What is Cosmetic Dentistry?

Cosmetic dentistry improves how your smile looks. It corrects stained, chipped, gapped, worn, or uneven teeth. The goal is balance and symmetry while still looking like you. Dr. Goodman focuses on natural results, not a manufactured look. Cosmetic work refines the look of a healthy smile. Many plans treat the two very differently. Most patients come in with a specific concern. 

  • Stains and discoloration whitening or veneers can lighten.
  • Chips, cracks, and worn edges restored with bonding or veneers.
  • Gaps and uneven spacing closed for a balanced smile.
  • A gummy smile reshaped with conservative gum contouring.
  • Dark gum pigment evened out with gum bleaching.

Each concern has more than one fix. The right one depends on your teeth, your goals, and your budget. Dr. Goodman walks you through the trade-offs before any work starts.

OUR COSMETIC DENTISTRY

Treatments

Porcelain Veneers and Lumineers

Veneers are thin porcelain shells bonded to the front of your teeth. They cover chips, stains, gaps, and minor misalignment at once. Dr. Goodman favors a conservative, minimal-prep approach for natural results. Most patients say veneers look and feel like their own teeth. Learn more on the porcelain veneers page.

Porcelain Veneers

Teeth Whitening

Professional whitening lifts years of stains in about an hour. It brightens stains from coffee, wine, tea, and age. Dr. Goodman uses a safe, in-office system for fast, even results. Sensitivity is usually mild and short. Results last longer with simple home care. See the teeth whitening page for details.

Teeth Whitening

Invisalign

Invisalign straightens teeth with clear, removable aligners. You skip the look and feel of metal braces. Each set shifts your teeth a little closer to straight. Treatment length depends on how much your teeth move. Dr. Goodman maps the full plan before you start. Learn more on the Invisalign page.

Invisalign

Cosmetic Contouring

Contouring gently reshapes enamel to fix small flaws fast. It smooths uneven edges, sharp points, or slightly long teeth. The change is subtle, painless, and finished in a single visit. Dr. Goodman uses it to refine a smile, not to remake it. Explore cosmetic contouring to see if it fits.

Cosmetic Contouring

Gum Bleaching

Dark gum pigment can make a bright smile look uneven. Gum bleaching evens the tone for a healthier frame. Dr. Goodman uses a conservative technique to lighten the pigment. The treatment is gentle and well tolerated. Most patients need little to no downtime afterward.

Gum Bleaching

Dental Bonding

Bonding repairs small chips, cracks, and gaps in one visit. Dr. Goodman shapes tooth-colored resin to match your enamel. He sculpts and polishes it by hand for a smooth finish. No drilling or anesthesia is needed. It is a fast, affordable fix for minor flaws. Learn more about dental bonding.

8. No Associates and No Corporate-Owned Dental Practice

In a world of corporation-owned businesses, a private practice provides you with a different kind of care and attention. You get a personal call after your treatment, and Dr. Goodman is available to speak with you and discuss your case as much as you need to.

9. Warranty of Dental Work

Many patients come to us with revision cases. A revision case is when another dentist cemented all veneers, and patients were not happy. Typically, the dentist did not permit any alterations to the date of veneer delivery, resulting in a permanently cemented case. This is unfortunate, as it is so much easier to change and modify veneers before you cement a case permanently. With our smile guarantee, you can preview the veneers in your mouth and make changes, modifications, and even redo the entire case at no additional cost. Once you love your smile, we can deliver and cement your veneers with confidence.

10. Choose Your Dentist Wisely™

A great cosmetic dentist is one experienced in saving teeth first and foremost. Dr. Goodman prioritizes saving and restoring teeth that other offices have recommended for extraction. Extractions are easy and fast, saving teeth, and doing all that can be done to SAVE your teeth is an effort that most dentists would rather not do anymore.

11. Founder of FACE Dentistry

Dr. Goodman created FACE Dentistry, his method for correcting a bite and jaw position without surgery or braces. It repositions the jaw with no-prep veneers, then holds the new position. Most cosmetic dentists place veneers. He built an approach that changes the bite, the jaw, and the profile, not only the smile.

Will My Results Look Natural?

Natural results come from conservative technique, not heavy drilling. Dr. Goodman uses a minimal-prep or no-prep veneer protocol whenever possible. He trained in Germany and works with skilled ceramists in his own lab. You preview the smile first. If it looks off, he changes it before anything is permanent.

His in-house lab stains and bakes veneers on site. This keeps color and shape under his control. Many patients come to him to redo work they disliked elsewhere. German training shaped his eye for shade and shape. Front teeth set the tone of a smile. He treats them as the most visible work he does.

How Much Does Cosmetic Dentistry Cost

in Beverly Hills?

Cosmetic dentistry cost depends on the treatment, the number of teeth, and the materials used. Whitening sits at the low end. Full veneer cases sit at the high end. Dr. Goodman gives you a clear quote at your consultation. Financing is available through CareCredit and Enhance Patient Financing.

The cheapest option is rarely the best value. Veneers redone twice cost more than veneers done right once. Dr. Goodman plans for results built to last. He will tell you when a simpler treatment makes more sense.

Dr. Goodman's Philosophy

A real smile transformation starts with facial harmony. Your teeth, the white esthetics, balance with your gums, the pink esthetics. Healthy gums make a beautiful smile possible. This is why Dr. Goodman favors a minimal or no-prep veneer approach whenever the case allows. Trained in Germany and the United States, he removes as little tooth as possible, and often none. Roughly 20% of veneer requests here end with a more conservative fix like bonding or whitening. Conservative preparation gives you:

  • More comfort during treatment
  • A stronger bond between porcelain and tooth
  • Less pain and sensitivity
  • More trust in the process

Choose your dentist wisely. Great results come from master ceramists, a skilled team, and close work between dentist, lab, and patient. Your veneers look like your own teeth, never fake. Dr. Goodman also saves teeth before removing them. When a specialist can protect a tooth, he calls one in rather than extracting early. The only regret patients mention is not starting sooner.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is cosmetic dentistry worth it?

For most patients, yes. A better smile can lift confidence in work and social life. Cosmetic dentistry also improves balance and symmetry, and some fixes protect worn teeth. The Cleveland Clinic notes it can bring symmetry to teeth and gums. The value depends on choosing an experienced dentist.

Does dental insurance cover cosmetic dentistry?

Usually not. Most plans treat cosmetic work as elective and exclude it. The ADA lists procedures like whitening as common plan exclusions. Some treatments restoring function may get partial coverage. Dr. Goodman’s team helps you understand your options and offers financing.

How do porcelain veneers compare to dental bonding?

It depends on the treatment. Whitening and bonding often finish in one visit. The Cleveland Clinic notes bonding is usually done in a single appointment. Veneers take a few visits to design, preview, and place. Dr. Goodman gives you a timeline at your consultation.

Can cosmetic dentistry results look natural?

Yes, with the right technique. Conservative preparation and quality porcelain keep results lifelike. The Cleveland Clinic notes veneers conceal flaws while blending with your teeth. Dr. Goodman lets you preview and adjust the smile first. A result nobody can detect is the goal.

Is a DMD different from a DDS for cosmetic dentistry?

No, a DMD and a DDS are the same degree. Both mean the dentist graduated from an accredited dental school. The ADA confirms the two degrees carry the same education and training. Dr. Goodman holds both a DDS and a DMD, which is rare in this market.
