Your Guide to Cosmetic Dentistry Options

Cosmetic dentistry offers a range of treatments to improve the appearance of your smile. Popular options like veneers, teeth whitening, and Invisalign can correct chips, stains, and misalignments—helping you achieve a more confident, beautiful smile. These treatments are safe, effective, and tailored to your unique dental needs.

Why Smile Transformations Are More Popular Than Ever

Your smile is one of the first things people notice—and one of the easiest things to enhance thanks to modern cosmetic dentistry. Whether you’re concerned about yellowing teeth, small chips, or crowded alignment, there’s a treatment that fits your goals and lifestyle.

At Avalon Dental Center, we specialize in personalized smile makeovers using the most advanced technology and techniques in cosmetic dentistry.

What Is Cosmetic Dentistry?

Cosmetic dentistry focuses on improving the aesthetics of your teeth, gums, and overall smile. It combines art and science to create natural-looking, functional results.

Common Concerns Cosmetic Dentistry Can Address:

  • Discoloration or yellowing

  • Crooked or gapped teeth

  • Uneven tooth shape or size

  • Chipped, cracked, or worn-down teeth

  • Minor misalignment or crowding

Dental Veneers: Instantly Transform Your Smile

Dental veneers are ultra-thin porcelain or composite shells that are bonded to the front surface of your teeth.

Why Patients Love Veneers:

  • Cover chips, cracks, and deep stains

  • Improve tooth shape and alignment

  • Look natural and are stain-resistant

  • Last 10–15 years or longer with proper care

Example: A patient with worn and discolored front teeth used veneers to achieve a brighter, more youthful smile within two visits.

Professional Teeth Whitening: Brighten Your Smile in One Visit

Store-bought whitening kits often underdeliver. Professional teeth whitening at Avalon Dental Center offers dramatic results safely and quickly.

Benefits of In-Office Whitening:

  • Removes deep stains from coffee, wine, smoking, etc.

  • Up to 8 shades whiter in a single visit

  • Safe for sensitive teeth

  • Longer-lasting than OTC options

Types of Whitening We Offer:

  • In-office laser or gel whitening

  • Take-home trays custom-fitted to your teeth

Invisalign: The Clear Choice for Straighter Teeth

Forget metal braces. Invisalign uses clear, removable aligners to straighten teeth discreetly and comfortably.

Why Invisalign Is a Top Choice:

  • Virtually invisible

  • Removable for eating and cleaning

  • Comfortable and non-irritating

  • Great for teens and adults

  • Treats mild to moderate misalignment

Bonus: Straight teeth are easier to clean and reduce your risk for gum disease and cavities.

Smile Makeover: Combine Treatments for the Best Results

A smile makeover may include a mix of cosmetic and restorative treatments tailored to your smile goals. Your dentist will perform a full evaluation and design a custom treatment plan, which might include:

  • Veneers for shape

  • Whitening for brightness

  • Invisalign for alignment

  • Bonding or contouring for minor adjustments
