Porcelain Veneers
A veneer is a thin sheathe of porcelain that is placed over the front of a tooth, and it’s the secret behind many of Hollywood’s most dazzling smiles. Dr. Langworthy can use veneers to improve the shape, size, spacing, and color of the teeth at the same time. They are always custom-made and can be trusted to last for about 20 years with regular care. Whether you want one for a chipped tooth or an entire set to achieve a dramatic makeover, she can complete the treatment in as little as two appointments.
Metal-Free Dental Restorations
Back in the day, if you needed a tooth to be repaired, you would inevitably walk out of the dental office with a dark gray or silver restoration that instantly stuck out in your smile. Thankfully, dentistry has come a long way, and now Dr. Langworthy can use tooth-colored fillings and ceramic EMAX crowns to erase dental damage and enhance your appearance at the same time. These restorations not only look like the real thing, but they can be trusted to last as well.
Dental Bonding
If you have an hour, then you have plenty of time for direct bonding. This treatment is great for getting rid of minor imperfections like small stains, chips, or gaps. A color-matched composite resin is applied to the tooth, and then Dr. Langworthy shapes it to restore and refine the look of the enamel. The resin is then hardened and polished, and that’s it! The entire procedure can take as little as an hour and is 100% painless.
At-Home Teeth Whitening
Everyone wants a bright smile, right? But, most of the whitening products you’ll find in stores or online make a lot of promises they can’t deliver. Instead, we can offer you a custom-tailored take-home kit that includes a set of special trays and a bleaching gel that is several times stronger than anything you can buy on your own. After your first use, you’ll notice a difference, with your brightest shade appearing in just 10-14 days!

Invisalign Clear Aligners
If you’re tired of feeling self-conscious about your crooked, crowded, or gapped teeth, you can do something about them, and it won’t involve metal braces. Invisalign is practically invisible and is able to fix a wide array of orthodontic issues both quickly and comfortably. No one will notice your treatment day-to-day, and you can even take Invisalign off whenever you need to eat or brush your teeth.
Digital Imaging
Digital imaging will help you love your new smile before we ever treat your teeth. That’s because we can use it to mock-up the changes you can achieve with whitening, veneers, or any other procedure you’re considering. This way, any adjustments to your final result can be made before Dr. Langworthy gets started, ensuring the perfect outcome from the very beginning.
Understanding the Cost of Cosmetic Dentistry
Just about everyone has some kind of aesthetic issue about their smile that they’d like to address. Cosmetic dentistry can do that for them, but many people worry that the cost of treatment will stand in the way.
At Langworthy Family Dentistry, we want to make dream smiles achievable for anyone. That’s why we do what we can to make payment as easy as possible for our patients. If you want to learn more about what these services cost, here’s some information you may find useful.
What Cosmetic Dental Service is Right for Me?
Typically, cosmetic dentistry is used to address one or more of a variety of aesthetic issues, like discoloration or imperfectly shaped teeth. Which treatment you should use and its likely cost depends on the problem you’re trying to deal with. Here are a few common procedures.
- Veneers: These have been the secret behind Hollywood smiles for nearly one hundred years. These thin porcelain shells can be layered onto your teeth to cover up just about any imperfection you might have. They’re on the pricier side, but you get what you pay for.
- Dental Bonding: As much as a chip or crack can affect how you look, dental bonding can patch them up in as little as an hour! It’s also one of the most affordable styles of cosmetic dentistry, making it perfect for quick and easy fixes.
- At-Home Teeth Whitening: Just about everyone wants a little bit of a brighter smile, and our professionally-crafted whitening kits can give that to you from the comfort of your home. Middling in terms of price, take-home whitening trays can revitalize your smile within 10-14 days of wearing them.
Cosmetic Dentistry Can Be An Investment Worth Making
While cosmetic dentistry can feel like it’s a big monetary commitment, it’s worth remembering that it isn’t like you’re getting nothing out of it. Quite the opposite: cosmetic dentistry is an investment in yourself and your smile.
The confidence that a good smile gives you can improve your performance at work, how you’re perceived by executives, and how well you can handle new social situations. That makes the money you pay absolutely worth it.
How to Make Cosmetic Dentistry Affordable
Cosmetic dentistry is considered to be elective, so it’s unlikely to be covered by your dental insurance. We understand that can make payment tricky, so we have multiple ways for care to be affordable.
For one, we have an in-house savings plan. For a flat monthly fee, you can get free X-rays, exams, cleanings, and 15% off any other necessary treatment. Combined, this can take a fair amount of the financial burden off of getting cosmetic dentistry.
We also partner with CareCredit to offer financing for patients who qualify. This allows you to split the cost of care into manageable monthly payments, often with little-to-no interest.
If you’re concerned about the cost of cosmetic care, we can talk with you extensively at a consultation about what can be done to make a beautiful smile fit your budget.
