Explore what could change and what it would take.
Cosmetic dentistry covers anything from lightening natural teeth to straightening, reshaping or replacing them. Some changes are quick and conservative, while others are permanent and involve several appointments. Knowing the difference helps Hillcrest patients decide how far they want to go and what upkeep they are prepared for.
Every option below begins with an assessment at our Port Dover office. The dentist checks the health of your teeth and gums first, then talks through which treatments suit your goals, how long they take and how results are maintained.

Cosmetic dentistry questions
Have a question about your situation? Our team can help you plan a visit.
Which cosmetic treatment is least invasive?
Whitening, minor reshaping and bonding usually remove little or no tooth structure. Veneers and crowns involve more preparation. The dentist will explain how each option affects your natural teeth so you can choose with that in mind.
Should I whiten before getting bonding or veneers?
Usually, yes. Whitening only lightens natural teeth, so new restorations are matched to your shade at the time they are made. Completing whitening first helps everything match. The dentist will suggest a sensible order.
Can a cosmetic plan be spread out over time?
Often it can. Many people start with one step, such as whitening, and decide on further treatment later. The dentist can explain which steps depend on others and how timing may affect your final result.
