When most people think of cosmetic dentistry, they think of teeth whitening procedures and orthodontics–but did you know that this practice can actually help you with everything from sensitive teeth to improved oral health?

At Isaacs Family Dental, we understand the nuanced area that exists between cosmetic and restorative dentistry–and how the two are related and interconnected. We center our practice around helping our clients achieve their smile goals–whether that’s brightening your enamel for a confident smile or improving the alignment of your teeth for improved oral health. We understand your goals are as unique as your smile, which is why we love working with clients to come up with individualized strategies to achieve your smile goals. Life’s too short to hide the teeth behind your smile. Boost your confidence with us today! 

What Is Cosmetic Dentistry?

As the name implies, “cosmetic” dentistry focuses on improving the appearance of your smile, teeth, and gums. This increasingly popular practice generally involves services ranging from orthodontics and veneers to teeth whitening.

Cosmetic Dentistry vs. General Dentistry

In contrast, general dentistry comes from your primary care provider and focuses on preventative care–including dental cleanings and other restorative treatments, fillings, crowns, and more. General dentistry is what most people think of when they know it’s time for a dental visit–but those looking for smile beautification will likely be on the hunt for a cosmetic dentist.

While these two specialties may seem unrelated, there are actually more similarities than you might think, if you take a closer look. For example, the alignment of your teeth can definitely cause cosmetic issues if your goal is having a perfectly straight smile–but it can also cause health concerns as well, such as difficulty chewing, breathing, and speaking, increased likelihood of cavities and gum disease, and more. 

Your best bet in finding a trustworthy dentist is to select a holistic professional like Dr. David Isaacs, who offers both cosmetic and general dentistry at his practice. This ensures a customized approach that helps to reach your smile goals while also improving health and practicing necessary, preventative oral health care.

Is Cosmetic Dentistry Covered By Insurance?

This is a question that can get tricky, fast. That’s because the answer depends on the nature of your dental issue, insurance coverage, and the service you seek from Dr. Isaacs. Typically, however, the following procedures can fall both into cosmetic dentistry and restorative dentistry categories:

• Veneers
• Dental Implants
• Porcelain Crowns

These are sometimes covered by insurance, as it’s easier to correlate the procedure with your overall health and well-being. However, if you have any questions about whether or not your smile goals will be covered by insurance, we encourage you to contact your insurance provider.

Don’t Have Insurance? We Can Work With That.

Benefits of Cosmetic Dentistry

At Isaacs Family Dental, we understand the transformative power of cosmetic dentistry. It’s not just about enhancing aesthetics; it’s about improving your overall health and well-being–from the physical to the psychological and emotional! Here are the top three benefits of investing in your smile:

Improves Your Health (Dental and General!)

Did you know that cosmetic dentistry goes beyond just enhancing your smile? It can actually contribute to your overall health in more ways than one. By addressing issues such as misaligned teeth, gaps, or discoloration, cosmetic treatments can improve your bite and jaw alignment, reduce the risk of jaw pain and headaches, and even protect vulnerable areas from further decay, such as jaw tissue–issues commonly associated with Restorative Dentistry. 

A straighter smile is not only more visually appealing but also easier to clean, lowering the risk of gum disease and cavities–and these primary pillars of oral health have been linked to diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and heart disease. At Isaacs Family Dental, we prioritize your health alongside your smile, ensuring that every cosmetic treatment we provide offers long-term benefits for your overall well-being.

Prevents Future Damage

Investing in cosmetic dentistry isn’t just about fixing current issues; it’s about preventing future problems as well. Whether it’s through orthodontic treatments to correct misalignments or dental implants to replace missing teeth, our comprehensive approach to cosmetic dentistry aims to address underlying issues and prevent further damage–whether that’s to your health or to your smile. Cosmetic procedures such as tooth bonding can also make your teeth stronger and more resilient in years to come, preventing opportunities for decay and improving the visual appearance of your smile at the same time! 

By taking proactive steps to enhance the appearance and functionality of your smile, you’re not just investing in a brighter future; you’re safeguarding your dental health for years to come. 

Improves Self-Esteem

Your smile is often the first thing people notice about you, and it plays a significant role in your self-perception, confidence, and even in your professional life. At Isaacs Family Dental, we understand the impact that a beautiful smile can have on your overall well-being–and we’re not alone. Studies show that roughly 60% of people feel a significant increase in confidence after having their teeth straightened–and over 70% said they find people with straight teeth more trustworthy than those with crooked teeth (New York Times). 

Whether you’re dealing with stained teeth, chipped enamel, or unwanted gaps between your teeth, our cosmetic dentistry treatments are designed to give you the confidence to smile freely and live your life to the fullest. From teeth whitening and veneers to smile makeovers, we offer personalized solutions tailored to your unique needs and goals. With a newfound sense of confidence in your smile, you’ll be ready to take on the world with a renewed sense of self-assurance.

Tooth bonding is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that involves applying tooth-colored composite resin to repair chips, cracks, gaps, and other imperfections in your teeth. Using the latest bonding techniques and materials, Dr. Isaacs can seamlessly blend the resin with your natural teeth, creating a smooth, uniform appearance that restores both the beauty and functionality of your smile. Whether you’re looking to correct minor flaws or transform the appearance of multiple teeth, tooth bonding offers a cost-effective and efficient solution with immediate results.
