Enhance Your Smile With the Right Treatments

At Packard Dental, our cosmetic services are designed to enhance the appearance of your teeth and give you a beautiful smile. Whether you want to make a minor change or a significant one, our dentists will help you find the right treatments for your needs.

We'll discuss all your possible options and take time to answer your questions. Improving your smile is a big decision, and we want you to feel good about it!

We offer teeth whitening to brighten your smile with in-house treatments or professional take-home kits. Dental veneers give you a flawless smile with standard or minimal-prep options custom-crafted using porcelain or ceramic e.max.

Tooth bonding corrects minor imperfections such as chips, gaps, or discoloration with a quick and painless solution. For more seriously damaged teeth, your dentist will repair your tooth with a dental crown, and with CEREC, you can get your crown in a single visit.

Discover How to Improve Your Appearance

Teeth contouring fixes uneven or slightly overlapping teeth with a simple procedure. You'll find several orthodontic solutions, including clear aligner treatments and ceramic braces, and your dentist will discuss which is suitable for you.

Using advanced laser technology, we can gently reshape your gumline to improve the symmetry and balance of your smile. For a complete makeover, digital scans, mock-ups, and careful planning will ensure your satisfaction.

We use preventive measures to stop gum recession, and for more advanced cases, we'll refer you to a trusted periodontist.

No matter which treatments you pursue, our team will put you at ease with compassionate care. You'll appreciate the soothing music and beautiful ocean views at our office.

You can also relax with pillows, blankets, and warm towels. If you're especially nervous, you can receive sedation.

  • Digital scanners for easy impressions of your teeth
  • Laser technology for comfortable gum care solutions

Common Questions About Cosmetic Dentistry

How will cosmetic dentistry improve my smile?
Cosmetic dentistry in the hands of a skilled dentist can take a worn, flawed smile and give you something beautiful. It enhances teeth that are stained, chipped, pitted, gapped, uneven, crooked, worn, or misshapen. You'll gain new confidence to show others a full and genuine smile. Your dentist can go into detail about all your possible cosmetic dentistry options.
How long will my cosmetic dental work last?
Some cosmetic dental treatments, such as gum reshaping and teeth contouring, are permanent. However, most cosmetic treatments are temporary and need to be repeated to maintain your beautiful results. The duration of each treatment can vary, from several months for teeth whitening to more than 10 years for veneers. During your initial consultation, your dentist will explain how long the solutions will last.
How do restorative and cosmetic dentistry differ?
Restorative dentistry focuses on repairing damaged teeth and replacing missing teeth. Cosmetic dentistry is used to improve the appearance of teeth that are overall in good shape. There is some overlap between these two types of dentistry, though. Restorative treatments will often give a patient a more attractive smile. Certain cosmetic services such as tooth bonding can repair small dental damage.

I went to Packard Dental to have various dental issues resolved. My most recent visit was to fix a broken tooth. Dr. Joy, DDS and Jennifer, Technician , did an excellent job putting on a crown. The procedure was explained to me in detail. The preparations using x-rays and digital photos went smoothly. I was comfortable throughout the procedure thanks to the local anesthetic. The tooth was prepped, painlessly, and once the crown was made on their state-of-the-art machine Dr. Joy and Jennifer installed it on my tooth, restoring function and appearance. I look forward to returning to the Packard Dental team. Great work. Top-tier! William C. Levenson Carlsbad, CA
