Frequently Asked Questions
Are cosmetic dental procedures painful?
Many cosmetic procedures are virtually painless and your dentist will apply a local anesthetic as needed. This will ensure that you feel no discomfort while Drs. Brown or Baran work on your smile. While you may feel some sensitivity during the recovery period, this usually subsides on its own and can be managed with over-the-counter pain medication.
How can I fix my chipped tooth?
Drs. Brown and Baran can fix the look and function of your chipped teeth with several cosmetic treatments, including dental bonding and porcelain veneers. Both of these procedures are fast and virtually painless, providing you with a natural-looking way to cover up dental imperfections. During your initial consultation, our team will assess your smile to determine which cosmetic treatment works best for your case.
How much does cosmetic dentistry cost?
The exact cost of your cosmetic dentistry treatment will depend on a number of factors. This includes what procedure you’ll be undergoing, what dental issues are being corrected, and the current state of your oral health. Our team will work with you to develop a personalized treatment plan to help achieve the smile of your dreams and give you an accurate cost estimate during your consultation.
Will my insurance cover a cosmetic dental procedure?
While most insurance companies likely won’t cover your cosmetic procedure, our Wilmington and Seaford practice recommend contacting your agency anyway to get an accurate understanding of your coverage. During your appointment with your dentist, they’ll provide you with an accurate estimate of your treatment cost.
