The Three Most Affordable Cosmetic Dental Treatments
The Three Most Affordable Cosmetic Dental Treatments
Can the word “affordable” be used in the same sentence as “smile makeover” when we’re talking about cosmetic dentistry? Absolutely! While most people think that they need a go-big-or-go-home Hollywood makeover, our Newport Beach dentist offers cosmetic solutions for all budgets.
Tiny Changes, Big Results
Sometimes you don’t need much to make your smile look better. A tiny flaw in a tooth, such as a chipped piece, gapped teeth, or uneven edge may be all that’s detracting from your best appearance.
Fortunately, those can be a quick (and affordable) fix. Cosmetic dentistry has come a long way, making everyday problems like these something that’s fast to correct.
So, what are we talking about when it comes to cosmetic treatments with a price that’s friendly to your budget? In most cases, bonding, teeth whitening, and tooth recontouring.
Cosmetic Bonding Makes a Huge Difference
Did you think that dental veneers were the only choice you had to get a dazzling smile makeover? Dental bonding offers an affordable alternative that’s less invasive and immediate.
Bonding is similar to tooth colored filling material, which we match to the color of your natural enamel. Dr. Yazdan gently conditions your tooth to roughen the surface, then shapes the composite bonding over your tiny tooth flaw. Finally, we’ll use a bright light to cure the material permanently in place.
Instantly, you’ll look in the mirror and the chip, gap, or pitted enamel is no longer visible.
The best part? The price of bonding is just a fraction of that of getting dental veneers. Plus, no numbing is needed! You’ll feel comfortable and relaxed for the entire appointment. But if you do feel a little nervous, we can offer affordable nitrous oxide sedation to ease your nerves. Don’t worry, it’s quickly reversible, so you can drive yourself home afterwards!
Professional Teeth Whitening Brightens Quickly
Almost every cosmetic dentistry case includes professional teeth whitening. At The Center for Restorative & Cosmetic Dentistry, we use ZOOM! Whitening systems.
Compared to over the counter kits, a professional treatment:
- Works faster
- Brightens teeth by several more shades
- Doesn’t require purchasing a brand-new kit every 3-4 months
- Gets your smile its whitest
- Gives you even results across your entire smile

ZOOM! Whitening is a one-visit procedure where we can whiten your teeth in just 1- 1 ½ hours. You’ll go home with significantly whiter teeth. That’s not something an over the counter product can do.
Plus, you can have an at-home kit to use to touch up your smile after every checkup and clean. The price of professional teeth whitening practically pays for itself, since you won’t have to purchase a new store kit each time you need to freshen up your smile. Just stop by our cosmetic dentistry office to grab an affordable tube of prescription strength bleaching gel when you need it (tip: keep it in the refrigerator to help it last longer, and you’ll have to buy it less often!)
Tooth Recontouring
Uneven or irregular tooth edges are often overlooked, but having a consistent smile line is one of the best finishing touches you can put on any smile makeover.
When bonding isn’t needed — because there’s too much tooth structure — it may be necessary to slightly reduce the edges of your teeth and adjust their contours. We call this dental recontouring.
