Cosmetic Dentistry in Coeur d'Alene and Sandpoint

Wouldn’t it be great to walk into a gathering and feel confident enough to share a big smile? If you are less than self-assured about what your smile says to others, we would love to explain how cosmetic dentistry can help you! 

At North Idaho Dental Group, we make dream smiles a reality every day! We would love to work with you to enhance the parts of your smile you love and correct those that you feel hold you back.

When you hear “cosmetic dentistry”, you may think of services like veneers and teeth whitening. At NIDG, all the dentistry we provide is cosmetic. 

We exclusively use the highest quality materials closely resembling a tooth’s translucent, lustrous appearance. Our experienced cosmetic dentists have a passion for creating beautiful smiles, and their goal is to deliver beautiful, long-lasting work, whether it’s a filling or a full set of veneers.

How Can Cosmetic Dentistry Improve My Smile?

It’s always exciting for us to meet with a patient who wants to take their smile to the next level with cosmetic dentistry. If you have a single chipped tooth or want a total smile makeover, we have the solution to help you.

We commonly help patients who want to correct the following aesthetic dental issues:

  • Broken teeth
  • Gaps or uneven spacing between teeth
  • Crooked or crowded teeth
  • Tooth size or shape differences
  • Stained, discolored, or yellow teeth

If any of these is on your smile improvement wishlist, our cosmetic dentists in Coeur d’Alene and Ponderay would love to help you!

Professional Teeth Whitening in Coeur d'Alene

It’s tempting to take the DIY, store-bought route with teeth whitening products. Unfortunately, it can also be frustrating and costly when you don’t see the results you want.

At NIDG, we offer in-office teeth whitening with Zoom! products that deliver brilliant, consistent results every time. You will leave our office in about an hour with a significantly whiter and brighter smile.

We also provide custom take-home whitening trays so you can perform convenient monthly touchups at home.

A veneer is a super-thin shell of porcelain or ceramic designed to cover the fronts of one or more teeth. Our cosmetic dentists use precise digital impressions to customize veneers that conceal flaws like broken teeth, spacing issues, tooth discoloration, and even hide slightly misaligned teeth. 

Invisalign Clear Aligners in Sandpoint

Crooked, crowded, and unevenly spaced don’t look very attractive. Unfortunately, these issues also increase your risk for cavities and gum disease and can lead to teeth grinding, worn or damaged teeth, and TMJ issues. 

Invisalign clear aligners are a convenient, comfortable, and discreet orthodontic treatment that won’t interfere with your lifestyle as metal braces do. Using Invisalign, we can help you get a straighter smile in 12–18 months or less.

Tooth-Colored Fillings, Crowns, and Bonding

We use composite resin for fillings and bonding procedures because its appearance is similar to tooth enamel. When we custom-color the resin to match the tooth’s shade, we create a seamless and invisible repair. 

A dental crown is a cap of porcelain or zirconia that completely covers a tooth, making them a great choice to conceal discolored or poorly shaped teeth.

Getting Started with Cosmetic Dentistry in Northern Idaho

If you’re interested in cosmetic dentistry, the first step is to schedule an appointment at North Idaho Dental Group. We’re excited to help you take the first steps, but to ensure the best long-term results, it’s crucial to ensure that your teeth and gums are healthy first. 

Please call us to schedule a convenient appointment to get started. We are pleased to serve patients in Coeur d’Alene and Ponderay, including Sandpoint.
