Hales Corners
Cosmetic Dentist

Cosmetic dentistry is usually relatively affordable, but this depends on the cosmetic treatment you choose. Some cosmetic treatments like teeth whitening and dental bonding are inexpensive, and are a good option even if you’re on a tight budget. However, other treatments like porcelain veneers can be quite a bit more expensive.
‍
The needs of each patient are different, so it’s not possible to provide you with an accurate cost estimate for cosmetic dentistry without seeing you for a consultation. If you’re wondering how much you may need to pay to restore your smile in Hales Corners, Muskego, Franklin or New Berlin, Dr. David Keeling can help.
‍
At your cosmetic consultation, Dr. Keeling will walk you through all of the options that you have for cosmetic dentistry at DK Dental Care, and help you choose the right treatment based on your oral health, your desired smile, and your budget.

Wondering why you should bother with cosmetic dentistry? Cosmetic dentistry from DK Dental Care has a number of benefits. 
First and foremost, it’s a great way to restore your self-confidence. If you have major cosmetic issues with your smile like stained teeth, gaps in your smile, or uneven/crooked teeth, you might feel self-conscious when you smile, laugh or even eat among others.
‍
Cosmetic dentistry can provide you with the boost in self-confidence that you need. You can get a beautiful, bright and picture-perfect smile in just a few short appointments at DK Dental Care, and smile proudly once again. Since teeth stains and other such cosmetic issues are also associated with advanced age, cosmetic dentistry can also rejuvenate your appearance and make you look younger.
‍
Not only that, but cosmetic dentistry can also have positive effects on your oral health. Some cosmetic treatments can help create a straighter, more even smile, which makes it easier for you to brush and floss your teeth. 
‍
In addition, once you’ve invested in cosmetic dentistry, you’re more likely to brush and floss regularly to keep your smile bright and beautiful, which helps prevent cavities and gum disease. For all of these reasons, cosmetic dentistry from DK Dental Care is a great investment in your smile. 

At DK Dental Care, we offer a wide variety of cosmetic treatments including:

• Teeth whitening – Teeth whitening is affordable and offers fast results, eliminating teeth stains and yellowing. We offer custom-made take-home whitening kits that are inexpensive, and are tailored specifically to your level of staining and desired level of whiteness.
• Dental bonding, shaping & contouring – Dental bonding is a cost-effective way to treat issues like gaps in your smile, uneven teeth, and misshapen teeth. Along with shaping & contouring (enameloplasty) it can be used to completely restore your smile.
• Veneers – Veneers are more expensive, but offer long-lasting, versatile results. These wafer-thin shells of porcelain are made to fit over your existing teeth and cover up the fronts of your teeth, and can cover up almost any cosmetic imperfection.

At DK Dental Care, we offer take-home whitening kits that are built to provide you with professional-grade results in your own home. During your consultation, Dr. Keeling will take impressions of your teeth and create a set of customized dental trays that fit the contours and shapes of your smile perfectly. Then, we will provide you with professional-grade whitening agents and instructions for take-home care.
‍
You will simply apply the whitening compound to your custom trays as instructed by Dr. Keeling and brighten your smile on your schedule in the comfort of your own home. Take-home whitening has a number of benefits. It’s convenient, and you won’t have to spend as much time in the dentist’s chair. The results are more gradual over a period of time, which tends to look more natural than in-office treatments. With take-home whitening, nobody needs to know that you’ve had cosmetic treatment!

Veneers are small, thin pieces of porcelain that are designed to fit perfectly over your teeth and replace the front chewing surface. They can be used to treat almost any cosmetic flaw, from severe stains to slight gaps or small chips.

Because veneers are made of porcelain, they can be made to match the color of your natural teeth and they are indistinguishable from the rest of your smile. They are also very durable and stain-resistant, and require no special care beyond brushing, flossing, and regular six-month checkups at DK Dental Care.

Dental bonding is a non-invasive dental procedure that can be used to restore your smile and treat cosmetic flaws like gaps, stains, chipped, or misshapen teeth. Dr. Keeling will apply a tooth-colored dental resin to your tooth, then sculpt it into the desired shape. Next, the resin will be hardened using UV light and the result is a shapely, aesthetically pleasing tooth. The entire process typically only takes one appointment, it is non-invasive, and treatment requires no removal of your tooth enamel.
‍
Shaping and contouring are also often used alongside bonding. These procedures are used to remove small amounts of enamel from the surrounding teeth, making your smile look more even, straight, and appealing.
