Porcelain veneers have long been the go-to cosmetic treatment for Hollywood celebrities and models alike, and the reason for that is simple: they are able to quickly and effectively eliminate a multitude of aesthetic flaws with just one simple procedure. These extremely thin porcelain coverings can be custom-made to whiten your teeth, fix chips and cracks, close gaps, and even make slightly crooked teeth appear straighter. Whether you want a slight boost or a complete makeover, they can deliver it in as little as two appointments.

If a tooth that shows when you smile becomes damaged, we won’t simply repair it with an obvious metal crown and call it a day. Rather, we’ll use a more elegant solution with a restoration made completely of dental porcelain. This material is one of the most versatile and trusted in all of dentistry, able to recreate a natural tooth in almost every way, including shape, size, color, and even strength. With a metal-free restoration, Dr. Pate can make it look like nothing bad ever happened to your teeth.
Are small chips, cracks, or gaps throwing off the appearance of your smile? With direct cosmetic tooth bonding, Dr. Pate can literally sculpt a tooth to perfection. Using a tooth-colored composite resin, he can quickly improve the size, shape, and color of your tooth in as little as one appointment. This is one of the fastest and most affordable treatments in all of cosmetic dentistry, and even better, the results can be expected to last for 10 years or more!
Common items like coffee, wine, tobacco, aging, and even genetics can dramatically affect the color of your smile and prevent it from looking its whitest. If you want to turn back the clock, then we have a choice of professional whitening treatments that can effectively and safely whiten your smile up to 10 shades.
Have you wanted to straighten your crooked, crowded, or gapped teeth but couldn’t imagine facing the world with a mouthful of metal braces? With ClearCorrect, metal brackets are a thing of the past . The “invisible” braces process uses a series of clear plastic aligner trays to gently straighten the teeth. If you are a candidate, you can achieve the straighter teeth you’ve always wanted and smile with complete confidence while you do it.
Technically, any general dentist can also refer to themselves as a cosmetic dentist. If you’re looking for a highly qualified cosmetic dentist, you’ll want to dive into their experience. Continuing education, like Dr. Pate’s courses taken through the prestigious Pankey Institute, demonstrates the dentist’s up-to-date knowledge and specialized training in certain procedures, like veneers, bonding, and implant restoration. This type of experience will let you know how serious the dentist is about providing top-notch cosmetic results.

Dental crowns and veneers are two very different treatments, although they may sound similar when you’re reading about them. Crowns are typically recommended to help repair teeth that are damaged or support them if they’ve been treated in the past, like with a tooth-colored filling or root canal. Veneers offer solely cosmetic results, helping conceal the front visible surface of teeth to make them appear brighter, whole, and symmetrical.
Dental discoloration is one of the most common cosmetic imperfections that our patients come to us wanting to address. While some of the underlying causes of staining can be preventable, like consuming stain-causing beverages, others aren’t. Here are some of the most common reasons teeth become discolored:
Our team can help identify why your teeth are becoming discolored as well as provide you with safe, clinically-proven teeth whitening that can brighten your smile by up to eight shades!
Our dentists prioritize your oral health and will never recommend treatments or use products that could compromise it. If you have any questions or concerns about the impact your treatment will have on your smile, we’re always happy to address them.
If you’ve never received a cosmetic dental treatment before, it makes sense why you would be concerned about what to expect, like whether or not your treatment will be painful or uncomfortable. At Dentistry in Buckhead, Drs. Pate and Almquist, as well as our friendly and experienced team, will make sure that you remain comfortable throughout your entire treatment, regardless of what service you’re having completed.
While teeth whitening is non-invasive and typically doesn’t result in any discomfort, other procedures, like veneers and ClearCorrect, may cause some minor side-effects, like soreness and sensitivity. Our team will provide you with ways to help curb these effects and manage your comfort level.
