Porcelain Veneers

- Instantly whiten your teeth
- Fix small chips and cracks
- Close obvious gaps

Each set of porcelain veneers is entirely custom-made, meaning they can give you everything from a minor touch-up to a complete smile makeover. It’s entirely up to you, and you can get them in as little as two visits.

Direct Cosmetic Tooth Bonding
This is one of the quickest and easiest treatments in all of cosmetic dentistry, and we can use it to fix small chips, cracks, or gaps in your teeth. Dr. Naini will simply apply a composite resin material to your teeth and use it to sculpt away any imperfections. After you’ve approved the final look, she can quickly harden the resin with a curing light. This procedure can usually be completed in under an hour without the need for local anesthetic.

Tooth Recontouring
If you have a tooth with a small chip or a shape that is unpleasing to the eye, tooth recontouring could be the answer to your problem. With this treatment, we can reshape a tooth so that it blends in better with the rest of your smile. In addition to enhancing your appearance, this procedure can also be used to improve the health and function of your smile as well, giving you the best of both worlds in just one appointment.

Gum Recontouring
Do you have a “gummy” smile, or do your teeth look a bit short and stubby? If so, it isn’t your teeth’s fault, it’s your gums! In order to give you that perfectly proportioned look, Dr. Naini can use a soft tissue laser to painlessly remove any excess gum tissue that is holding your smile back. She’ll gently shape it so that your teeth look fantastic, and thanks to the precision of the laser itself, this treatment will be quick, easy, and over before you know it.

Understanding the Cost of Cosmetic Dentistry
You don't have to be rich or famous to turn the smile of your dreams into reality. Many factors affect the cost of cosmetic dentistry in Vienna, but Dr. Naini strives to keep a stunning smile within everyone's budget.
Which Cosmetic Dental Service Is Right for Me?
There are many options to address common aesthetic concerns, like stains, chips, or gaps. Since no two mouths or situations are identical, there's no flat fee for elective services. Your cosmetic dentist in Vienna will examine your mouth and learn more about your goals to determine which procedures are right for you, which may include:
- Porcelain Veneers: Bonding veneers to the front surfaces of the teeth visible when smiling can improve many imperfections using a minimally invasive procedure. Your results can last for a decade or longer with the correct care, like brushing and flossing.
- Cosmetic Tooth Bonding: A composite resin is shaded to the color of enamel to blend in with your tooth when fixing minor imperfections.
- Teeth Whitening: Surface and age-related stains can get up to 8 shades whiter, with results that can last for many months or years, depending on your aftercare routine.
- Tooth Recontouring: Tooth recontouring can make your teeth look shapely and proportionate.
- Gum Recontouring: A soft tissue laser sculpts the gum line and enhances the size of teeth, perfect for treating a gummy smile.
Your dentist will review all your options to make the best decision to fit your needs and budget.
Cosmetic Dentistry Can Be an Investment Worth Making
Cosmetic procedures are often associated with vanity, but there are endless benefits attributed to a beautiful smile. Not only will you look and feel your best, but others will view you as youthful, successful, and confident. A pleasing smile can attract potential employers, which can lead to new job opportunities. Some aesthetic issues can also affect your dental health. Correcting them can lead to healthier teeth and gums. You'll preserve your natural smile and reduce your long-term oral health expenses.
How to Make Cosmetic Dentistry Affordable
After creating a treatment plan, we will provide you with an estimate, and a member of our team will explain the fees. They’ll also discuss your payment options, which include:
- Traditional Payments: Our office accepts all traditional payment methods, including cash, personal checks, and credit cards.
- Dental Insurance: It is uncommon for dental insurance to pay for elective services unless they are medically necessary. Many cosmetic procedures provide restorative benefits, like dental bonding. Your dental benefits may cover certain aspects of your treatment, like your consultation or preliminary procedures. We will work on your behalf with your dental insurance to maximize any applicable coverage.
- Financing: We accept third-party financing to pay any out-of-pocket expenses. You can pay for your new smile using a monthly payment plan with little or no interest based on your credit approval.

Cosmetic Dentistry FAQs
How do I Know if I Need Cosmetic Dentistry?
Potentially, anyone who isn’t 100% pleased with the way their smile looks in the mirror can benefit from cosmetic dental services. There are several options available to address one or several aesthetic concerns that detract from your appearance.
For instance, if you want a brighter grin, you can remove extrinsic surface stains with professional teeth whitening. Those who are frustrated by chipped, cracked, gapped, or somewhat crooked teeth can have veneers placed or undergo dental bonding to mask imperfections.
If you’re unsure whether cosmetic dentistry is right for you, the best way to find out is to schedule a consultation with Dr. Naini!
Is Cosmetic Dentistry Safe?
Many patients worry that elected services intended to improve their looks might do so at the cost of their dental health, but that’s not the case! As long as you’re receiving care from a licensed professional, most treatments are considered perfectly safe for a majority of people.
Although Dr. Naini is happy to help you boost your appearance, she will first examine your mouth to ensure there are no issues, like cavities or gum disease, that might interfere. That way, you can enjoy peace of mind knowing that your grin will be just as healthy as it is beautiful after your procedure.
Does Cosmetic Dentistry Hurt?
If you’re concerned that upgrading your appearance involves long and agonizing dental treatments, you can set your fears aside. Most cosmetic dental procedures are considered minimally invasive because they don’t involve needles or complex surgeries.
However, there are some instances in which you might develop some mild soreness or sensitivity, like if you’ve had enamel removed for veneers to fit correctly. Thankfully, the discomfort typically fades on its own after a few days and can be usually be addressed with over-the-counter meds like Tylenol or ibuprofen.
How Long Does Cosmetic Dentistry Last?
Undergoing cosmetic dental procedures often involves a personal investment of both time and resources because dental insurance policies typically don’t cover them. As a result, many patients want to know how long their results will last to determine whether it’s worth undergoing a desired treatment.
There’s no one answer because it depends on the service you received, and how well you care for your teeth. For example, professional whitening typically lasts anywhere from six months to three years, but it can be longer if you consistently brush and floss twice daily to remove plaque buildup. Other options, like porcelain veneers, can remain in place for 25+ years if they’re properly maintained.
