Enhance your smile with personalized cosmetic dentistry.

Enhance your smile with personalized cosmetic dentistry.

Cosmetic dentistry is important for patients that maybe have a smile that they're not proud of, or maybe it isn't building confidence for them. So cosmetic dentistry is a great answer, a great solution for a patient that wants to improve their smile and would bring them joy to change their smile in a way. And that could be a number of things.

That could be simple orthodontics. We do clear aligner therapy at our office. Could be bleaching, could be, you know, certain crowns, could be veneers, could be just a simple bonding.

Actually yesterday, Dr. Kennedy helped me out with a little bonding on my front tooth. So that was great to have him help me out. And now I can smile with confidence.

Dentists are patients as well too. So we're happy to provide any cosmetic options for patients and just, you know, improve their confidence. We do plenty of bonding on front teeth that help any, you know, broken tooth just very minimally.

We do digital smile design where we work with a dental lab where we send digital models to them. We mock up what's possible for the patient. We can show them a physical model.

We can show them a digital model, but basically recreating their front teeth to make them confident and happy and make them have a huge smile that they've always been wanting. So there's plenty of different options and, you know, even adults, there's a lot of different biological and aesthetic components to orthodontics. So we greatly advise any patients that have some sort of frictional wear in the front tooth or their teeth are breaking just how they come down, come together rather, we think that that's a great option for them.

But then also, you know, straightening teeth is a nice aesthetic bonus for that as well. Before we start any sort of cosmetic work with the patient, we always want to be on the same page. So we want to make sure that we understand their expectations and what they would define as a successful outcome.

We're on the same team, and so we need to have that mutual understanding. If, for example, a patient is asking for something that physically isn't even capable of being accomplished with bonding or veneers because of how their bite is or, you know, how much force they can deliver, that's a problem. So that's something that you have to, you know, address up front.

But we're never going to recommend any outcome that's not going to be successful long term. So just we love to communicate with our patients and make sure that we can provide the best treatment for them.

Common Questions About
Cosmetic Dentistry

What can cosmetic dentistry do?

Cosmetic dentistry in the hands of a skilled dentist can take a worn, flawed smile and transform it into a masterpiece. It enhances teeth that are stained, chipped, pitted, gapped, uneven, crooked, worn, or misshapen - giving you a beautiful smile and new confidence to show others a full and genuine smile. Your dentist can go into detail about all your possible cosmetic dentistry options.

Is cosmetic dentistry worth it? 

Cosmetic dentistry can be life-changing for some patients. We have helped people who were once afraid to open their mouths become proud to show off their smiles. Your self-confidence is always worth investing in treatment that will help you feel comfortable with your appearance.

Does cosmetic dentistry improve oral health?

Cosmetic dentistry primarily focuses on enhancing the appearance of teeth and smiles. While it may not directly improve oral health, it can have indirect benefits. Procedures like teeth whitening, veneers, and orthodontic treatments can motivate individuals to take better care of their oral hygiene, leading to improved oral health habits. Cosmetic treatments can address issues like misaligned teeth or gaps, which may contribute to oral health problems if left untreated. Therefore, while cosmetic dentistry may not directly impact oral health, it can play a role in promoting overall dental well-being.

Going to Kennedy Dental was by far the best dental visit & consult I've had. I'm fairly dental phobic but Kassie explained everything she was going to do before hand & while she was cleaning my teeth as well. I have alot of broken & missing teeth in my mouth & hadn't been to the dentist in years. Dr. Kennedy was very nice & so personable. I actually have alot of hope now that with their help, I will have a healthy smile back soon. I am very grateful for Dr. Kennedy, Kassie & Nancy. They all made me feel much better. 😊

Always professional and kind! I have been a patient at Lombard Dental since 1996. Dr. Kennedy is always so patient with me as I have some anxiety at the dentist. His staff is so comforting and attentive towards me…. Always offering a blanket or emotional support. I left for a few years as my place of employment changed and I completely regret it…. But I am back now and so happy to be! Thank you, Kennedy Dental! If I could give you 10 stars I would! Rochelle Drakos

I had an absolutely amazing experience at Kennedy Dental. It was my first time visiting the dentist in awhile and the team was super helpful and responsive in answering my questions and scheduling an appointment online. The team addressed concerns I had with my teeth and showed genuine interest in my overall health. While I did purchase some oral care products, I didn't feel like they were pushing any services on me. I was very relaxed and afterward my mouth didn't ache like it does after walking out of some dentist offices. Money is always a concern, especially when not all health insurance covers dental care. The office has some great first-time patient specials and ongoing care plans for those who have to pay out-of-pocket. When I left I didn't realize how much time I had spent there, but they covered a lot of procedures from x-rays to pictures, cleaning, etc., but I was there for almost two hours. So if you're going there for a first-time visit I would just make sure you leave yourself enough time for the appointment. I definitely will be going back to them in the future.
