically subsides within a few hours. Our team ensures your comfort throughout every step of the process.

Teeth whitening: In-office or take-home results typically last between 6 months and 2 years, depending on habits such as coffee or tobacco use. Re-treatment schedules are tailored individually.
Bonding: Durable for 3–10 years with proper care. As it's resin-based, it may stain over time and require touch-ups.
Veneers, made from strong porcelain, typically last 10–15 years, possibly longer with good oral hygiene.

To keep your cosmetic results, maintain excellent oral hygiene by brushing and flossing daily. Avoid substances that can cause stains (such as coffee, red wine, and tobacco). Attend regular dental cleanings and checkups. Use your whitening trays for touch-ups or schedule refreshing in-office sessions as recommended.

Costs vary based on treatment: in-office whitening, bonding, and veneers each have different pricing. We offer transparent estimates, accept most insurance plans when applicable, and our Dental Membership Program helps make smile-enhancing dentistry more affordable.

Absolutely. We match the shade, shape, and bite of your teeth to your natural teeth. Veneers are crafted in a lab to simulate natural translucency, while bonding is sculpted chairside for seamless integration.
