Cosmetic Dentistry

Are you unhappy with the appearance of your smile? Do you drink coffee, wine, or tea and notice your teeth look discolored? Cosmetic dentistry may be your answer!

Your smile is one of your most valuable assets, and at Advanced Dentistry Northwest, we believe everyone deserves to feel confident when they smile. Cosmetic dentistry offers a range of treatments designed to enhance the beauty of your teeth and overall smile.

From teeth whitening and porcelain veneers to clear aligners and composite bonding, Dr. Chen, our cosmetic dentist in Bellevue, works closely with you to create a personalized treatment plan that fits your unique goals and lifestyle.

Enhance Your Smile with Composite Bonding

Composite bonding is a minimally invasive cosmetic treatment that can help you achieve the smile you've always wanted. Dr. Chen tailors each treatment to meet your specific needs so you can enjoy the healthier, more attractive smile you've always wanted.

Benefits of Cosmetic Dentistry

Cosmetic dentistry is more than just improving the look of your smile—it can boost your confidence and enhance your overall oral health. At Advanced Dentistry Northwest, our treatments are designed to give you natural-looking results that help you feel great about your smile. Here are three key benefits of cosmetic dentistry.

Improved Confidence

A bright, healthy smile can make a huge difference in how you feel about yourself. Whether it's whitening, veneers, or bonding, cosmetic dentistry gives you the confidence to smile freely.

Enhanced Functionality

Many cosmetic treatments—crowns, bridges, and aligners—improve the appearance of your teeth and also restore their function, making it easier to eat and speak comfortably.

Long-Lasting Results

Cosmetic dentistry offers durable, lasting solutions that improve both the look and health of your teeth. With proper care, you can keep your smile looking great for years to come.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long do teeth whitening results last?

Teeth whitening results vary based on several factors; however, they generally last several months to a year. The factors that impact teeth whitening results include:

Your oral care habits, like brushing and flossing
The type of whitening treatment you choose
Lifestyle factors like diet

Professional Whitening vs. Over-the-Counter Products

At Advanced Dentistry Northwest, Dr. Chen offers professional-grade teeth whitening solutions that deliver more dramatic and longer-lasting results compared to over-the-counter products. Treatments like in-office whitening or take-home kits can brighten your teeth by several shades and typically last longer because the formulas used are stronger and more effective. In general, results from professional whitening can last anywhere from six months to two years, depending on how well you care for your teeth afterward.

Factors That Affect Longevity

To keep your smile bright, it’s important to maintain good oral hygiene by brushing, flossing, and scheduling regular dental cleanings. Additionally, avoiding stain-causing foods and beverages—such as coffee, tea, red wine, and tobacco—can help preserve your whitening results. Dr. Chen may also recommend touch-up treatments with take-home whitening trays to extend the life of your brighter smile.

Porcelain Veneers for a Perfect Smile

Ever wonder how celebrities have picture-perfect smiles? Many of them have porcelain veneers! Porcelain veneers are an excellent option for patients looking to transform their smile completely. These thin, custom-made shells cover the front surface of teeth and conceal imperfections like chips, gaps, and discoloration.

Clear Aligners in Bellevue, WA

Clear aligners offer a discreet, comfortable way to achieve a perfectly aligned smile. These custom-made, removable trays gently shift your teeth over time and are perfect for adults and teens looking for a low-maintenance way to improve their smile.

Tooth-Colored Fillings: Metal-Free and Natural

Tooth-colored fillings restore the tooth's function while maintaining its appearance, so you can smile without worrying about visible metal fillings. Plus, tooth-colored fillings preserve more natural tooth structure!

Porcelain Crowns and Bridges

Dr. Chen offers custom-made porcelain crowns and bridges for more extensive tooth damage or missing teeth. Crowns restore damaged teeth by covering them with a protective cap, while bridges replace missing teeth by anchoring them to neighboring teeth. Both options are designed to blend with your natural teeth and restore your smile's appearance and function.

Inlays and Onlays for Dental Repair

Inlays and onlays are custom-made restorations used to repair teeth that have suffered moderate damage. An inlay fits inside the grooves of the tooth, while an onlay covers a more significant portion, including the cusps. Both options are made from durable porcelain and are designed to match the color of your teeth, and they provide a functional and aesthetic solution for damaged teeth.
