What Is Cosmetic Dentistry?

Cosmetic dentistry focuses on improving the appearance of your teeth, gums, and overall smile while preserving oral health and function. While general dentistry primarily addresses prevention and treatment of dental disease, cosmetic dentistry enhances aesthetics such as tooth color, shape, alignment, proportion, and symmetry.

Modern cosmetic dental treatments are designed to be conservative, comfortable, and long-lasting. In many cases, cosmetic procedures also strengthen teeth and improve function, making cosmetic dentistry both an aesthetic and restorative investment for patients in San Francisco.

Cosmetic Dentistry Treatments We Offer

Cosmetic dentistry includes a wide range of treatments designed to enhance the appearance of your smile. These services may be performed individually or combined into a comprehensive smile makeover depending on your goals and the recommendations of your cosmetic dentist in San Francisco.

The dental bonding procedure utilizes a composite resin and is used for a variety of structural as well as cosmetic purposes. By using dental composite resin bonding your dentist can restore chipped or broken teeth, fill in gaps, and reshape or recolor your smile. Resin compounds can be matched to your teeth or used to lighten and brighten your smile.

Dental bonding is a conservative cosmetic option that typically requires little to no removal of natural tooth structure. It is often completed in a single visit and is ideal for patients seeking subtle yet noticeable cosmetic improvements with minimal downtime.

We specialize in smile makeovers, and treatment plans that include multiple treatment strategies and procedures to give you that perfect smile. Combined with preventative dental care, a smile makeover can take years off your age and give you a new lease on life. We really mean it when we say that we want you to keep your teeth for a lifetime! A smile makeover can be done rapidly or in stages, our goal is to help you find a treatment plan and timeline that suits your needs and budget. Full mouth rejuvenation is anti-aging, it will improve your general health and make you look and feel younger.

Smile makeovers are ideal for patients with multiple cosmetic concerns. Treatment plans may include whitening, bonding, veneers, crowns, or restorative procedures to improve both appearance and function. Makeovers can be completed in phases or as a comprehensive treatment depending on patient preference.

Everyone knows the value of a beautiful, bright smile. Tooth whitening is one of our most desirable services, and is great for removing stains and discoloration, resulting in a younger, healthier-looking smile. We offer both in-office and home whitening options. Zoom!® Whitening is a safe in-office treatment that produces dramatic results and can be followed up with home treatments to lighten your teeth and keep you smiling. During your checkup, you can discuss whitening treatment options with your practitioner that suit your dental needs and budget.

Professional whitening is safer and more effective than over-the-counter products. In-office whitening delivers fast, dramatic results, while take-home trays allow gradual brightening and long-term maintenance under professional supervision.

Veneers are custom-designed shells of tooth-like ceramic material that, when applied over the surface of a tooth, can cover worn enamel, uneven tooth alignment or spacing, and chips or cracks. Dental veneers fall into the category of cosmetic dentistry, they are an option if your teeth are intact and functional, and they create a bright, white smile with beautifully aligned, shapely teeth. The translucent quality of today’s veneers provides a more natural look than what’s been available in the past.

Modern veneers are highly durable and stain-resistant. Each veneer is custom-crafted to match your natural teeth, providing long-lasting cosmetic enhancement when paired with proper oral hygiene and regular dental visits.

Cosmetic tooth-colored fillings restore teeth affected by decay or damage while maintaining a natural appearance. Unlike traditional metal fillings, composite materials blend seamlessly with surrounding teeth.

These fillings bond directly to the tooth structure, helping preserve strength while improving aesthetics. They are an excellent option for patients seeking discreet, functional restorations.

Cosmetic crowns restore teeth that are broken, severely worn, discolored, or misshapen. They are custom-designed to replicate the color, shape, and translucency of natural teeth.

In addition to cosmetic benefits, crowns provide strength and protection, helping extend the lifespan of compromised teeth and restore proper chewing function.

Gum contouring reshapes uneven or excessive gum tissue to improve smile balance and symmetry. This treatment is ideal for patients with a “gummy” smile or irregular gum lines.

By refining the gum line, gum contouring enhances tooth proportions and creates a more harmonious smile while supporting healthy gums.

Tooth reshaping involves subtle adjustments to enamel to improve tooth shape, length, or uniformity. It is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure often combined with bonding or whitening.

This treatment provides immediate improvements with little to no recovery time and is ideal for correcting minor imperfections.
