Are cosmetic dental procedures painful?

Most cosmetic procedures are designed to be comfortable and can be performed using local anesthesia to minimize discomfort. Many patients report little to no pain during and after procedures.

Is sedation dentistry ever used in cosmetic dental procedures?

Yes, in some cases. While sedation is more associated with restorative dentistry due to the non-invasive nature of most cosmetic services, different levels of dental sedation can be used for veneer placement and dental bonding, especially for patients who experience moderate to severe dental anxiety.

How long do results from cosmetic treatments last?

The longevity of results depends on the procedure and individual oral care habits. With proper care, whitening can last from six months to two years, while veneers and bonding can last over a decade.

Is cosmetic dentistry covered by insurance?

Insurance coverage for cosmetic dental procedures varies significantly. While some procedures might be partially covered if they provide health benefits, most purely aesthetic procedures typically are not covered. Our Dental Care Group office staff can help you understand your insurance benefits and explore financing options.

How can I maintain my new smile after cosmetic work?

Maintaining your new smile involves regular dental check-ups, good oral hygiene practices, and possibly avoiding certain foods that can stain or damage your teeth. Our South Florida dentist will provide specific recommendations based on your treatments.

“My experience with Dr. K and Marly has been incredible! They are amazing, so gentle, informative and sweet! When I first got to the office they told me Dr. K was the best doctor ever and they weren’t lying! Everything he does is with the upmost care and dedication. Marly is incredibly sweet and kind, she is so accommodating and a joy to work with. I also had the chance to see the dental hygienist Veronica and she was also amazing. 10/10 would recommend to anyone that wants to have any type of dental work done.” – Maria P.
“I had my first cleaning with Claudia today. I could not be more satisfied. She tackled my challenging teeth with patience and incredible skill. I usually experience lots of discomfort during cleanings but with Claudia I did not have any whatsoever. She knew what to do to get excellent results and all without any pain. She did not use any numbing medication. Look no further. She is a gem and the Dental Care Group in Pembroke Pines is lucky to have her. Thank you, Claudia! You are truly the BEST!!” – Dario M.
