What is Cosmetic Dentistry?
Cosmetic dentistry is a form of oral care that focuses on improving the appearance of your teeth, bite, and smile. Common examples of this service include teeth whitening, veneers, bonding and crowns, and orthodontic treatments like Invisalign.
Our dental care team will take the time to address problems like tooth decay, gum disease, or severely damaged teeth before we perform aesthetic care. We don’t want to compromise your cosmetic treatments. Dental problems can affect the integrity and longevity of your results. Once you’re in good oral health, our team will build a custom smile makeover plan to address all your needs and concerns.
Cosmetic Dental Treatments at Premier Dentistry at Millennium Park

Our list of cosmetic treatments will fix cosmetic blemishes on your teeth to enhance your smile. You’ll meet with Dr. Brand to discuss what you like and dislike about your smile. Then, she’ll help you decide the best treatments for your unique issues.
Invisalign
Dr. Brand is a Chicago Invisalign provider. She’s proud to give patients straighter teeth and a balanced bite with clear aligners.
Invisalign is a discreet and easier alternative to traditional metal braces. This is because it uses a series of clear plastic aligners that’ll gradually straighten teeth over time. Traditional metal braces can pinch the gum tissue surrounding teeth and take much longer to straighten them.
Invisalign patients can take their clear aligners out to eat and brush their teeth, so there’s no dietary restrictions. To learn more about our Invisalign services, visit Invisalign.
Porcelain Veneers
Porcelain dental veneers are a cosmetic solution that covers damaged and discolored teeth. We’ll take dental impressions of your teeth during treatment so that the veneers fit you perfectly. The dental lab will fabricate the veneers to the specific shape, size, and color we provide.
Once the veneers are complete, we clean your teeth and bond the veneers to them as naturally as possible. Because porcelain reflects light, it offers a more natural look than other compounds. To see if you qualify and to learn more about our veneers process, visit Porcelain Veneers.

Teeth Bonding
Tooth bonding is a quick and easy solution to cosmetic problems like chipped, cracked, and stained teeth. Dr. Brand can complete your tooth bonding procedure in just one visit to our Chicago, IL, dental office. It uses tooth-colored materials that Dr. Brand cures onto your tooth. To learn about how our teeth bonding treatment works, visit Teeth Bonding.
Teeth Whitening
Do you have stained, darkened, dull, or yellow teeth? In-office professional teeth whitening is one of the quickest and most efficient ways to brighten your teeth. We can complete an in-office whitening treatment in about an hour. Our office also offers custom-made teeth whitening trays. You wear the trays daily at home to whiten your teeth on your own time.
Both treatment types require only one visit to our office. To learn more about our professional teeth whitening services, visit Teeth Whitening.
Botox
Botox is a treatment that uses a toxin to paralyze muscles temporarily. It smooths out wrinkles and fine lines, making skin look younger. Patients can expect quick treatments with minimal downtime. Your results will typically last several months.
Besides cosmetic uses, Botox can also help with issues like migraines and excessive sweating. For more information on our Botox treatments, visit Botox.

Frequently Asked Questions
If you’re considering cosmetic care but have questions, start here. We welcome you to read answers to common questions about cosmetic dentistry in the Chicago loop.
What is a smile makeover?
A smile makeover is a way to improve both the health and appearance of your smile using a combination of dental treatments. During your visit, Dr. Brand will carefully check your teeth, gums, and overall oral health.
After the exam, she will create a personalized plan to help you get the smile you want. This plan takes into account factors like tooth color, shape, size, and alignment, as well as your overall dental health.
How do I care for my teeth after cosmetic procedures?
You want to make your cosmetic dental work last as long as possible. The best way to do this is to brush and floss every day. Use a soft toothbrush and fluoride toothpaste that isn’t too gritty or abrasive. Make sure to floss at least once a day and use mouthwash to help prevent plaque.
Also see Dr. Brand regularly. She can check that your teeth and any cosmetic work are still in great shape. Try to avoid habits that could chip or damage your teeth, like chewing on hard objects. If you play sports or grind your teeth at night, wear a custom mouthguard to protect your teeth.
Why is cosmetic dentistry important?
Cosmetic dentistry is important because it can improve the way your smile looks and boost your confidence. Many people feel self-conscious about problems like stained, chipped, or crooked teeth. These issues can affect how they feel around others and sometimes even hold them back at work or in social situations.
Cosmetic dentistry gives you the chance to fix the parts of your smile you don’t like. When you improve how your teeth look, you can feel more confident and enjoy social interactions.
Can cosmetic dentistry fix crooked teeth?
Yes. We offer several cosmetic treatments that can straighten teeth. Invisalign is an excellent and discreet treatment if you want to avoid metal braces. We can also use tooth bonding as a quick fix to make teeth appear straighter. But porcelain veneers can hide just about any cosmetic blemishes.
How does the cosmetic dentistry process work?
Cosmetic dentistry starts with the dentist analyzing the mouth and listening to the patient’s concerns. Next, Dr. Brand can create a treatment plan to address those concerns. Last, she’ll create aesthetically pleasing results by performing those treatments. Dr. Brand may need to use general or restorative treatments along with cosmetic treatments to get the desired results.
What is the most popular cosmetic dentistry treatment?
The most popular cosmetic dentistry treatment is teeth whitening. Many people want to brighten yellow teeth or remove stains from coffee, tea, or tobacco. Our professional whitening treatment is safe and effective. Bright teeth are one of the quickest ways to improve how your teeth look.
How long do cosmetic dental treatments last?
The length of time your treatment results last depends on the type of treatment and how you care for your teeth. Veneers are very durable and can last 10 to 15 years or more with good oral hygiene. Our porcelain veneers last longer than other types because they resist stains. Bonding is a faster and less expensive option. It usually lasts 3 to 10 years before it may need touch-ups.
Invisalign will last for years if you wear your retainer to keep your teeth in alignment. Teeth whitening is temporary, lasting anywhere from several months to a year. How long whitening lasts depends on habits like drinking coffee, tea, or smoking.
Can cosmetic dental procedures improve my oral health?
Yes. While this branch of dentistry focuses on aesthetics, it also offers health and functional benefits. For example, straightening your teeth with Invisalign improves your bite and oral health.
It can be hard to reach between crooked or overlapping teeth. Harmful bacteria can build up between teeth and increase your risk of tooth or gum infections. Straight teeth are easier to clean.
Restoring teeth with minor damage using dental veneers or bonding will prevent further damage. Your other teeth can damage injured teeth when you bite and chew.
