Veneers
Dental veneers are thin, durable sheaths that are individually designed for teeth that are damaged, discolored, misspaced, or slightly misaligned. They’re typically made from porcelain or ceramic that are customized to match the shade of your natural tooth enamel and secured over your prepared, affected teeth. Once cemented onto the teeth, veneers act to erase imperfections and reveal a beautiful, confidence-boosting smile that can last for up to 25 years.

Metal-Free Dental Restorations
We offer metal-free dental crowns and fillings that can repair teeth that have been affected by decay and damage, providing them with strength, support, and an aesthetic appeal. We typically utilize ceramic like Emax and LiSi, which is a wear-resistant veneering material that can continue looking like new, even with regular use and wear-and-tear. For cavity fillings, we utilize a tooth-colored, biocompatible material called composite resin, so no onlookers will be able to tell which of your teeth have been treated.
Cosmetic Dental Bonding
Even minor chips and gaps within the smile can have an immense impact on your confidence. Many people are hesitant to get them addressed, because they believe that the only options available to repair the damage are invasive. However, cosmetic dental bonding is a quick, cost-effective, and minimally invasive solution to minor dental damage, gaps, and discoloration. Within a single appointment, based on the extent of the imperfections you’d like to address, our team can repair flawed teeth and give you a smile worth showing off.

Invisalign Clear Aligners
Gone are the days where your only option to address orthodontic issues is to commit to years of having metal brackets and wires in the mouth. At Homestead Dental, we offer a discreet, more comfortable, and convenient solution to misalignment, crowding, gaps between teeth, and even bite problems, called Invisalign clear aligners. These virtually invisible orthodontic trays are designed to place a strategic, gentle amount of pressure on targeted areas of the mouth to help shift your teeth into their ideal alignment.

Teeth Whitening
Are you tired of investing money in over-the-counter teeth whitening products, like toothpastes and strips that aren’t providing you with the results you’re hoping for? Our cosmetic dentists offer PolaDay take-home teeth whitening kits that are safe for your smile as well as highly effective. They contain additives that help minimize plaque formation and sensitivity following treatment, making them a trusted and go-to solution for patients who have stained and discolored teeth.

Gum Recontouring/Crown Lengthening
If your smile is disproportionately overtaken by pink gum tissue, overshadowing your beautiful pearly whites, you may be able to benefit from gum recontouring. This one-time procedure that offers permanent results can help expose more of your dental structure by removing overgrown soft tissue. We use a soft tissue laser to do this, which allows us to make the process as quick, safe, and painless as possible.
Dermal Fillers
You can look years younger without needing surgery. Dermal fillers can add volume to your facial features to turn back the clock. You can enjoy lasting improvement with a regular maintenance plan to treat wrinkles, scarring, and many other issues.

Virtual Smile Design
We take a unique approach to dental treatment planning, including using digital technology to help you visualize your results, as well as curating your treatment to enhance and complement your overall facial appearance and features. During your cosmetic dentistry consultation, our team can take a digital, photo-realistic color scan of your mouth that we can alter to show you what your smile will look like before and after your procedure. This takes all of the guesswork and gambling out of committing to moving forward with cosmetic dentistry.
Smile Makeovers
Dr. Cote is a highly skilled cosmetic dentist who loves to help patients achieve their best possible smiles. He has ample experience completing full smile makeovers and full mouth reconstructions, restoring both the function and form of complete mouths. Based on your smile goals, treatment timeline, and budget, our team can create a customized plan to rejuvenate your grin that can include two or more of our offered restorative or cosmetic dentistry services.

Which Cosmetic Service is Right for Me?

Depending on your budget and needs, you may be able to benefit from any one of our popular services listed below:
- Veneers: While veneers tend to be a more costly treatment, they can address a wide variety of cosmetic flaws at once, and your results can last for well over a decade with good oral hygiene.
- Metal-Free Dental Restorations: Metal-free dental restorations offer the same durability as metal ones, but a longer lifespan. The good news is that these are often at least partially covered by many dental insurance plans.
- Dental Bonding: Dental bonding is cost-effective and fast, offering noticeable results that can last for upwards of seven years with good dental hygiene.
- Invisalign Clear Aligners: Offering permanent results, Invisalign clear aligners tend to be about the same price as traditional metal braces.
- Teeth Whitening: Teeth whitening is another popular cosmetic treatment that we offer because it’s incredibly cost-effective and provides results that can last for between six months and a year.
- Gum Recontouring: Offering permanent results, gum recontouring can change the way you view your smile for good by making it more symmetrical.
- Smile Makeover: For those who are looking to make bigger changes or have complex restorative and cosmetic needs, a complete smile makeover can combine two or more of any of our services to help you meet your goals.

Cosmetic Dentistry FAQs
Is cosmetic dentistry safe?
Cosmetic dentistry, so long as it’s administered by a knowledgeable and trained professional, is perfectly safe for patients who are good candidates. Of course, it’s important to keep in mind that not every patient may be a good candidate for every treatment that we offer, which is why our dentists like to complete a consultation before administering treatment. For less extensive procedures, like teeth whitening, this may be done during the same appointment! However, for other procedures, an additional visit may be necessary to determine your candidacy.
How do I know if I need cosmetic dentistry?
The best way to tell if you need cosmetic dentistry is to assess how you feel about your smile. There’s always room for improving one’s smile, but that doesn’t mean that it’s necessary. However, if you find yourself fixating on dental damage, discoloration, or other aesthetic imperfections, cosmetic dentistry is likely a great option for you! Our team can help you determine what treatments we can provide you to boost your confidence and improve your day-to-day life.
How long does cosmetic dentistry last?
How long your cosmetic treatment results last depends on two main factors: the type of procedure you receive and your oral hygiene habits. Below, we’ve included a list of services that we offer, as well as the lifespan of the results they provide:
- Teeth whitening results can last for between three and six months before needing to be touched up.
- Veneers can last for over 20 years.
- Gum recontouring offers permanent results.
- Invisalign offers permanent results with diligent retainer use.
- Dental bonding can last for up to five years on average.
- Metal-free restorations can last for up to 15 years.
What causes teeth to become stained?
Dental discoloration is one of the most common aesthetic flaws that our patients come to see us about. Teeth can become stained for a number of reasons, including lifestyle habits, genetics, and even side-effects of certain medications or treatments. Whether your yellowing smile is caused by smoking, the foods you eat, or it’s just a sign of aging, our professional take-home PolaDay teeth whitening kit can help dramatically brighten your smile.
It utilizes high-quality ingredients that are able to penetrate deep dental stains and contains additives that also help fight against plaque formation and dental sensitivity. The result is a smile that’s up to eight shades brighter, all within about two weeks of use!
