What Is Cosmetic Dentistry?
Cosmetic dentistry improves the appearance of your teeth, gums, and bite. Unlike general dental care, these procedures focus on aesthetic goals while maintaining excellent oral health. A skilled cosmetic dentist combines artistry with dental expertise to create beautiful smile transformations.
Our cosmetic dentistry services address common concerns like discolored teeth, gaps, chips, and missing teeth. Each treatment plan targets your specific needs and desired outcomes.
Our Cosmetic Dentistry Services
Clear Aligners We Offer: Invisalign® and SureSmile®
Invisalign® and SureSmile® straighten teeth without traditional metal braces. These clear aligners fit snugly over your teeth and gradually move them into the proper position. Most patients wear aligners for 12-18 months, depending on their case complexity.
Residents of the greater Columbus area can benefit from:
- Nearly invisible appearance
- Removable for eating and cleaning
- Comfortable fit
- Predictable results
Porcelain Veneers
Porcelain veneers are thin shells that cover the front surface of teeth. They correct chips, stains, gaps, and minor alignment issues. Veneers typically last 10-15 years with proper care.
The process involves removing a small amount of tooth enamel, taking impressions, and bonding custom-made veneers to your natural tooth structure.
Professional Teeth Whitening
Professional whitening removes stains and discoloration more effectively than over-the-counter products. We offer in-office treatments that brighten teeth several shades in one appointment.
Our whitening treatments are safe and produce consistent results. The process typically takes 60-90 minutes.
Dental Bonding
Dental bonding uses tooth-colored composite resin to repair chips, close gaps, and improve tooth shape. This treatment preserves your natural tooth structure and provides immediate results.
The procedure involves applying resin directly to the tooth, shaping it, and hardening it with a special light. Bonding typically lasts 3-7 years.
Inlays and Onlays
Inlays and onlays restore damaged teeth when fillings are insufficient, but crowns are unnecessary. These custom restorations preserve more of your natural tooth compared to full crowns.
Made from porcelain or composite materials, inlays and onlays provide strength and a natural appearance. They typically last for 10-15 years for Worthington residents.
Dental Bridges
Dental bridges replace missing teeth by anchoring to adjacent healthy teeth. This treatment restores your smile’s appearance and maintains proper bite alignment.
Modern bridges look natural and function like your original teeth. With good oral health habits, bridges can last 10-15 years or longer.
Our Approach to Cosmetic Dentistry
Dr. Kevin and Connor Huelsman are truly proud to serve Worthington, Franklin County, and all of the northern suburbs of Columbus with years of experience in cosmetic dentistry. Our practice uses advanced technology and proven techniques to deliver consistent results.
Every treatment begins with a thorough consultation to understand your aesthetic goals and oral health needs. We explain all treatment options and help you make informed decisions.
Planning Your Beautiful Smile
Successful cosmetic dentistry requires careful planning. During your consultation, our Worthington dentist evaluates your teeth, gums, and bite. We discuss your smile goals and recommend appropriate treatment options.
Some patients benefit from combining multiple treatments. For example, whitening before veneers ensures optimal color matching. Clear aligners might precede other treatments to achieve ideal tooth positioning.
Maintaining Your Results
Proper oral health habits protect your investment in cosmetic dentistry. Regular brushing, flossing, and dental checkups preserve your beautiful smile for years.
Avoid habits that damage teeth, like chewing ice or using teeth as tools. Wear a night guard if you grind your teeth during sleep.
