Cosmetic dentistry is a specialized branch of oral care that focuses on improving the appearance of your teeth, mouth, and smile. While it’s often perceived as optional or ‘just for looks,’ cosmetic dentistry actually plays an important role in maintaining the overall health of your teeth.
Procedures can range from simple treatments like teeth whitening to more complex procedures like dental implants, veneers, or full smile makeovers. The goal is not just to enhance your smile’s beauty, but also to improve your confidence and quality of life.
Every procedure is tailored to your unique needs, ensuring that we achieve results that look natural, feel comfortable, and function just like your original teeth.
Benefits of Cosmetic Dentistry
While cosmetic dentistry can seem superficial to some, it is known to have many health advantages. The benefits of cosmetic dentistry can include helping you have a healthier smile while also helping to feel confident in your everyday life. Here are a few areas of your life that can be improved by cosmetic dentistry:
- Health: Cosmetic dentistry can help with your overall oral health and well-being. Some cosmetic procedures straighten teeth, which allows for easier flossing and dental hygiene. By having good dental hygiene, you are able to prevent plaque and lower your chances of tooth decay and other periodontal diseases.
- Emotions: Feeling confident when you don’t like your smile can be difficult for many people. When you have a smile you love, it can help you to feel better about yourself and excited to take on the challenges and adventures of each day.
- Lifestyle: Having a smile you love and feel confident in will help you to live each day to the fullest. You will find that your new smile will help you feel better about yourself and you won’t have to hide or be afraid of what others think.

Cosmetic Dental Procedures Offered at Etesse and Godes Holistic & Cosmetic Dentistry
We provide many different cosmetic dental procedures to help you look and feel your best! Our dentists will help you choose the treatments that are right for you and within your budget.
Porcelain Dental Veneers
Veneers are custom-made shells that fit over the front surfaces of your teeth. They are a cosmetic solution that is able to hide tooth imperfections such as chips, cracks, and tooth discolorations.
Using porcelain dental veneers, Dr. Charlotte Etesse and Dr. Stacy Godes can help you achieve your personal perfect smile in just two appointments! Veneers are custom-made to match your natural teeth, and they will provide you with a beautiful, long-lasting solution for your smile. We welcome you to call us to schedule a consultation with our skilled dentists!
Bonding
Sometimes a tooth can become chipped or cracked. If you have cracked teeth, try dental bonding: a quick cosmetic procedure that fixes broken or damaged teeth. Bonding is a flexible composite resin that matches the tooth color and is used to shape and form the tooth back to its original form. Bonding can also be used to fill in gaps in teeth, cover tooth discoloration, or even lengthen a tooth that is shorter than another.
Clear Aligners
Clear aligners are a discreet option for straightening teeth. They can straighten teeth just as well as metal braces, but they’re more comfortable and invisible!
If you are tired of misaligned or crooked teeth, our dentists may recommend Invisalign® or SureSmile® clear aligners to help you achieve the straighter smile that you desire. With Invisalign clear aligners, you can achieve beautiful results while also enjoying a comfortable and nearly invisible treatment.
Schedule your consultation with Dr. Charlotte Etesse or Dr. Stacy Godes, and find out if you are a candidate for Invisalign clear aligners in Solana Beach, California. Call us today.
Teeth Whitening
Having a bright white smile helps anyone to feel confident. At our office, we use the Sinsational® teeth whitening system and Zoom whitening system.
Both systems use a powerful and safe whitening gel that is applied to the surface of the teeth. The gel will help whiten the tooth and minimize the appearance of stains and other discolorations on the tooth. With Sinsational® and Zoom® whitening in Solana Beach, California, you can enjoy a brighter, more beautiful smile in as little as 20 minutes!
Dr. Charlotte Etesse and Dr. Stacy Godes offer these fast and effective whitening trays to break down stains and discolorations so that you can regain your smile as quickly as possible with virtually no sensitivity.
