Cosmetic Dentistry Frequently Asked Questions

Composite Bonding FAQs

With good care, composite bonding can last 5–7 years or longer. Brushing, flossing, regular dental check-ups, and avoiding habits like biting hard objects can help protect your results.

How much does composite bonding cost in Mount Pleasant, SC?

The cost of composite bonding varies depending on the number of teeth being treated and your individual smile goals. Expertise Dental will provide a clear treatment plan and pricing after your consultation.

Care for bonded teeth by brushing and flossing daily, attending regular dental visits, and avoiding biting hard foods or objects such as ice, pens, or fingernails.

Do veneers damage teeth?

Veneers do not damage healthy teeth when they are properly planned and placed. Only minimal preparation is usually required, helping to preserve your natural tooth structure.

Are veneers painful?

Veneer treatment is comfortable and usually pain-free. Most patients report little to no discomfort during the procedure.

How much do veneers cost in Mount Pleasant, SC?

The cost of veneers depends on your treatment plan, the number of teeth being treated, and the type of veneers recommended. Expertise Dental will provide exact costs during your consultation.

How long does veneer treatment take?

Veneer treatment usually takes 2–3 visits, depending on your individual treatment plan and the number of veneers being placed.

After dealing with several complex dental issues for over four years, I felt overwhelmed and stuck. Coordinating care across multiple providers felt overwhelming, and I struggled to find someone with the right combination of advanced training and experience who could truly help.When I first came... across Expertise Dental, I was nervous just making that initial phone call. But from the very first conversation with Jenna at the front desk, I felt genuinely heard and supported. She was patient, kind, and clearly understood exactly what I was describing — something that had been missing in previous calls.What stood out immediately is that Expertise Dental is a true team of skilled dentists with different specialties who work together to create a comprehensive plan. After following their Instagram for a while and seeing their commitment to ongoing learning and advanced training, it built trust in their expertise.My first consultation brought such a deep sense of relief. Joyce made me feel completely at ease with her clear explanations and caring manner. Dr. Melissa Minger Swanson, who is handling my case, has a gentle, thoughtful approach that truly touched me — she combines real skill with such kindness. Every single team member I’ve interacted with — from Randi, who made the photos such a breeze, to Mandi, who’s been so helpful with questions and billing —each member has been professional, patient, and detail-oriented.The entire office runs smoothly -it’s clear a tremendous amount of thoughtful care and hard work has gone into building this practice.I’m so grateful to Dr. Amanda Seay for creating this collaborative, high-level environment and to Dr. Swanson for the confidence I now have moving forward with my treatment.I'm really looking forward to seeing the comprehensive plan Dr. Melissa Minger- Swanson and her team develop for me and continuing this journey with them.Update** Just completed the second visit to Expertise Dental, and they continue to exceed every expectation. This is a practice built on deep roots of knowledge. Dr. Swanson deeply studies each patient and crafts a plan with genuine care. I have a misaligned bite, which has been affecting my breathing and sleep. Dr. Swanson designed for me a custom Kois Deprogrammer device- which has already boosted the quality of my life via significantly deeper nose breathing and sleep. Looking forward to the next steps!read more

Always a good experience with Randy!! I have back issues and she ensures that I am comfortable in the chair.

Beth was my hygentist today. She welcomed me with a heated pad for the back of my neck and covered my shirt with a soft towel before adding the splash protection. She was gentle and thorough using a water pick prior to using the metal pick. This was to clear any bacteria first. We had a nice... conversation. Beth was born in Iowa but she is much too ladylike to live on a farm. Her husband is an insurance unwriter from Memphis. They have 2 boys ages 8 and 10. They left Kansas City to move closer to their favorite vacation place - Pawleys Is. And some of their family followed. Beth has hazel eyes that as she says looks like a muddy river. I think!In any event, she is the best and I feel blessed to have her take care of me. Thanks Beth!!read more
