Cosmetic dentistry in Philadelphia & the Main Line
Change what bothers you
without over-treating your smile
What would you like to change about your smile?
You do not need to know which cosmetic treatment you need before your consultation. Start with what bothers you. We will help you understand which options can address it and whether a simpler treatment could get you the result you want.
Porcelain veneers
Veneers can change the shape, size, color, and symmetry of visible teeth when bonding or whitening alone will not create the change you want. Your dentist designs the treatment around your smile, facial proportions, and existing teeth so the final result looks natural rather than overdone.
Cosmetic bonding
Bonding uses tooth-colored composite to repair small chips, close minor gaps, reshape uneven edges, or make subtle improvements to individual teeth. Because composite is added directly to the tooth, bonding can often make a noticeable change while preserving more natural enamel.
Teeth whitening
Your dentist can help determine whether whitening alone is likely to give you the result you want or whether discoloration would respond better to another cosmetic treatment.
Invisalign
Clear aligners may also be combined with whitening, bonding, or veneers when alignment is only one part of your cosmetic plan.
Smile makeovers
If you want to address several concerns at once, a smile makeover combines the treatments you actually need into one coordinated plan.
Depending on your smile, that may include bonding, veneers, Invisalign, crowns, or dental implants.
For patients with extensive wear, missing teeth, or failing dental work, prosthodontic and full mouth reconstruction may be more appropriate than cosmetic treatment alone. The practice specifically provides veneers, bonding, porcelain crowns, Invisalign, implants, and full-mouth reconstruction and also evaluates failed cosmetic work from other offices.
Bonding, veneers, or whitening?
Sometimes the hardest part is figuring out how much treatment you actually need.
In general:
- Whitening changes tooth color
- Bonding makes smaller changes to shape, chips, or gaps
- Veneers can make broader changes to shape, color, size, and symmetry
- Invisalign changes tooth position
- Crowns may be needed when a tooth also requires structural restoration
Your consultation is designed to narrow those options down before you commit to treatment.

before you decide
Your dentist will evaluate your smile, teeth, bite, and goals before recommending treatment. Digital imaging can also help with diagnosis and planning, and The Dental Spa offers virtual smile consultations for patients who want to start the conversation from home.
Why prosthodontic training matters in cosmetic dentistry
The Dental Spa is a prosthodontist-led practice. Prosthodontists complete additional specialty training in complex restorations, tooth replacement, and bite rehabilitation, which can be especially valuable when cosmetic treatment involves veneers, crowns, implants, worn teeth, or existing dental work.
Dr. Nicole Deakins is a board-certified prosthodontist and Fellow of the American College of Prosthodontists. The practice’s prosthodontists completed advanced specialty training at the University of Pennsylvania and Columbia University.

Frequently asked questions about cosmetic dentistry
Which cosmetic dental treatment is right for me?
Whitening addresses color, bonding works well for smaller chips and shape changes, veneers can address broader concerns with shape and symmetry, and Invisalign changes tooth position.
Your dentist can also recommend a combination when one treatment alone will not address everything you want to change.
How much does cosmetic dentistry cost in Philadelphia?
The Dental Spa provides a personalized treatment plan with clear pricing before treatment begins and offers financing options.
What makes The Dental Spa different for cosmetic dentistry?
That specialty training becomes particularly relevant when cosmetic treatment also involves your bite, crowns, implants, worn teeth, or previous restorations. The practice is led by prosthodontists, including board-certified prosthodontist Dr. Nicole Deakins.
Can I get a cosmetic dentistry opinion without coming into the office?
Yes.
The Dental Spa offers virtual smile consultations. You can submit a short video of your smile, and a doctor will review your concerns and recommend possible treatment options.
Can you correct cosmetic dental work from another dentist?
Yes. The Dental Spa states that its doctors correct and replace failed cosmetic work from other offices.
The first step is determining why the existing work is not meeting your needs and whether it should be adjusted, replaced, or approached differently.
Do I need veneers for a smile makeover?
A smile makeover is a treatment plan, not one specific procedure. Depending on your needs, it may involve whitening, bonding, Invisalign, veneers, crowns, or a combination.
The goal is to use the treatments that address your concerns without doing more dentistry than necessary.
