Q. Will my insurance cover cosmetic dentistry?

Every healthcare insurance provider is different. Some insurance companies will fully cover certain aspects of a cosmetic dentistry procedure, while others will only cover a percentage. However, some health insurance providers won't cover any costs at all, so check in with your specific provider to be sure the cosmetic dentistry procedure you are considering is covered within your budget.

Q. What is the difference between a general dentist and a cosmetic dentist?

A general dentist is trained in the standards of dentistry. These dentists can perform cleanings, fillings, examinations and minor procedures. A general dentist can become a cosmetic dentist with additional training. A cosmetic dentist can perform cosmetic dentistry procedures, such as teeth whitening, tooth bonding, veneers, dental implants, dentures and more.

Q. How long will it take for me to recover from a procedure?

The recovery time for different procedures varies. Minimally invasive procedures may have no recovery time needed, while other cosmetic dentistry can leave you sore or tender for a few days. If you need to be sedated for your specific procedure, you will need someone to transport you to and from the dentist’s office and stay with you for up to a day following the appointment. Your dentist will be able to provide you with more information about the recovery time of your specific cosmetic dentistry procedure, so reach out for additional details.
