Veneers
If you’ve ever watched TV or streamed a movie, you’ve likely seen dental veneers in action. They are extremely thin ceramic coverings that are designed to look like pristine white enamel and fit directly over aesthetically-flawed teeth, and they’re the secret behind many famous stars’ gorgeous smiles. Now, you can get the exact same treatment to eliminate tooth stains, chips, cracks, gaps, and more in just two appointments at our dental office near Lincoln.
Metal-Free Dental Restorations
When repairing a damaged tooth that shows prominently in the smile, we understand that both its health and appearance are extremely important. In this delicate situation, we like to use dental crowns and bridges made of 100% dental porcelain. This material is strong, durable, and able to perfectly match the appearance of natural tooth enamel in every way, even down to how it reflects light. With this material, we can make pretty much any dental problem practically disappear!
Clear Aligners
Plenty of people would love to straighten their teeth, but they avoid doing so because they don’t want to wear metal braces for years on end. Now, they don’t have to! Clear Aligners are a sleek and discreet orthodontic treatment that uses a series of custom-made plastic aligners to gently shift the teeth. No one will know you’re wearing them unless you tell them, and whenever it’s time to eat or brush, all you have to do is take them out until you’re finished.
Cosmetic Dental Bonding
Minor imperfections in a tooth, like a dark spot or minor chip, can be taken care of in just an hour or less with a quick and affordable treatment called cosmetic dental bonding. A naturally-colored composite resin is applied to a flawed tooth, and the dentist uses it to literally sculpt the tooth to perfection, hiding any blemish as they do. The procedure is not only fast, but affordable as well, and the beautiful results can be trusted to last for up to 10 years.

Teeth Whitening
Tired of wasting money on underpowered teeth whitening products that don’t deliver noticeable results? If you’re looking to get rid of stains caused by coffee, wine, tobacco, or aging, we can supply you with your own custom-made teeth whitening kit. It will consist of mouth trays specially-designed to fit over your teeth as well as a powerful bleaching gel—one much stronger than anything you can buy on your own. With just two weeks of daily use, you can easily make your teeth 6-8 shades whiter while you surf the web or binge your favorite show.
Gum Recontouring
Often, the reason a smile might not look its best has nothing to do with the teeth themselves, but rather the gums. Too much gum tissue showing in the smile can make the teeth appear short and stubby, throwing off its balance. To fix this kind of issue, we can use a dental laser to painlessly remove any excess tissue and reveal previously hidden dental structure. We can then shape the new gum line along the teeth to achieve that perfectly proportioned look.
Cosmetic Dentistry FAQs
Is Cosmetic Dentistry Expensive?
Cosmetic dentistry can range in cost depending on the procedure, materials used, and your specific goals. Minor treatments like teeth whitening are relatively affordable, while more advanced options like veneers or full smile makeovers are a larger investment.
The main reason cosmetic treatments feel more expensive is that the vast majority of dental insurance providers don’t cover them. That’s why at Amberly Dental, we offer flexible financing with Alphaeon and CareCredit to ease the burden on your wallet.
If you're looking for a cosmetic dentist in Waverly, we’ll gladly walk you through pricing during your consultation and help create a treatment plan that fits your smile—and your budget.
Is Cosmetic Dentistry Safe?
Cosmetic dentistry treatments are some of the safest procedures in the field when performed by trained dental professionals like Dr. Vacek and Dr. Hull. At our Waverly practice, we use quality materials and advanced techniques to protect your oral health while enhancing your smile.
Most procedures are non-invasive or minimally invasive, and risks are extremely low. However, if you have concerns, we’ll always review your medical and dental history before starting treatment to ensure it’s right for you. Our team is here to answer your questions and prioritize your safety every step of the way.
How Long Does Cosmetic Dentistry Last?
The longevity of cosmetic dental treatments depends almost entirely on the type of procedure you receive and how well you care for your smile afterward. For example:
- Teeth whitening may last 6–12 months.
- Dental bonding can last 3–10 years.
- Porcelain veneers often last 10–15 years or more.
A good rule to think about when it comes to treatment longevity is: the longer the treatment takes to perform, the longer it will last on average. With regular checkups and good oral hygiene habits at home, your results can truly go the distance.
Is Cosmetic Dentistry Worth It?
For many patients, cosmetic dentistry is absolutely worth it! It can improve not just your appearance, but also your confidence, self-esteem, and even how others feel about you. Whether you’re fixing a chipped tooth, whitening your smile, or undergoing a full transformation, the results can be life-changing.
At Amberly Dental, we’ve seen firsthand how a new smile can change a patient’s personal and professional life for the better. We hear success stories all the time, and it’s part of why we love to provide cosmetic dentistry in Waverly.
