What is Cosmetic Dentistry?
Cosmetic dentistry is the area of dentistry that improves the overall aesthetic or appearance of one’s teeth, gums or bite. Common cosmetic dentistry treatment options include professional whitening, bonding, veneers, contouring, composite fillings, and orthodontics (braces and Invisalign). Typically, these procedures don’t just affect the appearance of your smile; they also positively affect your dental health.
Our cosmetic dentists have specialized knowledge and experience providing dental aesthetic treatments to patients in the Richmond area. We have enhanced thousands of smiles, which has given patients a newfound sense of confidence and joy.
What Does Cosmetic Dentistry Fix?
Cosmetic dentistry can fix a variety of issues that affect your smile and appearance. The most common issues cosmetic dental services address include:
- Discolored Teeth – Treatments like teeth whitening and veneers can add brilliance to your smile; they can create consistency whether addressing one tooth or several at a time.
- Crooked or Misaligned Teeth – Crooked teeth can affect your bite and prevent a smile from looking its best; cosmetic treatments like Invisalign and braces can re-align teeth to improve their appearance and function.
- Missing Teeth – A missing tooth can make you feel self-conscious and not wanting to smile; we can fix this through treatments like implants, bridges, and dentures.
- Tooth Gaps – If a gap in your smile is stopping you from looking and feeling your best then you’ll be delighted with dental bonding; this treatment fills in large gaps, making your smile more filled out.
- Fractured Teeth – Combining dentistry techniques that save the tooth and restores its beauty, we can transform your smile and oral health during one visit; veneers are a wonderful, transformative cosmetic option.
Cosmetic Dentistry Treatment Options
We provide many ways to achieve a perfect smile at River Run Dental Spa. Learn more about the cosmetic dental treatments that we offer to patients in the Richmond area.
Straighten Your Teeth with Invisalign
nvisalign is the easiest and most convenient way to straighten your teeth.
Using a series of removable custom aligners, your teeth slowly move into their desired position. Invisalign can be used to treat a wide variety of cases, and can even cut orthodontic treatment times in half for some patients!
One of the most popular reasons that many of our patients choose Invisalign over traditional braces is that it’s a treatment option that fits easily into anyone’s lifestyle. Whether you are a teacher, a business professional, or a professional athlete – Invisalign is a great way for you to get the smile you have always desired.
Our practice offers complimentary Invisalign consultations, flexible payment options, and digital impressions with our iTero digital scanner. At your Invisalign consultation, you will actually see your predicted results so that you know just what Invisalign can do for you!

Teeth Whitening That Works with Just One Treatment
Professional whitening is one of our most popular cosmetic dentistry procedures.
Teeth can become stained for various reasons, including smoking, eating certain foods, drinking coffee, tea, or red wine, or having poor oral hygiene. Teeth bleaching can instantly enhance the appearance of a stained smile.
At River Run Dental, we utilize the GLO Professional Whitening System. We love this system because it’s customized to reduce the sensitivity frequently associated with professional whitening.
A single in-office procedure can whiten your teeth up to 8 shades! This visit typically takes about 2 hours.
In addition to the in-office procedure, you will also receive a series of professional whitening vials that you can take with you to use for future touch-ups. If you don’t need something quite as dramatic, or if you just want to touch up your smile, our practice does offer several other teeth whitening options. Make sure to ask about these at your next dental appointment!
Veneers, a Cosmetic Option to Improve or Protect Your Teeth
A veneer is simply a layer of material that is adhered over the tooth to improve the appearance of the tooth or to protect it from damage. Veneers can remedy discolored, cracked, crooked, or broken teeth.
After performing a thorough dental exam, our cosmetic dentists may recommend veneers as a treatment option to help you achieve your desired results.
The process of getting veneers typically requires several dental appointments. The first appointment involves a consultation and exam. The second appointment is when the tooth is prepped for the veneer. The final appointment is when the veneer is bonded to the existing tooth structure. And like that – you will have a fantastic, pearly-white smile!
Bonding, Repair, and Restore Damaged Teeth
Chipped, broken, discolored, or decayed teeth may be repaired or have their appearance improved with dental bonding.
Tooth bonding involves the placement of a natural-looking material onto the surface of a tooth, where it is then sculpted into shape, contoured, and hardened with high-intensity light. The result is a restoration that blends invisibly with the remainder of the surrounding tooth structure and the rest of your natural teeth to create a healthy, bright smile.
Without even realizing it, many patients have received a dental treatment involving dental bonding: either direct composite bonding or adhesive bonding of a restoration that was created in a laboratory or in-office.
