Affordable Staten Island Cosmetic Dentistry

Affordable San Diego Cosmetic DentistryWill your New York dental insurance cover Staten Island cosmetic dental procedures? Many Staten Island dentistry clients assume their dental insurance won’t cover any cosmetic dental procedures. This is probably true for tooth whitening or first time dental bonding. However, many New York dental insurance plans and dental supplemental plans cover orthodontia and any treatment needed to repair damage from an injury. Medical insurance and worker’s compensation plans may also cover injury treatment.

Some New York dental insurance plans cover replacement dental veneers in certain circumstances. Check with your carrier for benefit specifics if you need replacement veneers due to deterioration. We can then discuss dental treatment options such as replacement veneers or porcelain crowns. When the work is completed, we may be able to help you submit your dental claim form if your plan requires one.

If you are in need of any kind of dental treatment; from a cleaning to major restorative work, come in to Staten Island Dental care on 1520 Richmond Ave., Staten Island, NY 10314. You can meet our very comfortable and friendly team, undergo a thorough evaluation and discuss financing options. Even if you do not have New York dental insurance, let’s talk. Top quality Staten Island dental treatment is a wise investment and may be more affordable than you think.

Porcelain Veneers at Staten Island Dental Care

Porcelain Veneers With porcelain veneers, you can revamp your smile without significant restorative dental work.

Porcelain veneers are glass-like, wafer-thin covers that are attached to the front of your teeth. Porcelain has been used in dentistry for many years because no other restorative material is such an excellent match for natural tooth enamel. Porcelain is translucent and can be matched to the color of any tooth. It is stronger than enamel and resists stains. Dental ceramists who fabricate porcelain veneers are both artists and technicians. They create beautiful paper-thin wafers that adhere to teeth, correcting chips and stains. Porcelain veneers can also straighten crooked teeth for patients who don’t need orthodontic work.

Patients who receive porcelain veneers appreciate the less-invasive process of enhancing their smile. Newer techniques require no removal of healthy tooth enamel.

We would be happy to show you what dental veneers can do for your smile at our Staten Island dental office.
