Cosmetic Dentistry FAQ

What can be done to make my teeth look better?

Teeth Whitening is almost always a part of the procedure. Dental Veneers are used to cover damaged or mis-shaped teeth. Dental Bridges or dental implants can fill in unsightly gaps.

But the exact steps to give you a perfect smile depends completely on your situation. We have one of the most versatile and experienced cosmetic dentists in San Antonio who will be overseeing your dental experience. Dr Moore has extensive experience in cosmetic dentistry and correcting damaged teeth with porcelain veneers and with using Invisalign (invisible braces) to correct crooked or misaligned teeth. These are both non-invasive procedures. In fact, Dr Moore has gone to great lengths to understand and apply non-invasive techniques in cosmetic dentistry.

Some cosmetic dentists will tell you that all kinds of invasive stuff is needed. Don’t do it without coming to us first! We are experienced at using the Non invasive cosmetic dentistry techniques. We know you don’t like it so we don’t do it!

Take Invisalign for example. Invisible braces that can be used to correct a wide range of problems. San Antonio has many dentists and cosmetic dentists. But Dr. John Moore is San Antonio’s first dentist using cosmetic dentistry who has been recognized by Invisalign as an Elite Provider of Invisalign. Why is that? Because in all of our fair city, Dr. Moore has extensive experience at using the invisible braces. Cosmetic Dentistry is not just what gets taught in school. It comes from actually correcting thousands of people’s teeth and giving each one a fabulous smile. If you have any doubts about this, see our San Antonio Cosmetic Dentistry Smile Gallery. This is a great way to see what a cosmetic dentist in San Antonio can do for you.

How Can I Be Sure My Smile Will Still Look Natural?

Once your work by our dentist using cosmetic dentistry is completed, your smile will be more natural than it was. Older fillings can be replaced and carefully matched to your exact teeth color after teeth whitening. Cracks and chips in your teeth will be repaired. A lot of what is done by a cosmetic dentist is just repairing damage, though we change the shape and alignment of teeth when that is needed, all to make your teeth look completely natural. The whole point of cosmetic dentistry is that your teeth look perfect and that includes natural. If you can tell that you had dental work done, then you didn’t get it done here.

How Expensive Is Cosmetic Dentistry?

The cost depends entirely on your situation and how many corrective steps are needed. However we work hard to keep costs down by having our own in-house lab (one of the very few cosmetic dentists in San Antonio that do) and we also work with you to ensure you get as much insurance coverage as possible and the best possible financing for the dental work needed.

How Long Does Cosmetic Dental Work Take?

Teeth Whitening takes only an hour or two. Other work can take one or two visits. In the case of alignment where braces are needed, we use Invisalign which is very gentle and the treatment is done over a period of several months.
