Fort Worth Cosmetic Dentistry
Cosmetic Dental Care
If you wish you had a whiter, straighter, and more dazzling smile, our Fort Worth dental office can help. Dr. Tillman has years of experience with cosmetic dentistry and offers a variety of popular services to create beautiful, natural-looking results. If you hesitate when you smile, or you struggle with self-confidence, let us talk to you about what a smile makeover can help you accomplish.
Our cosmetic services include:
Invisalign
Invisalign is a cosmetic braces system that can help you achieve a straight, beautiful smile without the need for metal braces. Instead, it uses a series of trays to help you move teeth into their ideal position. If you have been putting off orthodontic care because you didn’t want to wear traditional braces, let Dr. Tillman talk to you about the benefits of Invisalign.
Teeth Whitening
If you hide your smile because of embarrassing stains, teeth whitening will create a whiter smile for you. With chairside bleaching or an at-home whitening kit, Dr. Tillman can help you dramatically improve the appearance of your teeth, so you’ll feel more confident. Which option is most right for you? We would be happy to discuss your options during a consultation visit at our Fort Worth office.
Veneers and Lumineers
Veneers and Lumineers both use thin pieces of high-quality dental porcelain to help you hide flaws like stains, cracks, chips, and even misalignment. They are placed over the front of teeth to create natural-looking results that are stain-resistant and long-lasting. The only difference is that porcelain veneers are permanent and require the removal of some surface material from your teeth. Lumineers are thinner and can be removed later if you decide to return to your natural smile.
Understanding the Cost of Cosmetic Dentistry
Which Cosmetic Dental Service is Right for Me?
In cosmetic dentistry, the main aims are usually whiter teeth, straighter teeth, or differently-shaped teeth. Still, the field’s treatments differ in their exact effects and prices; you can’t expect the same results from each one. If you want care that justifies the cost, you should compare the procedures beforehand.
Here at Dr. Tillman’s office, we happen to offer the following:
- Teeth Whitening – Teeth whitening uses a special bleaching gel to brighten enamel, often by six to eight shades. It takes the form of in-office treatment or take-home kits, which rely on distinct methods for similar results.
- Veneers & Lumineers – Normal veneers are small, tooth-sized shells placed on the fronts of teeth, used to hide a wide range of smile flaws. Meanwhile, Lumineers are less expensive veneers that can be placed quickly but look more transparent.
- Metal-Free Dental Crowns – Unlike those made of metal amalgam, metal-free crowns both protect your teeth and enhance their looks. These dual boosts to health and appearance can make the caps slightly expensive.
- Invisalign – Invisalign is a set of clear aligner trays that can straighten a patient’s crooked smile. However, it’s also a big commitment that can cost thousands of dollars in the long run.
Cosmetic Dentistry Is An Investment Worth Making
Though it may look costly upfront, cosmetic dentistry is a great long-term investment. You can trust its treatments to offer excellent perks and savings over time.
Remember, having a stunning smile should boost your quality of life. Knowing your grin looks gorgeous will help you feel self-assured, confident, and worry-free each day. That way, you can mingle with friends and family while trusting your looks, as well as form stronger connections with others.
At the same time, cosmetic dentistry can even pay for itself. The pretty smile it provides will lead to good first impressions in the workplace, career success, etc. As a result, your treatment could lead to a higher income that “pays off” its cost.
How to Make Cosmetic Dentistry Affordable
Even without dental insurance, it’s possible to make cosmetic dentistry more affordable. You can always rely on Dr. Tillman’s payment options for some help! Here at our practice, we provide the following aids:

Cosmetic Dentistry FAQs
Will My Insurance Cover Cosmetic Dentistry?
Generally, dental insurance does not cover elective procedures, including cosmetic dentistry. However, if you are interested in a treatment that improves both the appearance of your smile and your oral health, your insurance may decide to cover the cost. For example, a same-day CEREC crown can, in many cases, meet both of these criteria. As a result, your insurance carrier may elect to provide coverage. We can always discuss your level of insurance coverage in greater detail at your consultation.
How Much Does Cosmetic Dentistry Cost?
The price of cosmetic dentistry varies from treatment to treatment. It also depends on the extent of the necessary treatment. Procedures like teeth whitening are typically among the most affordable options. Other procedures like Invisalign and porcelain veneers are a bit pricier, but they offer multiple long-lasting benefits that can keep your smile beautiful for years to come.
During your consultation, we can go over a more detailed and accurate estimate of how much it will cost to achieve your desired results. We can also help you apply for CareCredit, which will help you finance the cost of your treatment in budget-friendly monthly installments.
Is My Teenager Eligible for Cosmetic Dentistry?
Dr. Tillman would be more than happy to take a look at your teen’s smile and discuss their goals for how they want their pearly whites to look. There are many cosmetic procedures that may benefit your teen. Even if they don’t yet have all of their permanent teeth, they may still benefit from certain procedures, like teeth whitening to really make their smile shine.
Is Cosmetic Dentistry Right for Me?
In general, if you are dissatisfied with some aspect of the teeth you see smiling back at you in the mirror, you might be a good candidate for cosmetic dentistry. However, because cosmetic dentistry is designed to only improve the appearance of your smile, we must first make sure that you don’t have any structural dental flaws. This means that if you have issues like cavities or gum disease, we must treat those problems prior to undergoing cosmetic treatment.
