How much does cosmetic dentistry cost?

I want to get a smile makeover but am concerned about the cost of cosmetic dentistry. What do most procedures cost? Are there some cosmetic dentistry procedures that will give me "more bang for my buck"?

Range of cosmetic dental procedures

Cosmetic dental procedures can range from simply whitening teeth, combined with reshaping minor discrepencies, to a full mouth smile makeover.

If you are not pleased with the shape of your teeth due to wear, malformation, chipping, etc. some sort of bonding or veneers would be the treatment of choice. If you want teeth lengthened then either laser treatment in recontouring the gum tissue may work. However, veneers or more conservative direct bonding will result in more tooth display on smiling.
