Cosmetic Dentistry

Weddings, reunions, every season…we want to have a smile we can be proud of. There are many misconceptions about “Cosmetic Dentistry”. What EXACTLY is Cosmetic dentistry? Is cosmetic dentistry a specialty? Does it mean full smile make over? Does it mean expensive? Is it just for “other people”? Goodwin Family Dentistry provides affordable cosmetic dentistry for patients in Jewett City, Norwich and other towns of New London County, CT.

There are nine American Dental Association recognized dental specialties. “Cosmetic Dentistry” is NOT on that list and is not an ADA recognized dental specialty. “Cosmetic Dentistry” does not mean “Extreme Smile Make-Over,” it is an approach to every single restoration we do. At Goodwin Family Dentistry, cosmetic dentistry is more of a philosophical approach to treatment. Cosmetic Dentistry to us, is simply mimicking nature’s ideals. Ideal coloration, shape, position and function. However large or small a treatment plan may be, cosmetic principles are at play.

Every patient we treat, deserves to have cosmetic dentistry, it’s not for “Other people” it’s for EVERYONE. What we love to hear when we finish a restoration is “Now, which tooth was it?”.

At Goodwin Family Dentistry in Jewett City, we provide affordable cosmetic dentistry. We work with all dental insurance on our patient’s behalf and are participating providers for many dental insurance plans. This draws people from New London county and Norwich who are seeking affordable cosmetic dentistry.
