Being confident in the look of your smile can make a huge difference in your life, from first impressions to day-to-day interactions. The cosmetic dentistry services we provide at Alpine Creek Dental are designed to enhance not just your appearance, but your confidence and quality of life.
Led by Dawson Academy-trained Dr. Hadley Thurmon and Dr. Krupa Patel who have several dental certifications, we take a personalized, artistry-driven approach to every cosmetic dental treatment, delivering transformative results that look and feel natural.
Cosmetic dentistry is both an art and a science that focuses on improving the look of your teeth, gums, and overall smile. These smile enhancements focus on the dental aesthetics that can help you feel more confident, such as tooth color, shape, chipped teeth, and symmetry. Through restoration, enhancement, and maintenance, cosmetic dental services help ensure optimal dental health and appearance beyond standard dental treatments.
There are a number of common concerns that we can address using our suite of cosmetic dental services. These concerns include:
No matter the concern, our experienced team can craft a solution tailored to you. From subtle enhancements to complete transformations, we approach each case with compassion, expertise, and attention to detail.
Your smile is unique to you. That’s why we offer a variety of cosmetic services to meet your individual needs, including:
Brighten your smile safely and effectively with our professional whitening solutions. Our take-home kits allow you to achieve a brighter smile from the comfort of your own home at a time most convenient to you. These teeth whitening methods are designed to eliminate years of stains and discoloration, helping your smile appear younger and more vibrant.
Veneers are ultra-thin porcelain shells custom-made to fit over the front surface of your teeth. Ideal for correcting chips, discoloration, gaps, and uneven shapes, veneers deliver a dramatic enhancement that looks completely natural. They’re durable, stain-resistant, and tailored for long-lasting aesthetics.
Cosmetic bonding is an efficient way to fix small imperfections. Using a tooth-colored resin, we can seamlessly repair chips, close gaps, and reshape uneven teeth, often in a single visit. Bonding blends beautifully with your natural teeth and requires minimal preparation.
If you have a “gummy” smile and are unhappy with its appearance, our gentle laser gum contouring procedure can help. This quick minimally-invasive treatment reshapes the gum line to reveal more of your natural teeth and improve overall balance.
A smile makeover is a comprehensive plan that combines multiple cosmetic treatments to fully revitalize your smile. If you’re getting ready for a major milestone or want a total transformation, we’ll create a personalized treatment plan to meet your goals.
Alpine Creek Dental has earned a reputation as the go-to destination for cosmetic dentistry in the heart of Elmhurst. We’re also proud to extend our services to individuals in surrounding areas such as Oak Brook and Villa Park. Our team brings decades of combined experience to every smile we transform. We always prioritize personalized care and integrity, taking time to understand each patient’s goals to provide only the treatments that are needed.
With cutting-edge technology such as digital smile design tools and intraoral scanning, we ensure your cosmetic enhancements are precise, natural-looking, and comfortable. Most importantly, we deliver this high-quality care in a warm, welcoming environment that makes every visit a positive experience.
Many cosmetic dental treatments aren’t covered by insurance because they’re considered elective. However, if a procedure also supports your dental function, it might qualify for partial coverage. Our team is happy to help you understand your benefits and work with your provider.
If we discover that your insurance doesn’t cover any of our cosmetic dental services, other options are available to you so you can enjoy the benefits of smile enhancements! We have an in-office plan that is potentially much more accommodating than insurance and multiple payment options.
Your journey to a more radiant, confident smile starts with a cosmetic consultation at Alpine Creek Dental. Whether you’re exploring a single service or a full smile makeover, our team will guide you with compassion and care. We invite you to experience the difference of a dental practice that prioritizes your comfort and long-term oral health.
Anyone looking to improve the look of their smile can be a candidate! Healthy gums and teeth are important, so a dental exam is the first step to determine your best options.
General dentistry focuses on maintaining oral health through cleanings, exams, and treating dental issues. Cosmetic dentistry enhances the appearance of your smile through services like the ones we provide at Alpine Creek Dental while still supporting your overall dental health.
Dental transformations can last for years, depending on the treatment and how well you care for your teeth. Regular dental visits and good oral hygiene help maximize longevity.
Some procedures, like teeth whitening, are reversible or fade naturally. Others, such as dental veneers or crowns, are permanent and may require future replacement rather than reversal.
