Cosmetic Services Available for Harrison Patients

The Jenkins Rd office offers the full cosmetic dentistry menu. Each consultation begins with a conversation about what you want to change.

Porcelain Veneers

Thin shells of porcelain bonded to the front of your teeth. Used to change shape, length, color, and alignment in one coordinated plan. Most cases take two to three visits. Porcelain veneers commonly last 10 to 15 years with good home care.

Professional Teeth Whitening

In-office whitening lifts stains from coffee, tea, red wine, smoking, and age in one same-day appointment. Take-home tray whitening is also available. Results usually last 12 to 24 months before a touch-up is helpful.

Cosmetic Bonding

Tooth-colored composite resin used to repair chips, smooth uneven edges, close small gaps, and cover stains. Most cases are finished in one appointment.

Smile Makeovers

Combines two or more cosmetic procedures into one plan. The process starts with photos, x-rays, and a wax-up so you can see the planned result before any work begins.

Dental Crowns and Bridges

A porcelain crown on a damaged tooth produces a cosmetic result and often has restorative insurance coverage. A bridge replaces a missing tooth by anchoring to the teeth on either side.

How a Cosmetic Consultation Works

The first appointment is a conversation, not a sales pitch. You tell us what bothers you. We take photos and x-rays if needed. Dr. Peterson examines your teeth and gums, talks through the options, and gives you a written plan with cost ranges before you leave.

You take the plan home and decide.

Insurance, Financing, and New Patient Specials

We file in-network with most major PPO insurance plans at the Jenkins Rd office. Elective cosmetic work is usually not covered. Restorative work with a cosmetic outcome often has insurance coverage. We verify your specific plan benefits before the consultation.

For patients without dental insurance, we offer two new patient specials: the $125 new patient exam and x-rays, and the $199 new patient exam, x-rays, and healthy mouth cleaning. Both are first-visit-only and cannot be combined with insurance.

For larger cases, we accept CareCredit financing.

FAQ Section

Where is the closest Peterson Family Dentistry office to Harrison, TN?

The Jenkins Rd Chattanooga office at 3328 Jenkins Rd, Suite 100 is about 15 to 20 minutes from most Harrison addresses. Take Highway 58 south, then East Brainerd Rd east to Jenkins Rd. Harrison does not currently have a Peterson Family Dentistry office of its own.

What cosmetic services are offered?

Porcelain veneers, professional in-office teeth whitening, cosmetic bonding, porcelain crowns and bridges, smile makeovers, and clear aligner orthodontics. Dr. David Peterson has placed thousands of veneers over 21 years of private practice.

Can I get a smile makeover before a wedding or special event?

Yes. For weddings, reunions, professional headshots, and similar events, plan the consultation 8 to 12 weeks ahead. Whitening and bonding can be finished in 1 to 2 visits. A veneer case typically takes 4 to 6 weeks from impression to placement. Tell the office your event date at the consultation so the schedule works backward from it.

How do you handle anxiety about dental procedures?

The practice offers sedation dentistry for anxious patients. Options range from nitrous oxide (laughing gas) during the appointment to oral sedation taken before the visit. Discuss your concerns at the consultation and Dr. Peterson will explain which option fits your case and medical history.

How much do veneers cost?

Pricing varies by material (porcelain versus composite), number of teeth, and case complexity. Composite bonding is less expensive per tooth than porcelain but lasts about 5 to 7 years versus 10 to 15 for porcelain. The consultation includes itemized pricing before any work begins. We accept CareCredit financing.

Will my dental insurance cover cosmetic work?

Elective cosmetic work like whitening and elective veneers is usually not covered. Restorative procedures with a cosmetic outcome (a porcelain crown placed on a damaged tooth, for instance) often have insurance coverage. We are in-network with most major PPO plans and verify your benefits before the consultation.
