At Wetaskiwin Family Dental in Wetaskiwin, our cosmetic dental smile makeover patients believe that life-changing cosmetic dentistry is a valuable investment. Indeed, for most people, the value of a healthy, appealing smile cannot be measured in dollars. We recognize, however, that cosmetic dentistry is not cheap.

Do you have to spend thousands of dollars to improve your smile? Actually, no. Today’s post focuses on the most affordable cosmetic dental procedures.

Dental Bonding
In many cases, dental bonding can be used to fix a tooth that has been chipped.

When Tim Mahoney repairs a tooth with dental bonding, a pliable resin material is applied to the tooth. Doctor Mahoney expertly moulds the material to create the desired shape. The resin is then hardened using a special light. After hardening, Doctor Mahoney performs any needed trimming and shaping followed by a final polishing.

Dental bonding is usually less costly than porcelain veneers or dental crowns. Call us at 780-352-5113 to discuss cosmetic dental financing options.

Beware of brand-new Wetaskiwin area practices that advertise unusually low prices for dental bonding, veneers, or dental implants. The proficiency and artistic ability necessary to achieve minuscule tolerances should not be undertaken by a beginner. Thoroughly research any new cosmetic dentist near you who are considering cosmetic dental procedures or complete smile redesign.

Tooth Whitening
Most Wetaskiwin people are aware that there are several different tooth whitening protocols. Tim Mahoney recommends scheduling a tooth whitening consultation to discuss your options. Even inexpensive OTC tooth bleaching systems can be misused and result in tooth sensitivity, damage to tooth enamel, and uneven coloration.

Regarding the cost of teeth whitening: if you settle upon an at-home system from a drugstore, you may have to buy several packages to attain even slight whitening. In-office whitening or a take-home system from our office may be more competitively priced in the long run.
