What is the difference between a cosmetic dentist and a general dentist?
There is actually not much of a difference between a cosmetic dentist vs a regular dentist because they both do the same procedures. There aren't dental procedures that one does, which the other one doesn't.
To be quite honest, the term "cosmetic dentist" is more of a marketing phrase.
​
Let me tell you a story. Back in the day when Dr David Chen was interviewing for his post-graduate residency, one of the program directors at a Queens hospital quipped, "Is there a dentist that does non-cosmetic dentistry?"
Does cosmetic dentistry cost more?
The cost of seeing a cosmetic dentist is the same as seeing a general dentist because the procedures are identical. It is just that one dentist prefers to self identify with cosmetic dentistry.
​
Where the difference in price can come from has more to do with the type of dental office it is. If you walk into an office and it looks like it caters to celebrities, you should expect to be spending more money for your visit.
Alternatively, you could find a nice office that is not too over the top but provide quality service that also offer cosmetic dentistry. Your wallet may thank you. Our dental office, 1311 Jackson Ave dental, attempts to remove all of those additional amenities so that we can pass the cost savings onto you.
Yes, it is nice to have a spa-like experience at the dentist but I'm sure you'd rather spend the spa-like dollars at an actual spa. So go take yourself to the actual spa after your visit with us.
