- Flexible Financing to Make Paying for Treatment Easy
- Decades of Combined Experience Among Our Three Dentists

Veneers
As custom restorations that are most commonly crafted from porcelain, dental veneers can conceal many imperfections. Fabricated using impressions of your teeth and specifications provided by our team, you can expect your new smile to look natural and fit comfortably. With each veneer carefully placed by a talented member of our team, you’ll walk away feeling better than ever about your transformed appearance.
Metal-Free Dental Restorations
At Frandsen Dental of Grantsville, we try to stay away from any traditional amalgam and instead use metal-free restorations to repair and improve smiles. When damage or decay keeps your teeth from looking and feeling their best, we can deliver treatment that not only protects and ensures better function but also exudes a more natural appearance.
Cosmetic Dental Bonding
Minor imperfections often do not require more invasive forms of treatment but instead can be addressed with cosmetic bonding. Consisting of composite resin that is applied directly to the tooth enamel, we will shape and sculpt it so that the flaw is completely covered. One of the best parts of receiving this form of treatment is that it takes only one visit to achieve a more beautiful smile.
Teeth Whitening
In-office and take-home teeth whitening kits are the two types of professional treatment you can expect to receive at Frandsen Dental of Grantsville. The type of whitening you receive is up to you, but with the help of the Ultradent system, we can whiten your teeth in just one hour with in-office treatment. You also have the option of seeing results in two weeks should you decide to pursue the alternative – professional take-home whitening with Ultradent.
Understanding the Cost of Cosmetic Dentistry
Whether you want to lift a few stubborn stains or you want to completely transform your smile with veneers, you might be wondering how much your cosmetic dental treatment will cost. Once we know your specific aesthetic concerns, dental needs, and smile goals, we can provide you with a price estimate. In the meantime, we can share some helpful information on the topic, including the financial solutions that are available at our office.
Which Cosmetic Dental Service is Right for Me?
Naturally, one of the biggest factors that will impact the cost is the service you choose. Below, you will find some helpful, cost-related information on a few of the most popular ones:
- Cosmetic Dental Bonding – This is usually the most affordable option upfront. That said, the results don’t last as long as other cosmetic dental treatments. So, it’s important to keep the cost of maintenance in mind when making your decision.
- Teeth Whitening – Professional whitening treatments are typically more mid-range in terms of cost. Once we know the cause of the discoloration, the severity of the stains, and your aesthetic goals, we can provide you with a better estimate of the price.
- Veneers – Since veneers usually require the highest upfront price, many patients assume it isn’t the best choice for their wallets. However, it’s important to remember that they can last for over a decade with proper care.
Cosmetic Dentistry Can Be an Investment Worth Making
Oftentimes, patients are hesitant to commit to cosmetic dentistry because they assume the benefits begin and end with appearance. The truth is that’s just the beginning. Several studies have shown that patients who whitened their teeth prior to a job interview were more likely to receive an offer. Plus, your smile is one of the first features others notice. So, lifting noticeable gaps, fixing considerable gaps, and addressing significant chips can benefit your self-esteem, your professional success, and your love life!
How to Make Cosmetic Dentistry Affordable
There are several ways our patients can make the cost of cosmetic dentistry more affordable, including:
- Joining Our In-House Membership Plan – In addition to getting access to preventive care, our membership plan comes with a 20%-60% discount on all other services completed at our office.
- Signing Up for Flexible Financing – With Cherry, you don’t have to pay for the entire cost in one lump sum. Instead, you can break up the total price into smaller, more budget-friendly chunks.
If you have any lingering questions for us about the cost, don’t hesitate to schedule a consultation with us. That way, we can provide you with an estimate as well as further details on the financial solutions available.
Cosmetic Dentistry FAQs
Is Cosmetic Dentistry Expensive?
While many people assume cosmetic dentistry must be incredibly expensive, this isn’t always the case. The team at Frandsen Dental of Grantsville offers a variety of effective cosmetic dental treatments at a wide range of price points, and we’re eager to help you find an affordable solution that addresses your needs and preferences. While it’s unlikely that your insurance policy will cover medically unnecessary cosmetic dental work, there may be an exception if a treatment provides medical benefits such as when a veneer or a dental crown protects a damaged tooth from further infection and injury. Your policy may also offer at least partial coverage for preliminary treatments like dental fillings or gum disease therapy. We also offer our in-house membership plan and flexible financing options from Cherry, which can help make cosmetic treatments more affordable.
Even if your cosmetic dental treatment seems costly at first, it’s important to remember that the procedure can be seen as an investment in your appearance and confidence that can pay returns over time. For example, achieving a smile you can be proud of may make it easier to engage socially and present a professional appearance at work, which can help you make friends and gain access to a wide variety of career opportunities.
Is Cosmetic Dentistry Covered by Insurance?
Since cosmetic dental procedures are not usually considered medically necessary, dental insurance doesn’t typically offer any coverage for them. However, your policy may partially pay for a treatment that provides medical benefits, such as when a crown or a veneer shelters a compromised tooth from new infections and injuries. Your plan may also offer some coverage for preliminary treatments that may be necessary before you receive cosmetic dental work such as dental fillings, root canals, and gum disease therapy. Our team in Grantsville will be sure to evaluate your insurance policy during your consultation in case it offers any coverage.
Does Cosmetic Dentistry Hurt?
Many people are anxious about receiving dental procedures because of the possibility of discomfort, but the team at Frandsen Dental of Grantsville is trained and equipped to perform cosmetic treatments while preserving the patient’s comfort. Teeth whitening and cosmetic dental bonding are noninvasive procedures that are typically painless without anesthesia, and we’ll be sure to apply an appropriate anesthetic to keep you comfortable before performing more intensive procedures. We’ll also provide you with all aftercare instructions necessary to help you enjoy a smooth and speedy recovery after your treatment.
Can I Replace a Metal Crown with a Tooth-Colored One?
Metal crowns can be an excellent way to restore teeth, but they can be quite conspicuous, especially if they are located in the front of the mouth. If you aren’t happy with the appearance of your current dental crown, we’ll be happy to set you up with a beautiful and lifelike metal-free restoration at our Grantsville office. These devices can be made from a variety of materials like ceramics, resin, and zirconia, and they will not cause any adverse reactions due to metal allergies or frequent thermal expansion and contraction.
