Cosmetic Dentistry
A confident smile is truly priceless, and our team can help you enjoy one through our variety of cosmetic dentistry services. Flaws like dental stains, minor cracks, gaps between teeth, and more don’t have to be permanent.
Lumibrite Chairside Whitening & Day White Take-Home
If your teeth have become stained or dull over time, there are several possible causes to blame — from diet to oral hygiene to simple genetics. What really matters is finding the best solution that can restore a healthy, happy glow to your smile.
At Wharton Dental, our team offers Lumibrite Chairside Whitening, which is safe, comfortable, and lightning-fast. Depending on your whitening needs, the treatment can be completed in as little as 30 minutes, and our patients will surely be grinning at the results.
Alternatively, Day White take-home whitening kits are available for patients who’d prefer to improve their smile in the comfort of their own home. We’ll provide the whitening formula and custom-molded oral trays — you simply need to wear both together twice each day for 30 minutes at a time. In addition to improving the brightness of your teeth, Day White has been shown to help rebuild tooth enamel and reduce tooth sensitivity as well.
Porcelain Veneers & Lumineers
Porcelain veneers are high-quality, customized restorations designed to be thin enough to fit over the front surfaces of certain teeth, effectively hiding years of flaws behind a new, beautiful outward appearance. Veneers are often a great cosmetic solution for patients who feel overwhelmed by the number of aesthetic flaws they’re facing — instead of undergoing multiple, time-consuming procedures, veneers can be completed in just a few appointments.
While traditional veneers are very effective in creating the dazzling results image-conscious patients are looking for, it’s important to keep in mind that they are a permanent solution. Because of this, our doctors also offer Lumineers as a no-preparation, reversible alternative that still provides beautiful and durable results.
Metal-Free Restorations & Direct Bonding
Our team understands that in today’s world, patients are looking for restorative solutions that promise aesthetic quality in addition to improved oral health. That’s why Wharton Dental primarily offers metal-free crowns, inlays, onlays, and other restorations that are designed with your unique smile’s look and color in mind. The ceramic material is so high in quality that it even reflects light in the same way as your natural enamel! They’re durable, comfortable, less irritating to gum tissue over time, and completely biocompatible.
Direct bonding (also known as cosmetic bonding) is a great, affordable treatment option for patients who need to repair small imperfections on their smile, such as chips or stains. During this procedure, one of our doctors will carefully apply composite resin to the affected area and sculpt an addition that looks natural before hardening it in place.
Frequently asked questions
How long do porcelain veneers last?
With good oral hygiene and regular cleanings, porcelain veneers typically last 10–15 years or more before needing replacement.
What's the difference between veneers and Lumineers?
Traditional veneers require a small amount of enamel removal and are considered permanent. Lumineers are ultra-thin and can often be bonded with little to no enamel reduction, making them a reversible option for many patients.
Will whitening damage my teeth?
When done professionally with supervision, no. The gels we use are well-studied and safe for enamel. Some people experience temporary sensitivity, which fades quickly.
