Which Cosmetic Treatment Fits Your Goal?

Close a small gap

Bonding, or Invisalign if teeth need to move

Straighten crowded or crooked teeth

Invisalign clear aligners

Transform your whole smile

A smile makeover that combines treatments

Cosmetic Bonding uses tooth-colored composite resin, shaped and polished by hand, to repair chips, close small gaps and even out edges. It’s usually done in one visit with little or no change to your natural tooth, which makes it a good first step for small fixes.

Invisalign®straightens teeth with a series of clear, removable aligners.

Straightening first can mean fewer veneers, or none at all, and it can make bonding and whitening results look even better.

Neer veneers are custom-made shells bonded to the front of your teeth with no drilling, filing, or enamel removal, completing your new smile in just two visits.

No-prep veneers are ultra-thin shells bonded directly to your teeth without shaving enamel, making them one of the most conservative and reversible cosmetic options available.

Porcelain veneers are thin, custom shells bonded to the front of your teeth to change their shape, size and color.

Traditional porcelain veneers usually need a thin layer removed, so they’re a permanent choice, and Dr. K will tell you honestly if a more conservative option would work.

Professional teeth whitening lifts stains from coffee, tea, wine and time in a single office visit, or at home with custom trays.

It works on natural enamel only, so crowns, bonding and veneers won’t change color.

If you’re planning veneers or bonding, we usually whiten first so new work matches your brightest shade.

Smile Makeovers in Newport Beach

A smile makeover combines two or more treatments into one plan. A common path is Invisalign to line up the teeth, whitening to set the shade, then bonding or veneers to refine shape and size. Planning it as a whole means each step sets up the next, and you avoid paying for work you don’t need.

Dr. K designs your makeover around your face, lip line, gums and bite, not a catalog of “perfect” teeth. The goal is a smile that looks natural in person, in photos and up close, the way people in Newport Beach and Corona del Mar tend to want it.

Your Cosmetic Consultation, Step by Step

  1. Talk about your goals. Tell Dr. K what you’d like to change and what you want to keep. Bring photos of smiles you like, if you have them.
  2. Exam, photos and digital scans. We check your teeth, gums and bite, and take photos and scans to plan with.
  3. See your options. Dr. K explains which treatments fit, what each involves and how long it takes.
  4. Get a written plan and fee. You’ll know the total cost, your insurance and financing options and the timeline before you decide. No pressure to start the same day.
  5. Treatment and follow-up. Most cosmetic plans are finished in a few visits over 2–6 weeks, with a check-up to fine-tune your bite. Invisalign takes longer.

What changes the price

  • Treatment type. Whitening and bonding cost far less than veneers or aligners.
  • Number of teeth. Most veneer smiles cover the 6–10 teeth that show when you smile.
  • Material. Composite costs less up front; porcelain lasts longer and resists stains.
  • Prep work. Some plans need whitening, Invisalign or gum contouring first.

Insurance, HSA/FSA and financing

Dental insurance usually doesn’t cover treatment that’s purely cosmetic, but it may help when a tooth also needs repair. We’ll check your benefits for you. You can use HSA or FSA funds for eligible care, and spread the cost into monthly payments with CareCredit, Cherry or Sunbit.

Cosmetic Dentistry FAQs

What does a cosmetic dentist do?

A cosmetic dentist improves how your teeth and smile look by changing their color, shape, size, spacing or alignment. Common treatments include whitening, bonding, veneers and clear aligners.
 
Good cosmetic work also protects your oral health, so your bite and gums are part of the plan.
 

Both are general dentists with the same dental degree. A cosmetic dentist has taken extra training in aesthetics and focuses on how your teeth and smile look, using treatments like veneers, bonding and whitening. Cosmetic dentistry isn’t one of the specialties recognized by the American Dental Association. Dr. K is a general dentist with advanced cosmetic training and 14 years in practice, so he can care for your oral health and your smile in one place.

No. Cosmetic dentistry isn’t one of the dental specialties recognized by the American Dental Association. Cosmetic dentists are general dentists who take extra training in aesthetics. Dr. K is a general dentist with advanced cosmetic training and 14 years in practice.
 

In the Newport Beach area, professional whitening typically costs $300–$600, bonding $200–$800 per tooth and porcelain veneers $1,000–$3,500 or more per tooth.

A full smile makeover often runs $5,000–$40,000+.

Your fee depends on the treatment, number of teeth and materials. You’ll get a written fee at your consultation.

Usually not when the treatment is purely cosmetic. Insurance may help when a tooth also needs repair, such as a crown on a broken tooth. We’ll check your benefits, and you can use HSA/FSA funds or monthly financing.
 
For a small chip or gap, bonding is often the simpler choice: one visit, little or no change to your tooth, and easy repairs. Veneers suit bigger changes to shape and color across several teeth and last longer. Dr. K will show you which fits your smile.
 
Traditional porcelain veneers usually need a thin layer of enamel removed, so they’re permanent. No-prep veneers need little or none. With good care they can last many years, but a prepared tooth will always need a veneer or crown.
 
It depends on what’s included. Whitening and bonding can be done in a visit or two. Veneers usually take 2–3 visits over 2–4 weeks. If Invisalign comes first, plan on several months. Planning for a wedding or event? Book early so there’s time for each step.
 
Usually, yes. Bonding and veneers don’t change color after they’re placed, so we whiten first and match the new work to your brightest natural shade.
