Thinking about enhancing your smile? Cosmetic dentistry offers a wide range of treatments designed to improve the appearance of your teeth—while often boosting oral health and confidence along the way. At Meadowmont Dentistry in Chapel Hill, we help patients create smiles they’re proud to share. Here’s what every beginner should know before starting their cosmetic journey.

What Cosmetic Dentistry Includes

Cosmetic dentistry focuses on improving the aesthetics of your smile—such as color, shape, size, alignment, and overall symmetry. Unlike general dentistry, which emphasizes prevention and treatment, cosmetic care is all about achieving your ideal look.

It’s perfect for addressing:

  • Stained or discolored teeth

  • Chips, cracks, or worn enamel

  • Gaps between teeth

  • Slight misalignment

  • Uneven or irregularly shaped teeth

  • Missing teeth

Cosmetic treatments can be purely aesthetic or part of a full smile restoration.

Most Requested Treatments

At Meadowmont Dentistry, we offer a full menu of cosmetic services tailored to your needs:

  • Professional Teeth Whitening: Brighten your smile quickly and safely, with in-office or take-home options.

  • Porcelain Veneers: Thin, custom-made shells that cover the front of teeth to fix chips, stains, gaps, and more.

  • Dental Bonding: A quick, affordable way to correct minor imperfections with tooth-colored resin.

  • Invisalign Clear Aligners: Straighten your teeth discreetly—without metal braces.

  • Dental Implants: Permanent replacements for missing teeth that look and feel natural.

Many patients choose to combine services for a full smile makeover.
