Let Your Smile
Shine Brightly

Man and woman with flawless smiles thanks to cosmetic dentistry

A flawless smile isn’t likely to happen on its own. Even if you take good care of your teeth, stains, chips, and other flaws are likely to appear over the years. Does that mean you have to give up on your dream smile? Not at all! Admired Smiles Dental Center offers all kinds of cosmetic services for refreshing smiles that have become dull and worn down over time. Call us to set up a consultation with our cosmetic dentist in Hingham, MA, Dr. Hegazi, to learn more about how we can enhance your smile to make it even brighter.

Why Choose Admired Smiles Dental Center for Cosmetic Dentistry?

Veneers

If you’re just not sure where to start with your cosmetic treatment, porcelain veneers may be an excellent way to deal with all of your problems at once! Each veneer is made out of beautiful porcelain that has been shaded in a way that seamlessly blends in with the rest of your teeth. We simply attach the veneers over the teeth in question, and just like that, numerous flaws simply disappear, leaving only a brilliant, natural-looking tooth.

Lumineers

As you might have guessed from the name, Lumineers are similar to veneers. The main difference is that Lumineers are much thinner. Because of this, they can usually be attached to the teeth right away; there’s no need for us to remove natural enamel first. Not only does this simplify the process, but it also means the tooth itself is kept fully intact. You can even have the Lumineers removed in the future if you want to.

Metal-Free Dental Crowns

Crowns can be made of metal, but if you want to correct aesthetic damage in addition to restoring your oral health, you’ll want to look into getting a metal-free ceramic crown instead. The ceramic material not only looks great, but it feels much more comfortable in your mouth, and it can last for many years. This type of crown is especially beneficial for those who suffer from some type of allergy or sensitivity to metal.

Cosmetic Dental Bonding

Cosmetic bonding, or direct bonding as it’s sometimes called, is proof that the smallest changes can make the biggest difference. A little bit of composite resin is used to conceal chips, cracks, stains and gaps. Unlike veneers, cosmetic bonding can be completed in just one visit and doesn’t involve making permanent changes to the enamel. For those who only have a few flaws to worry about, we may recommend bonding as a quick, yet effective, solution.

ZOOM!® Teeth Whitening

When teeth have been discolored by beverages, tobacco, or old age, the ZOOM! in-office whitening procedure can be used to get rid of the stain particles hiding beneath the enamel. This leaves the teeth several shades brighter – and all over the course of one short dental visit! For those who want to enjoy the benefits of professional whitening but would rather have the process done at home, you can ask us about our take-home kits.

Gum Recontouring

How much thought do you give your gums when you smile? Ideally, the answer should be “not much”, but there are cases where there’s so much gum tissue in the mouth that the teeth end up looking smaller or unevenly sized as a result. Dr. Hegazi can carefully remove the unneeded tissue and reveal more of your natural teeth to restore balance to your grin. Don’t let a naturally “gummy smile” stop you from making a good first impression!

Virtual Smile Design

Do you want to know what your smile will look like after getting veneers or having whitening done? With our virtual smile design software, it’s a simple matter to modify existing pictures of your teeth in order to give you a “preview” of what you can expect from your cosmetic treatment. We hope that this helps simplify the decision-making process for you. If you’d like, you can even show your friends and family members pictures of your potential future smile to get their feedback.

Understanding the Cost of Cosmetic Dentistry

Many patients worry about the cost of cosmetic dentistry in Hingham because they know dental insurance typically does not cover cosmetic treatment. However, our team works closely with each patient to understand their smile goals, develop a personalized treatment plan, and explore different payment options. At Admired Smiles Dental Center, we offer a wide range of cosmetic procedures that accomplish different things at separate price points. The best way to learn how much you can expect to pay to enhance your smile is to schedule a consultation at our dental office.

Which Cosmetic Dental Service Is Right for Me?

Cosmetic dentistry can fix a wide range of dental imperfections. In general, our cosmetic patients usually want to achieve whiter, straighter, and/or differently shaped/sized teeth. Dr. Hegazi can help you explore all possible options, such as:

  • Teeth Whitening – Are your teeth stained from years of drinking coffee or smoking tobacco? ZOOM! in-office whitening can turn your enamel several shades brighter over the course of one short dental visit! If you prefer a more gradual whitening process, you can ask us about our take-home kits.
  • Cosmetic Bonding – One of the cheapest cosmetic options, bonding is great for small changes like concealing small chips or cracks. Affordable and fast, bonding treatment typically must be touched up every few years.
  • Veneers – Veneers can enhance a single tooth or transform an entire row of teeth. Veneer treatment typically costs more than other options but can also last for over a decade with proper care.
  • Lumineers – Lumineers are similar to veneers but are thinner and therefore do not require any tooth enamel to be removed. Not only does this simplify the process, but it also means the tooth itself is kept fully intact. Lumineers and veneers usually cost about the same.
  • Gum Recontouring – Do you have a “gummy” smile? Dr. Hegazi can carefully remove unneeded tissue and reveal more of your natural teeth to restore balance to your grin.

Cosmetic Dentistry Can Be an Investment Worth Making

Partnering with a cosmetic dentist in Hingham to rejuvenate your smile can seem like a big commitment. However, investing in cosmetic dentistry can pay off for many years to come. When you arrive to a job interview, a date, or even a get together with friends, your smile is often the first thing others notice about you. If you don’t feel confident about your teeth, you may behave in a more timid, self-conscious manner. On the flip side, greater confidence can often lead to a more active social life, more successful romantic life, and even greater professional opportunities. In this sense, the cost of a confident smile is really priceless.

How to Make Cosmetic Dentistry Affordable

As we mentioned above, most dental insurance plans do not cover cosmetic dentistry. However, it’s still possible to enhance your smile without busting your budget. For instance, qualified patients can access flexible dental financing through CareCredit. A trusted partner, CareCredit provides low-to-no interest payment plans for cosmetic procedures. By breaking down the cost of veneers, bonding, or other cosmetic care into smaller monthly payments, you can boost your smile now and pay back the cost over time.

At Admired Smiles Dental Center, we are committed to helping patients achieve the beautiful smiles of their dreams in an affordable way. Schedule a consultation with Dr. Hegazi to learn more about the cost of cosmetic dentistry in Hingham and explore different payment options.

Cosmetic Dentistry FAQs

Are you ready to visit Admired Smiles Dental Center and achieve the beautiful smile you deserve? Improving your pearly whites is a big decision, so it’s only natural to have questions before you’re ready to commit to a treatment plan. That’s why we’ve gathered some of the most commonly asked questions we get about cosmetic dentistry below! We want to help you make a well-informed and confident decision about your dental care, so don’t hesitate to call us for more information.

Which Service Is Right for Me?

With so many versatile cosmetic services to choose from, it can be difficult to tell which one is right for you. That’s perfectly ok! When you visit us for a consultation, we’ll discuss your goals for your smile with you and evaluate your oral health. From there, we’ll be able to recommend which treatments will be best for helping you reach your desired goals!

We’ll use a special software to take images of your mouth, then we’ll adjust the image according to how each service will change your pearly whites. This way, you can begin your treatment already knowing that you’re going to love the final results!

How Long Does Cosmetic Dentistry Take?

How long it takes to get your ideal smile will depend on what treatment you choose. Some cosmetic services can be completed in one quick and easy appointment, such as cosmetic bonding and teeth whitening. Custom-made solutions that need to be crafted, such as dental crowns and porcelain veneers, will need a few weeks to be designed, fabricated, and placed. We’ll give you a personalized estimate of how long you can expect your treatment to take during your consultation.

Am I Too Old for Cosmetic Dentistry?

There is no upper limit to cosmetic dentistry! No matter how many years you’ve seen, we believe you deserve to have a beautiful, confident smile. To qualify for cosmetic dentistry, you’ll need to be in good oral health, so we may recommend treatments like fillings or gum disease therapy before improving the appearance of your pearly whites. We also offer services like tooth extractions and replacements to help you get the smile you deserve.

Can Kids Get Cosmetic Dentistry?

Whether your child chipped a tooth playing their favorite sport or their teeth are discolored from drinking too many sodas, they may be eligible for cosmetic dentistry. Not all services are a good choice for children, especially if they still have some of their baby teeth. However, they may benefit from simple treatments like teeth whitening or cosmetic dental bonding. We’ll need to meet with your child or teen first to ensure they’re a good candidate for cosmetic dentistry, and then we’ll help you determine which treatment might be best for their situation.

Does It Hurt to Get Cosmetic Dentistry?

No matter which service you choose to pursue on your journey towards the smile of your dreams, we will always strive to make it a comfortable one. Our knowledgeable and friendly team has years of experience, and in some cases, we may recommend numbing your mouth to ensure you feel little to no discomfort. If you have moderate dental anxiety or want to complete several treatments at once, oral conscious sedation may be a good choice for you.
