Why should I visit a cosmetic dentist?
A cosmetic dentist can help you achieve your dental goals and create your ideal smile. While some restorative dental procedures can improve certain aspects of your smile, cosmetic treatments are recommended by a dentist to specifically target aesthetic issues.
Dr. Porter offers a broad spectrum of dentistry treatments to target your specific concerns. Often, treatments can be interchangeable, such as bonding and veneers. Our dentist can recommend the best treatment based on your specific condition, preferences, and budget.
What treatments does Dr. Porter offer?
Porcelain veneers are thin ceramic shells that are placed on the front of the teeth to conceal imperfections. Using our in-office CEREC machine, we can often place same-day veneers.
Professional teeth whitening treatments are superior to store-bought options because they are stronger and work faster. We offer both in-office and take-home whitening treatments.
Our advanced tools and technology achieve the best results...
Dental lasers have transformed many treatments, such as gum reshaping and tooth recontouring, by allowing cosmetic dentists to increase precision and reduce discomfort.
For in-office whitening treatments, a special light is used to activate and expedite the bleaching process. You can whiten your teeth several shades in a single visit to our Charlotte, NC, office.
Dr. Porter can show you a digital preview of your dentistry treatment which is designed around your goals. Previewing your potential results allows you to identify any issues or improvements you would like to make to achieve your ideal outcome.

Are there any factors that can affect my candidacy for cosmetic dentistry treatments?
It is essential that the foundation of your smile is in good health before you begin cosmetic treatment. Your smile should be free of gum disease and decay. However, Dr. Porter provides comprehensive dental care at his practice so he can efficiently address any concerns.
While certain cosmetic procedures can treat oral health conditions such as cracks and dental misalignment, they may not always be sufficient. For instance, while Invisalign can straighten most patients' smiles, traditional orthodontics may be necessary for severe malocclusion. Likewise, porcelain veneers may not be recommended for a tooth that is significantly weakened by damage. Instead, a porcelain dental crown or even a dental implant may be the best option. During your dentistry consultation, Dr. Porter will perform an in-depth evaluation of your oral health and recommend the best treatment for your needs and goals.
Cosmetic dentistry sounds expensive...
Since insurance does not typically cover this type of dentistry, many patients are worried that it is a luxury they cannot afford. However, that is not the case. Several financing options can be applied to your treatment to reduce your overall out-of-pocket cost. In addition to CareCredit®, we also offer in-house financing. Additionally, Dr. Porter can tailor treatment to suit your budget, from more cost-effective materials to an alternative procedure.
