Veneers
Veneers and Lumineers are thin, durable restorations that are designed to fit over the visible surface of teeth to conceal discoloration, damage, slight misalignment, and gaps. Both veneers as well as their less permanent counterparts, Lumineers, allow you to address a number of cosmetic flaws with a single treatment, helping you bring your dream smile to life without having to invest in several procedures.
Metal-Free Restorations
Do you have an outdated metal crown or filling that’s highly noticeable whenever you speak or laugh? These can not only alert everyone you talk with to the fact that you’ve had restorative dentistry done, but also put a spotlight on your treated teeth. Our team uses durable, natural-looking dental materials that can be custom-shaded to be virtually indistinguishable from your natural teeth, allowing you to smile with greater confidence.
Cosmetic Bonding
Dental bonding is another incredibly versatile cosmetic treatment that we offer at Premier Family Dentistry of Bloomfield. Using the same composite resin that we utilize to fill cavities, Dr. Abboushi can restore or improve the appearance of teeth that have been chipped or are misshapen or gapped. Due to the fact that composite resin is biocompatible, this procedure is minimally invasive yet offers results that can last for up to seven years with proper care.
Teeth Whitening
It’s estimated that over 50 percent of the population is unhappy with the color of their teeth. If the shade of your smile is a contributing factor to your lower self-confidence, teeth whitening is a cost-effective, fast way to provide yourself with a major confidence boost. We offer both take-home and in-office whitening treatment so you can choose the most convenient option for your schedule. Both treatments utilize highly effective and safe ingredients that can brighten your smile by up to eight shades.

BOTOX® Treatment
BOTOX injections are designed to address the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles that frame your smile. When muscles become stressed and bunched up due to overuse throughout the year, wrinkles form between the eyebrows, on the forehead, around the mouth, and in other areas. BOTOX can be injected into these muscles to help them relax and smooth out, minimizing the appearance of signs of aging and creating a more youthful glow.
Smile Makeovers
If you feel that you’re a good candidate for multiple restorative or cosmetic dental treatments, a smile makeover is a great, comprehensive way to address aesthetic and functional dental issues. Dr. Abboushi will collaborate with you to create a treatment plan that will fix all of your concerns, and it will consist of two or more of the services we offer. We’ll also create a plan that coincides with life events, making sure that you get your dream smile before important moments, like your wedding! We also use digital treatment software to show you what your smile will look like after your makeover, taking any guesswork out of the process.

Understanding the Cost of Cosmetic Dentistry
Most dental insurance policies don’t include cosmetic treatments because they are usually intended to enhance your appearance more than your oral health. It’s natural to wonder what you can expect to pay for your elective procedures, but it depends significantly on your unique situation.
Our team is happy to provide a detailed estimate after your initial consultation with Dr. Abboushi. Continue reading to learn more about how the cost is determined and how our office helps make these services more affordable!

Is Cosmetic Dentistry Worth the Investment?
Cosmetic procedures involve an investment of both time and personal resources, and it’s natural to wonder whether it’s worth it “just” to enhance your appearance. However, there are additional benefits that come with boosting your confidence that you might not have considered.
For instance, when you look and feel like the most attractive version of yourself, you are more likely to enjoy improved professional achievements, a more active social life, and better relationships.

Cosmetic Dentistry FAQs
Can My Child or Teen Benefit from Cosmetic Dentist?
The appearance of your smile plays a huge role on self-esteem. This is especially the case when you are young. Unfortunately, there are all sorts of ways that your child can accidentally crack, chip, or stain their teeth. Some treatments need to wait until adulthood, but other ones, like Invisalign, teeth whitening, and cosmetic bonding can sometimes be suitable for teens. During your child’s appointment with us, we can discuss the best options to meet their smile goals.
Is Cosmetic Dentistry Painful?
Many patients are hesitant to commit to treatment because they are worried that the procedure will be painful. The good news is that we will always do everything we can to make you feel as comfortable as possible in the dental chair. Most cosmetic treatments are not invasive, so you don’t even need a local anesthetic. For treatments like veneers and dental crowns, your teeth need to be reshaped, so your dentist will numb the area beforehand. You might experience some residual soreness or sensitivity, but this will be mild and temporary.
What Causes Tooth Discoloration?
There are a variety of reasons why teeth can become discolored. Here are some of the most common.
- Food & Beverages: Certain foods and beverages can move into the outer layers of your tooth structure, staining your teeth. Common culprits are tomato sauce, red wine, tea, coffee, and chocolate.
- Tobacco: Smoking and chewing tobacco can cause tooth discoloration. Additionally, the research found higher levels of dissatisfaction among smokers with how they look based on the appearance of their teeth.
- Age: As one gets older, their teeth can become more brittle, allowing for staining and yellowing.
- Injury: When tooth injuries are the root of the problem, the affected tooth can darken.
- Antibiotics: If you took antibiotics as a child, you may want to find out which ones you took. According to The Food and Drug Administration (FDA), there is a link between taking tetracycline antibiotics as a child and permanent tooth discoloration.
Is Cosmetic Dentistry Expensive?
Many people associate cosmetic dentistry with expensive treatments, but this doesn’t have to be the case. The costly reputation of cosmetic dentistry likely stems from the fact that cosmetic dental treatments are rarely covered by dental insurance. In most cases, patients have to pay for their treatment out of pocket. Improving your smile might seem costly at first, but you need to consider the investment that you are making in your self-esteem, confidence, and quality of life.
