At Affordable Dental East, excellent oral health is our priority. Even so, we know how amazing it feels to share a beautiful, confident smile with the world.

Tell Us About Your Dream Smile

Dr. Erik Lund is an experienced cosmetic dentist who understands that your smile is unique. He will listen carefully to your concerns to know how we can help you achieve your goals.

Problems We Solve with Cosmetic Dentistry

There's virtually no smile flaw that we can't improve with cosmetic dentistry. If you're dealing with one or more of the following, we have a solution for you!

Stained, Yellow Teeth

Professional whitening treatments can brighten your smile several shades, removing years of stains from coffee, wine, or smoking for a more youthful appearance.

Crooked Teeth

Discreet clear aligners can straighten crooked or crowded teeth without metal braces, giving you a properly aligned bite and smile that's healthier and more attractive.

Chipped Teeth

Dental bonding or veneers can repair chips and restore the natural shape of your teeth, making damage virtually invisible and protecting the tooth underneath.

Cracked or Broken Teeth

Aesthetic dental crowns improve a tooth's shape, size, or shade while supporting it and protecting it from further damage, and leaving behind a natural appearance.

Gaps Between Teeth

Bonding, veneers, or clear aligners can close unwanted spaces between teeth, creating a more uniform smile that you'll be proud to show off.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the most affordable cosmetic dentistry?

Teeth whitening and dental bonding are two of the most affordable cosmetic treatments we offer. We can typically complete either in one visit, meaning less time away from work, and they produce immediate, noticeable results that last with proper care.

Affordable Cosmetic Dental Treatments

Professional Teeth Whitening

Professional tooth whitening removes years of stains and discoloration in a single appointment. Dr. Lund applies a safe bleaching gel to your teeth, and you'll see results right away. Our take-home whitening kits are even more convenient and affordable than in-office treatment because you brighten your smile gradually at home on your schedule.

Cosmetic Dental Bonding

Bonding uses tooth-colored composite material to repair chips, close small gaps, or reshape teeth. Dr. Lund applies the material directly to your tooth, shapes it, and hardens it with a special light. The entire process usually takes 30-60 minutes per tooth, and results can last five years or longer with proper care.

Making Cosmetic Dentistry Affordable

Your insurance may cover a portion of bonding costs if we use it to repair chipped, cracked, or broken teeth rather than purely cosmetic reasons.

At Affordable Dental East, we work with every patient to make cosmetic dentistry in Indianapolis as affordable as possible. We offer Cherry financing and in-house payment plans that let you spread treatment costs into manageable monthly payments.

I want to fix my chipped tooth, but I can't afford a crown. Do I have other options?

If you have chipped a tooth, it’s easy to assume a crown is the only way to fix it. Unfortunately, for their durability and reliability, the cost associated with crowns can feel overwhelming.

The good news? Yes, there are often other effective, more affordable options. Finding the one best suited to your needs depends on the size of the chip, its location, and how much stress that tooth handles.

Affordable Alternatives to Dental Crowns

If the chip is minor and doesn’t affect function, enamel smoothing or reshaping may be enough. This involves gently polishing rough edges so the tooth looks and feels normal again. Simple, fast, budget-friendly.

For small or moderate chips, dental bonding is often the go-to solution. During the quick, uninvasive procedure, your dentist uses a tooth-colored composite resin to rebuild the chipped area, shape it naturally, and harden it with a curing light. Bonding is usually completed in one visit, costs significantly less than a crown, and blends in well with surrounding teeth.

In some cases, a tooth-colored filling can repair a chipped area, especially if decay is also present. For front teeth with cosmetic concerns, veneers may be discussed as a longer-term aesthetic option, though they’re typically more expensive than bonding, and any decay in the underlying teeth must be addressed before placement.
