Learn More About Our Popular Treatments
Veneers
Dental veneers are custom-made shells we bond to the front of a tooth. Our Mandan-area dentist favors da Vinci Veneers™ made from porcelain ceramic to achieve the most natural-looking results. Veneers are a versatile treatment option. We can use them to correct tooth stains, chips, mild misalignment, and more. Best of all, the procedure is fast and easy, taking just two appointments at our Bismarck, ND, dental office.
Smile Makeover
If you are looking for more extensive dental enhancement, consider a smile makeover. Rather than undergo several procedures separately, our dentist can combine the techniques into a single streamlined treatment. Smile makeovers not only save you time but money too. Undergoing all your procedures at once can reduce material waste and office visits, giving you a better value for the same results.
Dental Bonding
Dental bonding is a composite resin we use to repair minor tooth problems like cracks, gaps, and discoloration. Our dentist will layer the bonding over the tooth and sculpt the material into a natural-looking size and shape. While bonding doesn't typically last as long as veneers, it can be a great cosmetic option for patients looking for a low-commitment and affordable option.
Invisalign
Clear aligners have revolutionized orthodontics, giving our Bismarck and Mandan patients a more discreet way to straighten their teeth. Our dentist offers Invisalign, a system of aligner trays that gently push the teeth into the proper position. The trays are removable, allowing you to keep the same dietary and lifestyle habits. Ask Dr. Heringer if Invisalign can work for you.
Invisalign Makes It Easy to Achieve a Stunning Smile
It's Straightforward
Invisalign is incredibly simple. Just wear your aligners for 22 hours a day, and switch them out as directed. Thanks to its discreet, uncomplicated design, it's no wonder why it's our most popular cosmetic treatment.
It's Comfortable and Convenient
With Invisalign, you won't need uncomfortable tightening appointments, just periodic visits to check your progress. Plus, instead of struggling with food stuck in brackets or wires, you have easy-to-clean aligners.
It Primes You for Long-Term Success
When you finish with your clear aligner treatment, it's time to move on to a retainer. You'll have the care and wear down pat, because retainers work just like Invisalign — only you just have to wear them at night. Because you'll be in the habit already, you may find it easier to maintain your results.

We Focus on Your Comfort
/
No matter the procedure you choose, your comfort will always come first. That's because we strive to make the process of cosmetic dentistry treatment virtually painless at our Bismarck dental office. Our dentist accomplishes this by administering numbing local anesthesia when needed for cosmetic dentistry procedures.
Technology Spotlight: Waterlase Laser Dentistry
Our gums can help balance the harmony of our smile. When that ratio is off, your smile may not be able to shine. Dr. Heringer addresses that concern directly using safe, sterile Waterlase technology. Dr. Heringer was among the first dentists to bring Waterlase technology to our state, and even received Waterlase Mastership from the World Clinical Laser Institute (WCLI), a level of training few dentists reach.
Flexible Financing Makes Cosmetic Treatment Affordable
Cosmetic dentistry is typically not covered by insurance. However, we don't want this to be an obstacle between you and life-changing cosmetic care from our experienced dentist.
At our Bismarck dentistry practice, you have the option to secure financing through CareCredit® or GreenSky®. These lenders offer loans with little or no interest and flexible monthly payment plans that can help treatment fit more comfortably into your budget.
Want more options? We also take most major credit cards and cash.

View on GoogleAm I a Good Candidate For Cosmetic Dentistry?
The only way to know for sure is to visit Dr. Heringer. However, it may help to know that cosmetic treatment may not be recommended if:
You Are Pregnant
Patients should wait to undergo these treatments until after pregnancy, as it can affect your tooth and gum health.
You Have Damage & Decay
These issues should be treated first. We may be able to help with options like crowns, fillings, or even full mouth reconstruction.
You Suffer From Gum Disease
Gum disease can weaken nearby tissues and put your teeth at risk. Luckily, we feature periodontal care to improve your gum health.
Have Oral Health Concerns? We Offer Restorative Treatment
We recommend patients treat their oral health concerns before undergoing cosmetic dentistry treatment. If decay and disease are present, they are a more pressing matter and can even hinder the healing process after cosmetic work. A few restorative treatments we may recommend to patients struggling with oral health concerns include:
Dental implants are threaded metal or ceramic posts secured in your gums and jaw to replace your artificial tooth roots. Our dentist coordinates with trusted Bismarck-area professionals to place your dental implant. After you heal, he can restore that implant with a crown, denture, or bridge.
We primarily use crowns to protect decayed or compromised teeth, but they can also be used cosmetically. Have outdated metal crowns or fillings? Our dentist can replace them with more natural-looking alternatives, like stunning tooth-colored crowns and fillings that blend in with your smile.
FAQs About Cosmetic Dentistry
Do I need a veneer or a crown?
You'll need to visit Dr. Heringer to find out for sure. Until then, we can go over a few quick distinguishing factors. For example, crowns can be placed over all kinds of teeth, while veneers can only go over your front flat teeth. Additionally, crowns can treat both restorative and cosmetic concerns, while veneers simply help with aesthetic insecurities.
Can cosmetic dentistry improve my oral health?
The goal of cosmetic dental care is to improve the look of your smile, rather than its health or function. However, you may notice improvements in your oral health as a happy bonus to your upgraded smile. For instance, Invisalign patients may find it easier to brush and floss all corners of a tooth's surface after their smile is aligned with orthodontic dental care.
Why isn't most cosmetic dentistry covered by insurance?
Cosmetic dentistry is not covered by most insurance plans because the procedures are not considered medically necessary. A procedure like teeth whitening will not improve the function of your smile, only its appearance. Depending on your insurance plan, Invisalign and braces may be covered, but often procedures like these often have a cut-off age that keeps coverage limited to kids and teens.
