Cosmetic Treatments We Offer in Carnegie Hill
What cosmetic dental treatments does Park Smiles NYC offer?
Park Smiles NYC offers a full range of cosmetic dental treatments — from teeth whitening and porcelain veneers to dental implants, crowns, and tooth-colored fillings — all under one roof in Carnegie Hill. The right combination depends on your goals, and our prosthodontists will walk you through the options at your consultation.
- Porcelain Veneers — Custom porcelain shells bonded to the front of teeth to correct chips, gaps, and stubborn discoloration for a uniform, natural-looking smile.
- Professional Teeth Whitening — In-office, professional-grade whitening that lifts deep stains far more effectively than over-the-counter kits.
- Dental Implants — Titanium posts that replace a missing tooth root and support a crown, bridge, or denture that looks and functions like a natural tooth.
- Porcelain Crowns — Custom caps that restore the shape, strength, and appearance of a damaged or weakened tooth while blending with your natural teeth.
- CEREC Same-Day Crowns — Digitally designed and milled crowns completed in a single visit — no temporaries and no second appointment.
- Tooth-Colored (Composite) Fillings — Mercury-free fillings that blend seamlessly with your enamel and can replace old metal fillings.
- Fixed Dental Bridges — Replace one or more missing teeth with a stable, natural-looking restoration anchored to neighboring teeth or implants.
- All-on-6 Dental Implants — A full arch of replacement teeth supported by six strategically placed implants, for patients missing most or all of their teeth.
- Implant-Supported Dentures — Secure dentures anchored by implants for noticeably better comfort, stability, and chewing confidence than traditional dentures.
- Implant Site Preparation — Supporting procedures such as bone grafting, ridge augmentation, and sinus lift surgery rebuild the foundation needed for long-lasting implant results.
This isn’t an exhaustive list, and we may recommend other treatments based on your needs. When planning your care, we consider tooth shape, size, and color alongside your bite, oral health, and personal preferences — so the result looks natural and functions well.
What dental problems can cosmetic dentistry fix?
Cosmetic dentistry can address chips and cracks, gaps, discoloration, misshapen or worn teeth, and missing teeth — concerns that affect both the look of your smile and, often, your oral health. If any of the following sound familiar, a consultation is a good next step:
- Chipped or cracked teeth
- Gaps and uneven spacing
- Stains and discoloration that don’t respond to whitening
- Misshapen, worn, or short teeth
- One or more missing teeth
Because many of these issues also affect bite, chewing, and how easily you can keep teeth clean, our prosthodontists evaluate function alongside appearance — so improvements hold up over time rather than masking a problem.
Why Choose Park Smiles NYC for Cosmetic Dentistry in Carnegie Hill?
Park Smiles NYC pairs specialist-level prosthodontic training with a calm, unhurried Carnegie Hill setting — so your cosmetic care is both highly skilled and genuinely personal.
Prosthodontist-led care. Cosmetic and restorative dentistry is the specialty focus of Dr. Shari Ginsburg and Dr. Krystle Kendall. That training matters most on complex work — full-mouth rehabilitation, implant restorations, and multi-tooth smile makeovers — where appearance and bite have to be planned together.
One patient at a time. We don’t double-book appointments, so each visit receives our full attention from consultation through treatment.
See your smile before you commit. Using digital smile design, we can preview your potential result, so you know what to expect before treatment begins. Digital 3D imaging and intraoral scanners also replace messy traditional impressions for a more comfortable visit.
A true Carnegie Hill practice. Our office sits at 1175 Park Avenue, at 93rd Street, in the heart of historic Carnegie Hill. We’re a short walk from Museum Mile — the Guggenheim, Cooper Hewitt, and the Jewish Museum are all nearby — and just a few blocks from the eastern edge of Central Park.

Many of our patients are families from the surrounding Carnegie Hill neighborhood and nearby schools.

How Much Does Cosmetic Dentistry Cost on the Upper East Side?
The cost of cosmetic dentistry depends on the treatment and how many teeth are involved. In Manhattan, porcelain veneers commonly range from about $2,000 to $4,500 per tooth, while professional whitening and bonding cost considerably less. Because every smile is different, the only way to know your investment is a consultation and exam.
As a general Manhattan guide, pricing tends to run roughly: composite bonding $300–$800 per tooth, porcelain veneers $2,000–$4,500 per tooth, and porcelain crowns $1,500–$3,000 per tooth.Â
Most purely cosmetic treatments are elective and not covered by dental insurance, though restorative procedures such as crowns or implants may be partially covered when they’re medically necessary. We also offer flexible payment options, including Cherry “buy now, pay later” plans. For a detailed breakdown, see our guide to what veneers cost in Manhattan.
Cosmetic Dentistry FAQs
Cosmetic dentistry is the branch of dentistry focused on improving the appearance of your teeth, gums, and smile. It includes treatments like teeth whitening, veneers, bonding, and tooth-colored crowns. Many cosmetic procedures also improve function and oral health, making teeth stronger and easier to keep clean.
Costs vary by treatment and the number of teeth involved. In Manhattan, professional whitening is the most affordable option, composite bonding runs roughly $300–$800 per tooth, and porcelain veneers typically range from about $2,000–$4,500 per tooth. A consultation provides an accurate, personalized estimate for your smile.
Veneers are thin shells that cover only the front surface of a tooth, ideal for cosmetic concerns like stains, chips, or gaps. Crowns cover the entire tooth and add structural support, making them better for teeth that are cracked, heavily decayed, or weakened. Your dentist recommends the right option after an exam.
With good care, porcelain veneers commonly last 10 to 15 years or longer, while composite veneers typically last around 5 to 7 years. Brushing twice daily, flossing, avoiding habits like nail-biting or chewing ice, and keeping up with regular dental visits all help extend their lifespan.
Most cosmetic treatments are comfortable. Whitening and bonding are generally painless, and any procedure involving tooth preparation is performed with local anesthesia. Some patients notice mild, temporary sensitivity afterward that usually fades within a few days. Let your dentist know about any anxiety so they can keep you comfortable.
Purely cosmetic procedures, such as elective veneers or whitening, are usually not covered by dental insurance. However, restorative treatments like crowns, fillings, or implants may be partially covered when they’re medically necessary. We can help review your benefits and discuss financing options before treatment begins.
Most healthy adults are candidates for cosmetic dentistry. The best results start with healthy teeth and gums, so your dentist first checks for issues like decay or gum disease and treats them before cosmetic work. A consultation determines which treatments fit your goals, oral health, and budget.
It depends on your main concern. Whitening is best for overall staining on otherwise healthy teeth. Bonding is a cost-effective fix for minor chips, gaps, or small flaws. Veneers offer the most dramatic, long-lasting transformation and can correct several cosmetic issues at once. A consultation helps match the treatment to your smile.
Your cosmetic care is provided by our prosthodontists, Dr. Shari Ginsburg and Dr. Krystle Kendall — dental specialists with advanced training in cosmetic and restorative dentistry. For complex cases, they collaborate with our on-site specialists in orthodontics, periodontics, and oral surgery, all within our Carnegie Hill office.
