Porcelain Veneers
Whether you just want to enhance a single tooth or completely transform your smile, porcelain veneers can do it. This treatment involves placing thin ceramic restorations over the front of the teeth, and porcelain veneers act like masks to improve someone’s appearance as well as hide flaws like stains, chips, cracks, and gaps. They are always custom-made to suit a patient’s facial shape, skin tone, and tastes, and it only takes two appointments to get them.

Metal-Free Dental Restorations
For patients in need of smile repair, all-porcelain restorations offer the best of everything. They are just as strong and durable as their gold and silver counterparts, but they also feature a natural appearance that recreates the look of real enamel perfectly. After you get one, the only people who will be able to tell which tooth isn’t original will be you, Dr. Mosby or Dr. Caldwell! With the proper care, these restorations can be trusted to last for decades to come.
Dental Bonding
Bonding is a cosmetic dentistry method of tooth repair that has been used for years to correct cracks, chips, and misshaped teeth. Dr. Mosby and Dr. Caldwell use a composite resin to build up the problem tooth, then buffs away the excess material until the tooth has the perfect shape and color. Direct bonding is very strong and can create a beautiful smile free of minor imperfections. The bonding does not discolor like your natural teeth, so Dr. Mosby or Dr. Caldwell may recommend touch up whitening to keep the perfect color continuity.

Understanding the Cost of Cosmetic Dentistry
Since each smile is unique, there isn’t a flat price when it comes to cosmetic dentistry in Kingwood. Don’t worry though – that doesn’t mean that understanding the cost is going to be a hassle. In fact, it’s as easy as scheduling a consultation with our team! If you’d prefer to do a bit more research first, then keep reading to learn a few important cost-related factors.
Which Cosmetic Dental Service Is Right for Me?
Naturally, one of the biggest factors that will influence the final cost is the smile-enhancing treatment you select. Three sought-after, effective, and safe options are:
- Veneers – Veneers can last for 20+ years, can address a variety of dental imperfections, and are custom-made for each patient. These benefits do come with a higher upfront price, but they may end up being the most cost-effective in the long run.
- Dental Bonding – Dental bonding, on the other hand, is usually on the lower end in terms of cost. It’s ideal for correcting minor imperfections (like small gaps and chips), and the results don’t last quite as long as veneers.
- Teeth Whitening – More mid-range when it comes to price, professional teeth whitening is reliable, convenient, and superior to over-the-counter products. Plus, customized treatment plans will ensure your bright, white teeth are restored in no time!
Why Cosmetic Dentistry Is an Investment Worth Making
If you’re still contemplating whether or not cosmetic dentistry in Kingwood is right for you, it’s worth noting that it’s much more than an investment in your smile. Will addressing dental imperfections enhance your appearance and boost your confidence simultaneously? Sure! But investing in your smile also has other benefits. To start, multiple studies have shown that those with beautiful smiles are viewed as younger, make better first impressions, and are more likely to receive a job offer. Plus, if you’re using cosmetic dentistry to address misaligned, brittle, or chipped teeth, then there is a good chance it will benefit your oral health too.
How to Make Cosmetic Dentistry Affordable
Does your dental insurance provider not cover cosmetic dentistry? Luckily, there is another option: CareCredit. This third-party financier has helped millions of patients get the dental care they desire without the financial stress. Instead of paying for your treatment in one lump sum, you choose a payment plan that best suits your budget. Since some options include little-to-no interest too, achieving the smile of your dreams is more affordable than ever before!
Cosmetic Dentistry FAQs
Are you ready to love the smile you see in the mirror? Your cosmetic dentist in Kingwood can help you achieve your dream smile. While you want to enhance your teeth, it’s normal to have several questions before you’re ready to commit to a treatment. Dr. Mosby will take the time to address them during your initial consultation. In the meantime, here are the answers to a few of the most common questions we hear to put your apprehensions to rest.
What are common cosmetic treatments?
Nowadays, you have more options than ever to get the exact smile you want. Continual improvements in dentistry provide various solutions to correct your aesthetic concerns while also creating natural-looking results. Depending on your individual treatment plan, you might benefit from:
- Porcelain veneers
- Metal-free dental restorations
- Dental bonding
- At-home teeth whitening
- Smile makeovers
What procedures will I need?
Dr. Mosby will perform an extensive examination and discuss the results you want to achieve. He may recommend one or more procedures to address your cosmetic imperfections. If you have several concerns, like chips, cracks, and discoloration, porcelain veneers can correct multiple issues using just one treatment. Porcelain veneers are a popular choice because they hide a variety of flaws in as few as 2 appointments.
How much does cosmetic dentistry cost?
There isn’t a set fee for cosmetic dentistry because the price is determined by your specific treatment plan. We’ll provide you with a custom estimate during your consultation and discuss the costs associated with it. We offer several options to pay for your new smile. Besides traditional methods, we also accept third-party financing with CareCredit. Our office will help you find the solutions you need to invest in a beautiful smile without breaking the bank.
Can I use my dental insurance?
In previous years, it was unheard of for a dental insurance carrier to cover cosmetic treatments. While it’s still rare, there are some instances you can use your coverage. Certain cosmetic procedures also provide restorative benefits, like all-ceramic crowns. If a treatment is deemed necessary for your oral health, like a metal-free crown, your insurance may cover a portion of the cost; however, if it only provides aesthetic benefits, your policy likely won’t pay for it. We will work on your behalf with your insurance company to file the necessary forms for reimbursement. If you have any remaining balance, we’ll discuss your payment options.
How long will my results last?
Our office uses the latest techniques and materials to ensure long-term results. Depending on your treatment, your new smile can last for a decade or longer, such as veneers or metal-free crowns. No matter the procedure, there are several things you can do to protect your investment, such as:
- Maintain your oral hygiene at home.
- Visit your dentist at least twice a year.
- Wear an athletic mouthguard if you play sports.
- Don’t use your teeth as tools.
- Don’t chew on inedible objects.
- Don’t bite overly hard foods.
- Don’t smoke or use tobacco.
