Affording Elite Cosmetic Dentistry
Cosmetic dentistry is not covered by dental insurance, but we don't want financial barriers to keep our dental patients from requesting procedures that would improve their confidence and appearance.
Our Hamden-area offices accept flexible financing through CareCredit®. This third-party financing option allows patients to break down cosmetic dentistry payments into low or even no interest monthly installments.
Combining Procedures in a Smile Makeover for Especially Stunning Effects
If you have several concerns that no single cosmetic dental procedure could correct, you can combine procedures into one streamlined smile makeover plan. These customized plans use a combination of cosmetic services to address your unique concerns. Certain procedures can be performed in the same appointment, ultimately saving you some time and money.
Our team takes pride in delivering smiles that our Hamden-area patients can proudly show off. By completing decades of personalized cosmetic dentistry cases, we have developed the expertise necessary to know how to pair various procedures together for the best possible results.

Cosmetic Treatments Can Address These Conditions and More
Damaged Teeth
Chipped and cracked teeth may not affect your oral health too much, but they can make you reluctant to smile. Veneers and dental bonding can hide these imperfections.
Discoloration
Even if you've been diligent with your oral hygiene, you may notice a dull, yellowed, or discolored smile. We can use dental lasers or whitening trays to lift years of surface stains and brighten your smile by several shades.
Missing Teeth
A gap can make you hide your smile. Without the proper dental care, missing teeth can also cause your jawbone to atrophy, giving your face an aged, sunken look. Implant-supported restorations are the best dental solution for missing teeth and can keep your jawbone strong.
Become Proud of Your Smile Request Your Consultation Today

We Treat Our Hamden, CT, Patients Right
"I couldn't write a better recommendation if I wanted too. It was my three year old daughter's first time at the dentist and the second she walked in to the second she walked out, she was treated as if she was the president. The staff and everyone there was so good to my daughter and also myself and my wife. The dentists were thorough and informative and did a great job. I couldn't recommend a dentist office enough!"

How Cosmetic Care Can Improve Health
While improving the appearance of your smile may be your priority, it should be noted that certain cosmetic procedures can significantly elevate your oral health as well. Let's take a look at how dental crowns and dental implants can enhance your health.
Dental Crowns
Dental crowns can be purely cosmetic, as they can be placed on abnormally small or misshapen teeth that make your smile asymmetrical. That being said, the treatment also offers many health benefits. Crowns can help bring balance to your bite to prevent uneven wear on your enamel and TMD. Placing a crown over a severely traumatized tooth can protect you from a dental infection, a problem that can lead to diabetes, heart disease, and more.
Dental Implants
Dental implants are highly sought after by Hamden patients who want to replace missing teeth. They are the only restorative dentistry solution that prevents the dangerous jawbone atrophy that occurs as a result of missing teeth. If you do not replace your teeth, your jawbone will deteriorate, leading to both a sunken, aged appearance and the danger of further tooth loss. Tooth loss can exacerbate health issues, prevent you from eating healthy foods, and make you susceptible to more problems.

Taking Care of Your Smile After Cosmetic Dentistry Treatment
To get the most out of your treatment and protect your investment, you should visit our cosmetic dentists every six months. A regular checkup at one of our offices in Hamden, East Haven, or Branford allows us to perform a thorough dental cleaning and examine the state of your teeth.
It's also crucial that you practice good oral hygiene by brushing twice a day and flossing daily. You should also minimize your intake of teeth-staining foods and liquids, or try to drink liquids through a straw. Quit using tobacco, as these products can yellow your teeth and cause serious oral health problems. If you have questions about the best practices for maintaining a beautiful smile, be sure to ask our dentists.
