Cosmetic dental treatments can range from a simple teeth whitening session to a dramatic smile makeover with porcelain veneers. At Sweet Tooth Dentistry, we provide quality cosmetic dentistry in Towson, MD.
Dr. Kevin Welinsky or Dr. Jay Shires begins every smile makeover with a complete oral exam and a conversation about your goals. That exam allows us to develop a custom treatment plan that meets your wants and needs. We need to know where we’re going before we can take the right road to get there. Cosmetic dentistry is part of the comprehensive dental services we provide to new and existing patients in Towson, Maryland.

Cosmetic Dentistry Services in Towson, MD
Our cosmetic dentists offer many cosmetic dental procedures you need to brighten, straighten, repair, and enhance your natural smile. We offer the following treatments in our Towson dental office.
Invisalign
The Invisalign clear aligner system is an orthodontic treatment that will straighten your teeth without braces. You will wear a series of aligners that will slowly move your teeth into the proper position. The treatment is a discreet and more comfortable alternative to metal braces.
Porcelain Veneers
Dental veneers are ultra-thin ceramic shells that we bond to the front of a tooth to change its appearance and hide any imperfections. Porcelain veneers are a popular cosmetic dentistry treatment we use in smile makeovers. We recommend veneers for one or more teeth in your smile line.
Teeth Bonding
Tooth bonding is an affordable treatment that can also transform your smile. Our dentist will apply a tooth-colored resin material directly to the tooth and then shape it by hand. This treatment is more affordable and faster than veneers, but results don’t last as long.
Tooth Whitening
Professional teeth whitening solutions are the simplest way to instantly brighten your smile. We offer both in-office and at-home whitening options for you to choose from. Professional tooth whitening offers better results than store-bought options and is still affordable.
White Dental Fillings
If you have a cavity, you need a tooth filling to seal and protect your tooth from further infection. Dr. Welinsky uses white dental fillings instead of metal fillings for aesthetic purposes. This way, the filling will blend in with your smile and look natural.
Dental Implants
Dental implants are a long-lasting solution for missing teeth. They act as artificial tooth roots made from titanium. Implants also support crowns, bridges, or dentures, and look and function like natural teeth. Tooth implants offer a stable foundation for replacement teeth.

Cosmetic Dentistry FAQs
Do you want to learn more? Our office is here to help. Learn more with answers to these common questions about cosmetic dentistry in our Towson, MD, dentist office.
Will dental insurance cover cosmetic dentistry?
In most cases, no. Dental insurance focuses on preventive care and treating common dental problems and diseases. It typically does not cover cosmetic treatments.
However, if you have a structural issue that needs treatment, insurance may cover part of the cost. Our Towson dental office accepts CareCredit, which can help you pay for cosmetic treatment.
How long will my cosmetic treatment take?
The length of your cosmetic treatment will depend on the type:
- Teeth Whitening: One visit
- Dental Bonding: One visit
- Veneers: 2 to 3 visits
- Invisalign: 1 year
We’ll give you an estimate of your treatment time after an exam.
What does cosmetic dentistry fix?
We can fix many problems with cosmetic dental care in our Towson office:
- Stained teeth
- Crooked teeth
- Uneven teeth
- Gaps in between your teeth
- Yellow teeth
- Bite issues
If you have a specific cosmetic concern, book a consultation to see how we can help you.
Is cosmetic dentistry affordable?
We offer many cosmetic treatments at different price levels. More permanent treatments like dental veneers, are more expensive than dental bonding. But the results are better and long-lasting.
Treatments such as teeth whitening are affordable and a simple way to transform your smile instantly. We can help you find the right treatments to fit your budget and help you reach your goals.
How can I get whiter teeth?
We offer professional teeth whitening, which is an easy and affordable way to brighten your smile. However, if that doesn’t work for you, there are also other ways to whiten your teeth. Our dentists may recommend dental bonding and veneers, which can also cover up the stains on our teeth.
Can cosmetic dental care improve my dental health?
Yes, our cosmetic dental services in Towson, MD, can go beyond creating the beautiful smile you have always wanted and support lasting oral health.
Treatments like veneers and crowns can repair damaged teeth, fill in decay, and fix bite problems. A straighter smile is easier to clean and less likely to develop cavities or gum disease.
At Sweet Tooth Dentistry, we look for the root cause of cosmetic issues. By treating the underlying problem, you get a beautiful smile that lasts.
Is cosmetic dentistry painful?
No, you shouldn’t experience any pain with cosmetic dental treatments. But you may feel some discomfort with certain treatments. For example, if you’re straightening your teeth with Invisalign, you may feel some soreness when you change into a new aligner set.
When we place veneers, we have to remove some of your tooth structure to make room for them. You may have some sensitivity when we expose the lower layer of your teeth. Our office will ensure you feel as comfortable as possible during and after treatment.
