What is cosmetic dentistry?
Cosmetic dentistry aims to enhance the appearance of your smile by repairing damage, discoloration, and other common dental complaints.
While restorative and preventive dentistry can also improve the way your teeth look, cosmetic dentistry focuses exclusively on correcting aesthetic concerns that hold you back from feeling comfortable with your smile.

What are some common cosmetic dentistry treatments?
Nunn Family Dentistry performs a variety of cosmetic dentistry treatments, including:
Teeth whitening
The practice uses the Opalescence™ whitening system for quick, dramatic teeth whitening results. They offer several treatment options, including take-home trays with a special blue light for at-home whitening. Nunn Family Dentistry also offers chairside laser teeth whitening to take years off your smile in a single visit.
Bonding
Bonding involves applying a soft form of composite resin to repair chips, cracks, gapped teeth, and other common tooth problems.
Veneers
Veneers are wafer-thin shells of porcelain that bond to your teeth to change their shape, size, or color. They blend in with the natural shade of your teeth and can give you a polished, uniform celebrity smile.
White fillings
Amalgam (silver) fillings can make your teeth look dark and metallic. They can also irritate your mouth if you have a metal allergy. White fillings blend in with your teeth to repair decayed portions while preserving the natural appearance of your tooth.
Crowns
Dental crowns are tooth-shaped caps that restore the size, color, and shape of a damaged tooth. Nunn Family Dentistry offers CEREC® same-day crowns for your convenience.
Full mouth rehabilitation
A full mouth rehabilitation, or smile makeover, is a customized plan that addresses more than one cosmetic dental concern.
