Cosmetic Dentistry
Teeth that are crooked, stained, or chipped can make you feel self-conscious.
Cosmetic dentistry can address these aesthetic concerns and restore your confidence.
Premier Dental & Implant Center in Orland Park, IL, offers several cosmetic dentistry treatments to help you achieve a pristine smile.
What is Cosmetic Dentistry?
Cosmetic dentistry is a type of dentistry that focuses on the appearance of your teeth, mouth, and gums. Cosmetic treatments such as veneers and teeth whitening address various cosmetic concerns to enhance the overall appearance of your smile.
Cosmetic Dentistry Can Rejuvenate Your Smile
Tooth imperfections and discoloration are enough to make anyone feel insecure about their smile. We can solve aesthetic issues such as:
The Benefits of Cosmetic Dentistry
Straight teeth will be less vulnerable to dental decay and gum disease. Dental crowns can protect and support vulnerable teeth. Combined with consistent dental care like brushing, flossing, and regular checkups with your dentist, cosmetic dentistry can improve your oral health.
An attractive smile can seriously boost your self-confidence. The more confident you are, the more likely you are to excel at work, in your relationships, and in virtually every part of your life. Our dentist can recommend dental care treatments tailored to your unique needs and smile goals.
Misaligned teeth can make chewing hard foods difficult and can eventually lead to jaw pain and sensitivity. Patients with missing teeth may not be able to eat crunchy foods at all. After your treatment in Orland Park, you will be able to eat a wide variety of foods again, allowing you to enjoy a more balanced diet.
Cosmetic dental procedures can also act as preventative dentistry care. Crowded or crooked teeth are more prone to uneven wear and tear, and can also be harder to clean, leading to tooth decay and gum disease. Undergoing corrective dental treatment can prevent these issues and the costly treatments to correct them.
Cosmetic Dentistry Can Redefine Your Smile
Dental solutions like braces and dental bonding can correct and conceal flaws in your teeth, giving you the confidence to show off your smile. Here's what orthodontics can do for our patients:

I had to get a filling on my LL and was able to see Dr Amy for it! As someone who has dental phobia, she was so patient and gentle with me. It didn’t take long and even the numbing wore off in a timely manner. Great assistant, great doctor, and great environment. Will return :)

Teeth Whitening
Teeth whitening with our dentists can remove stains and discoloration more effectively than over-the-counter teeth whitening products. A powerful LED lamp activates the whitening gel, producing dazzling results after just one treatment. Our dentistry treatment has proven results, with teeth becoming up to eight shades lighter after just one visit.
Traditional Braces
Traditional braces are a time-tested method for correcting misalignment and creating a straight, stunning smile. This dental procedure can also fix gapped teeth, crowded teeth, overbites, and underbites. If left alone, misaligned teeth can cause teeth grinding and temporomandibular joint disorder (TMJ), leading to damaged teeth and jaws.
What About Missing Teeth? Dental Implants Can Fill in the Gaps
If you are missing teeth, it's likely your biggest cosmetic dental concern. Having gaps in your smile can take a significant toll on your self-image, not to mention your ability to eat and speak comfortably. Sound familiar? Dental implants may be just what you need.
Dental implants are prosthetic tooth roots. They anchor in the jaw and provide stable, durable support for restorations like crowns, bridges, or dentures. Our restorations are made of premium materials that balance strength, functionality, and appearance. They are built to last for years and can be shaded to match your precise natural tooth color, guaranteeing a natural look in your smile.
Dental implants and restorations offer wonderful cosmetic benefits, but their oral health benefits are also remarkable. Because implants are anchored in the jawbone, they can provide important stimulation that keeps the bone healthy and strong. This helps prevent issues like shifting teeth, further tooth loss, and changes to your facial shape due to jaw atrophy.
At Premier Dental & Implant Center in Orland Park, you can take advantage of dental implant options for all degrees of tooth loss. Whether you're missing one tooth or all your teeth, we can get you back on track to a beautiful and fully functional smile with dental implants.

View on GoogleConcerned About Costs?
Because dental insurance plans do not cover cosmetic treatments, some patients may feel that these services are inaccessible. We do not want financial barriers to prevent patients from achieving a stunning smile. Our practice accepts CareCredit®, which allows patients to pay for their treatment in low-interest monthly installments.
Candidates for Cosmetic Dentistry
Not everyone is an immediate candidate for cosmetic dentistry. During your initial consultation at our office in Orland Park, your dentist will examine your mouth and discuss your goals to determine if cosmetic treatments are right for you. Good candidates for cosmetic dentistry include patients who:
Are in Good Oral Health
You must be in good oral health and free from gum disease and tooth decay. This is to ensure a healthy foundation for your cosmetic treatments. Our dentists offer comprehensive dental services to help you qualify for cosmetic dentistry treatment.
Have Cosmetic Dental Issues
Cosmetic dentistry focuses on the appearance of your smile. Patients with issues that impact their oral health and function need to undergo restorative treatment before undergoing cosmetic enhancements to their smile.
Are Ready to Invest in Their Smiles
Dental insurance plans do not cover cosmetic dentistry treatments. However, we accept financing options to help make cosmetic treatments more affordable and accessible.
Nervous About Visiting the Dentist? Add Calming Sedation to Your Cosmetic Plan
It's completely natural to feel anxious about going to the dentist, whether due to fear of pain, difficulty sitting still, or many other common reasons. In fact, studies have shown that anywhere from 50 to 80% of Americans experience some level of dental anxiety. However, thanks to sedation dentistry, you can say goodbye to fear and discomfort.
We offer oral conscious sedation and IV sedation, both of which bring about feelings of deep relaxation that help treatments fly by. In combination with local anesthetic, it's likely you won't feel a thing as your dentist gets to work on your cosmetic enhancements.
Though most cosmetic dentistry treatments are gentle and minimally invasive, we'll be happy to provide sedation for any procedure. To learn more about how sedation can improve your treatment experience, book a consultation at our Orland Park office. You can contact us online or call us at:

I recently had a complicated Dental implant procedure performed by Dr. Akhras, and I couldn't be happier with the results. Dr. Akhras and his team were incredibly professional, knowledgeable, and attentive throughout the entire process. They took the time to explain the procedure and answer all my questions, which put me at ease. The whole procedure was painless and went smoothly.

Honestly best dentist I’ve ever been to hands down! I have had fillings, root canals, and crowns and I’m lucky I came to this establishment. Dr. Lagesse is everything you look for in a dentist, friendly, always smiling and outgoing, makes sure your comfortable, taking some extra time to make sure it’s just right, I love how she doesn’t rush it at all.
View on GoogleFrequently Asked Questions About Cosmetic Dentistry
Do cosmetic dentistry treatments hurt?
No. Some treatments, such as teeth whitening and porcelain veneers, are practically painless. For treatments that require significant alteration of the tooth, like dental crowns, your Orland Park dentist will numb the area first to ensure you are completely comfortable before your procedure begins. We also offer sedation options for an added level of comfort for those who need it.
How much do cosmetic dentistry treatments cost?
This will depend on a variety of factors, such as which dentistry procedure you have received, how extensive your dental concern is, and if you require any preparatory treatments. For example, teeth whitening will cost less than porcelain veneers, and one veneer will cost less than multiple porcelain veneers. During your initial consultation at our Orland Park office, your dentist will craft a custom treatment plan. We will then be able to provide you with an accurate quote so you can plan and budget.
How long will cosmetic dentistry treatments last?
This depends on the type of treatment you have received and how well you maintain your smile. With proper care and maintenance, porcelain veneers and dental crowns can last for up to 15 years or more. For those who undergo orthodontic treatment, if you wear your retainer, your results can last a lifetime.
Can I combine restorative and cosmetic dentistry treatments?
This depends. Before undergoing most cosmetic procedures, you must be free of oral health concerns such as tooth decay and gum disease. If you're concerned about the appearance of your smile but need restorative care, your dentist may be able to include cosmetic dentistry treatments as part of your complete restorative treatment plan to transform your smile.
