Learn About VeneersWe offer both in-office whitening for same-day results and custom take-home trays for gradual whitening on your own schedule. Both options use professional-grade whitening gel that delivers results far beyond anything you can buy at a store.

Most purely cosmetic procedures, such as teeth whitening and veneers, are not covered by dental insurance, as they are considered elective. However, some treatments that also have a restorative benefit (like bonding to repair a chipped tooth) may qualify for partial coverage. Elevated Smiles Dentistry offers financing options to help make cosmetic care accessible at our Bel Air, MD practice.

A smile makeover is a personalized combination of cosmetic procedures designed to address everything that bothers you about your smile in one coordinated plan. There is no fixed recipe. Dr. Englander looks at the color, shape, alignment, and proportions of your teeth as well as how they relate to your overall face, and recommends a plan that makes sense for your specific goals. Most adults who are in reasonably good oral health and have realistic expectations are excellent candidates for a smile makeover.
Cosmetic dentistry at Elevated Smiles Dentistry can address stained or yellowed teeth, chipped or cracked teeth, gaps between teeth, teeth that are too small or uneven, slightly crooked teeth that do not require full orthodontic treatment, old metal fillings you would like replaced with tooth-colored ones, and a gummy smile. During your consultation, Dr. Englander will take photos, review your concerns, and discuss the options that make the most sense for your situation before recommending anything.
The cost depends entirely on which treatments you choose and how many teeth are involved. Teeth whitening starts at a few hundred dollars. Veneers typically range from ,200 to ,500 per tooth. A complete smile makeover will be priced as a full treatment plan based on the specific procedures involved. Most cosmetic procedures are not covered by dental insurance.
