SMILE TRANSFORMATION
Create the
Smile You've
Always Wanted
Your smile plays a significant role in your confidence, self-esteem, and how others perceive you. At Boe Family Dental, Dr. Eric Boe understands that even minor cosmetic concerns can affect how you feel about your appearance. Whether you’re bothered by discolored teeth, chips, gaps, or an uneven smile line, cosmetic dentistry offers solutions that can dramatically improve your smile’s aesthetic appeal while maintaining optimal oral health.
Modern cosmetic dentistry combines artistry with advanced dental techniques to create natural-looking, beautiful results. Dr. Boe takes a comprehensive approach to smile enhancement, considering not just individual teeth but how your entire smile works together. He evaluates tooth color, shape, size, alignment, and how your teeth relate to your gums, lips, and facial features to create a harmonious, attractive result that compliments your unique characteristics.
The benefits of cosmetic dentistry extend beyond appearance. Many cosmetic treatments also improve tooth function and protect against future dental problems. For instance, fixing chipped or worn teeth can prevent further damage, while closing gaps between teeth reduces areas where food and bacteria accumulate. Dr. Boe designs treatment plans that enhance both the beauty and health of your smile for lasting results.
COMPREHENSIVE COSMETIC SOLUTIONS
Tailored Treatment
Options
Dr. Boe offers a range of cosmetic treatments to address various aesthetic concerns. Teeth whitening can brighten discolored or stained teeth by several shades, creating a more youthful, vibrant appearance. Professional whitening delivers more dramatic and longer-lasting results than over-the-counter products while protecting tooth enamel and minimizing sensitivity. The treatment works effectively on most types of tooth discoloration caused by aging, foods, beverages, or smoking.
Dental bonding provides a conservative solution for repairing chipped, cracked, or slightly misshapen teeth. Using tooth-colored composite resin, Dr. Boe can rebuild tooth structure, close small gaps, or improve tooth shape in a single appointment. The bonding material is carefully sculpted and color-matched to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, creating an attractive, natural-looking result. This versatile treatment offers an affordable way to enhance your smile without extensive dental work.
YOUR COSMETIC JOURNEY
Treatment Process
Consultation and Smile Design
Your cosmetic journey begins with a comprehensive consultation where Dr. Boe listens to your concerns, goals, and expectations. He examines your teeth, gums, and bite to assess your oral health and determine which treatments will achieve your desired results. Using digital imaging and diagnostic tools, Dr. Boe can show you potential outcomes and help you visualize your new smile. Together, you’ll develop a customized treatment plan that addresses your specific concerns and fits your budget and timeline.
Treatment Implementation
Once you approve your treatment plan, Dr. Boe begins the transformation process. The number of appointments required depends on which procedures you’re receiving. Some treatments like bonding or professional whitening can be completed in a single visit, while others like veneers or crowns require multiple appointments for tooth preparation, impressions, and final placement. Throughout the process, Dr. Boe ensures your comfort and keeps you informed about what to expect at each stage of treatment.
Final Results and Maintenance
After completing your cosmetic treatments, Dr. Boe provides detailed instructions for maintaining your beautiful new smile. Proper oral hygiene, regular dental visits, and certain lifestyle modifications help protect your investment and ensure long-lasting results. Dr. Boe remains available to address any questions or concerns you have as you adjust to your enhanced smile. Many patients report increased confidence and satisfaction with their appearance following cosmetic dental treatment, positively impacting both personal and professional aspects of their lives.
IDEAL CANDIDATES
Is Cosmetic Dentistry
Right for You?
Most adults with good oral health make excellent candidates for cosmetic dentistry. The ideal candidate has realistic expectations about treatment outcomes and is committed to maintaining results through good oral hygiene and regular dental care. If you’re bothered by the appearance of your smile and wish to make improvements, cosmetic dentistry likely offers solutions that can help you achieve your goals.
However, certain oral health issues must be addressed before pursuing cosmetic treatments. Active tooth decay, gum disease, or other dental problems should be treated first to ensure a healthy foundation for cosmetic work. Dr. Boe evaluates your complete oral health status during your consultation and recommends any necessary preliminary treatments. Once your oral health is optimized, you can proceed with confidence knowing your cosmetic results will be both beautiful and long-lasting.

NATURAL-LOOKING RESULTS
The Art of
Smile Design
Creating beautiful, natural-looking cosmetic results requires both technical skill and artistic vision. Dr. Boe carefully considers multiple factors when designing your new smile, including tooth color that complements your skin tone, tooth shapes that harmonize with your facial features, and proportions that create balance and symmetry. The goal is never to create a smile that looks artificial or overdone, but rather to enhance your natural beauty in a way that looks completely authentic.
Tooth color selection is particularly important for achieving natural results. Dr. Boe evaluates the existing shades of your teeth and considers how they will look under different lighting conditions. He also takes into account your age, as perfectly white teeth may not look natural on older patients whose teeth would naturally have some color variation. By paying attention to these subtle details, Dr. Boe creates results that look like your own teeth, only better.
The texture and translucency of dental materials also contribute to how natural your results appear. Modern cosmetic materials can be customized to mimic the subtle variations found in natural tooth enamel. Dr. Boe works with skilled dental laboratories to ensure your restorations capture these nuances, resulting in cosmetic work that blends seamlessly with your remaining natural teeth. The combination of his clinical expertise and attention to aesthetic detail produces smile transformations that exceed patient expectations.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long do cosmetic dental treatments last?
The longevity of cosmetic dental treatments varies depending on the specific procedure and how well you maintain your results. Professional teeth whitening typically lasts one to three years before touch-ups are needed. Dental bonding may last three to seven years, while porcelain veneers and crowns can last 10 to 15 years or longer with proper care. Maintaining good oral hygiene, avoiding habits that can damage teeth like chewing ice or biting fingernails, and attending regular dental checkups all contribute to extending the life of your cosmetic work.
Does cosmetic dentistry damage natural teeth?
Modern cosmetic dentistry techniques are designed to be as conservative as possible while achieving excellent aesthetic results. Treatments like professional whitening and bonding preserve natural tooth structure entirely. Even procedures that require some tooth preparation, such as veneers or crowns, involve minimal removal of tooth structure when performed by an experienced dentist like Dr. Boe. He prioritizes conservative approaches that maintain as much healthy tooth structure as possible while delivering the beautiful, lasting results you desire for your smile.
