Are You a Good Candidate for Cosmetic Dentistry in Cary?

Cosmetic dentistry works best when your underlying oral health is in good shape. During your consultation, Dr. Tucker reviews your teeth, gums, and bite to make sure any treatment will look great and hold up long-term.

Good Candidates Typically Have
  • Healthy gums with no active gum disease
  • Sufficient tooth enamel for veneers or bonding
  • Realistic goals for color, shape, or alignment
  • A stable bite with no unmanaged grinding
  • Good oral hygiene and commitment to aftercare
  • Teeth that are chipped, stained, gapped, or worn
We May Recommend Treating First
  • Active cavities or untreated tooth decay
  • Gum disease that needs to be resolved first
  • Significant bone loss affecting tooth support
  • Severe bite misalignment needing orthodontic care
  • Teeth clenching without a night guard in place

If underlying issues exist, Dr. Tucker will lay out a treatment sequence so cosmetic work lands on a healthy foundation. Many patients address both at the same visit since New Day Dental offers general, restorative, and cosmetic care under one roof.

Frequently Asked Questions About Cosmetic Dentistry in Cary, NC

How much does cosmetic dentistry cost in Cary, NC?

Costs vary by treatment and case complexity. As a general guide, professional teeth whitening typically ranges from $500 to $850, porcelain veneers from $1,500 to $2,000 per tooth, same-day CEREC crowns around $1,400 to $1,850, and Invisalign from $2,700 to $7,200 depending on alignment complexity. The most accurate figure comes from your consultation, where Dr. Tucker reviews your specific goals and provides a detailed treatment plan with clear cost estimates.

Does dental insurance cover cosmetic dental procedures?

Most purely cosmetic procedures like teeth whitening and veneers are not covered by standard dental insurance plans. However, some treatments that also serve a functional purpose, such as crowns or dental implants, may receive partial coverage. At New Day Dental, we accept all major PPO plans and are in-network with Delta Dental and Blue Cross Blue Shield. Our team verifies your benefits before treatment and helps you maximize any coverage available. Patients without insurance can use our VIP Membership Plan for meaningful discounts on care.

How long do cosmetic dental results last?

Results vary by procedure. Professional whitening typically holds well for one to three years before a touch-up may be needed. Porcelain veneers and CEREC crowns generally last ten to fifteen years or longer with proper care. Dental bonding may need refreshing every three to seven years. Dental implants can last a lifetime for the implant itself, though the crown on top may eventually need replacement. Regular checkups, good oral hygiene, and avoiding habits like grinding or chewing ice all extend the lifespan of cosmetic work.

Will my cosmetic dental work look natural?

Yes. Modern porcelain and composite materials replicate the translucency, texture, and color variation of natural tooth enamel. At New Day Dental, each restoration is shade-matched to your neighboring teeth and facial features so results blend in seamlessly. Dr. Tucker uses digital imaging during the planning phase so you can see what to expect before any treatment begins. Patients commonly report that even close friends and family cannot tell which teeth have had cosmetic work done.

Is cosmetic dentistry painful?

Most cosmetic procedures involve minimal discomfort. Teeth whitening may cause temporary sensitivity for a day or two. For veneer placement, crown preparation, or bonding, the area is numbed first and most patients feel pressure rather than pain during treatment. Sedation options are available for patients who experience dental anxiety or are undergoing longer procedures. Any post-treatment soreness is usually mild and manageable with over-the-counter pain relievers.

What is the difference between cosmetic and restorative dentistry?

Cosmetic dentistry focuses on improving how your smile looks, even when the teeth are functionally healthy. Procedures like whitening, veneers, and cosmetic bonding fall here. Restorative dentistry focuses on repairing teeth to restore function and health, including fillings, crowns, implants, and dentures. In practice, the two often overlap. At New Day Dental, Dr. Tucker approaches all restorative work with cosmetic principles in mind, so repaired teeth not only function well but look natural within your smile.
