Veneers, bonding, gum contouring and whitening to improve the look of your smile: chips, gaps, stains and uneven edges. Natural results that match your face and the rest of your teeth, and no more work than needed.
What cosmetic dentistry covers
Cosmetic dentistry fixes what bothers you when you smile: a chipped or worn edge, a gap, a tooth that is darker than the rest, a gummy smile. The tools are bonding, porcelain veneers, gum contouring and whitening, used alone or together.
Bonding is done in one visit. Veneers can be made and placed the same day in our office, so most cases need no temporary veneers and no second trip.
What we offer
Every case starts with a consultation and a written estimate with options at different price points.
Smile consultation
We look at your teeth, gums and face together and agree on what to change and what to leave alone.
Porcelain veneers
Thin porcelain shells that correct color, shape and small gaps. Same-day placement is available.
Gum contouring
Reshapes the gum line for a gummy or uneven smile, often combined with veneers or bonding.
Dental bonding
Tooth-colored resin repairs chips and small gaps in one visit, with little or no enamel removed.
Cost and insurance
Cosmetic treatment is generally not covered by insurance. We give a written estimate and discuss options at different price points before anything starts.
Payment plans are available: CareCredit, Sunbit, and in-house plans for larger treatments.
Dr. Kim's approach
Natural results that match your face and the rest of your teeth, and no more work than needed. Dr. Kim would rather do one veneer that disappears than six that announce themselves.
Why Happy Light Dental for your smile
Artistic skill and experience
Shape, color and proportion are judged by eye as much as by instrument; experience is what makes the result look like you.
Attention to detail
Edges, translucency and how the teeth meet the gum line decide whether cosmetic work looks natural.
Consultation first
You see the plan and the estimate before we touch a tooth, and your expectations drive the design.
Natural results
The goal is a smile people notice without being able to say why.
