Porcelain Veneers
When it comes to completely transforming the smile, nothing does it better than porcelain veneers. With this one simple procedure, we can:
- Instantly whiten the teeth
- Fix chips and cracks
- Close gaps
- Make small or misshapen teeth look uniform
- Straighten slightly rotated teeth
These extremely thin porcelain coverings fit directly onto the front of the teeth and resemble real enamel in every way. They are always custom-made according to a patient’s specifications, and you can get one for a single tooth or an entire set to achieve a brand new smile.
Metal-Free Dental Restorations
Whenever we repair a tooth that shows when a patient smiles, we don’t just want to restore its strength, but its beauty as well, and that’s why we only use metal-free restorations. These crowns, bridges, inlays, and onlays are made of 100% zirconia, a high-quality ceramic. With it, we can create a restoration so lifelike that even our patients have trouble telling them apart from natural teeth! In the end, these make it seem like nothing was ever wrong with your smile.
Dental Bonding
Want to get rid of that one pesky stain, chip, or gap that has bothered you for years? With direct bonding, Dr. Cowell can make it disappear in just about an hour. He’ll start by applying a color-matched composite resin to build up any damaged/missing enamel, and then he’ll literally sculpt it into the perfect shape and size. After hardening it with a curing light, you’re done! It’s just that simple. This treatment is fast, painless, and the results can be trusted to last for 10 years or more.
Smile Makeover
If you’re struggling with a minor imperfection like a chipped tooth, you may be able to achieve your dream smile in as little as one hour thanks to dental bonding. But what if you’re dealing with several dental flaws? Are your smile goals out of reach? Thanks to completely personalized smile makeovers, the answer is no! Our cosmetic dentist in DeLand can streamline your treatment so you get the beautiful results you deserve as quickly and safely as possible.

How Do I Know If I Need Cosmetic Dentistry?
If you’re unhappy with the look of your smile, then you’re a potential candidate for cosmetic dentistry! Cosmetic dentistry has many different applications, all focused on improving the appearance of your teeth and gums. Issues like staining and discoloration, chipped or cracked teeth, gaps between teeth, misshapen or misaligned teeth, and more can all be easily addressed with a variety of innovative solutions. Upon scheduling a consultation with us, we can discuss your smile goals and map out a cosmetic treatment plan that’s certain to get your smile back on track.
Is Cosmetic Dentistry Expensive?
Most people assume that cosmetic dentistry is expensive, but that doesn’t necessarily have to be the case. Even though cosmetic dental work is rarely covered by dental insurance, there are still ways to lessen the financial burden including financing options from CareCredit. In some cases, cosmetic dental work that also offers long-term oral health benefits might be partially covered. Improving the look of your smile might seem expensive at first but given that it’s an investment in your self-esteem, confidence, and quality of life, the end result is well worth the cost.
Does Cosmetic Dentistry Hurt?
Some patients are hesitant about the prospect of any type of dental work due to concerns about pain. However, most cosmetic dental treatments are so comfortable and relatively painless that an anesthetic isn’t even necessary. Other treatments, such as veneers, usually require your mouth to be numbed since your teeth must be slightly reshaped—but while there might be some residual soreness or sensitivity, it’s very mild and temporary. Your comfort is our top priority during your procedure, so you don’t have to worry about pain at all!
