What Is Cosmetic and Restorative Dentistry?

Cosmetic dentistry focuses on improving the appearance of your teeth, gums, and smile. This includes treatments like teeth whitening, veneers, bonding, and Invisalign. Restorative dentistry, on the other hand, focuses on repairing damaged or missing teeth to restore function, health, and comfort.

Our Cosmetic & Restorative Dentistry Services


Professional Teeth Whitening

Brighten your smile by several shades in just one visit! Our in-office whitening treatments remove years of stains caused by coffee, tea, wine, or aging. We also offer take-home whitening kits with custom trays for patients who prefer at-home flexibility.

Invisalign Clear Aligners

Straighten your teeth without metal braces. Invisalign is a discreet, comfortable solution that uses a series of clear aligners to gently move your teeth into ideal alignment. Great for adults and teens in Madison, AL who want a straighter smile without the hassle of traditional braces. Learn more about Invisalign

Tooth-Colored Fillings

Replace old metal fillings with modern composite materials that match the color of your teeth. These fillings preserve more natural tooth structure and offer better aesthetics.

Porcelain Veneers

Custom-crafted porcelain veneers are a long-lasting way to cover chipped, discolored, misshapen, or slightly misaligned teeth. Veneers are bonded to the front surfaces of teeth, giving you a flawless, uniform appearance with natural translucency and strength.

Dental Bonding

A quick and affordable cosmetic fix for chipped or uneven teeth, bonding uses tooth-colored resin to sculpt and repair small flaws. It’s a non-invasive way to improve your smile in a single visit.

Dental Crowns

Dental crowns restore teeth that are cracked, decayed, or weakened. We offer tooth-colored crowns made from porcelain or ceramic for natural-looking, long-lasting restorations that blend in seamlessly with your smile.

Dental Bridges

A dental bridge fills the gap left by one or more missing teeth. Anchored to adjacent teeth or dental implants, bridges restore bite function and complete your smile.

Dental Implant Restorations

If you've had implants placed by a specialist, APEX Dental provides custom implant crowns that look and feel like natural teeth. We work with local oral surgeons and periodontists for seamless implant care coordination.

Full Mouth Reconstruction

If you have extensive damage, missing teeth, or bite issues, our full mouth reconstruction service combines restorative and cosmetic treatments into a comprehensive plan tailored to your needs. We rebuild your smile step-by-step with precision and care.

Smile Makeovers

A smile makeover is a customized combination of treatments—like veneers, Invisalign, whitening, and crowns—designed to improve aesthetics, alignment, and symmetry. We use digital imaging and consultation to help you visualize your results before we begin.

Cosmetic & Restorative Dentistry FAQs

Cosmetic dentistry focuses on improving the appearance of your smile, while restorative dentistry repairs or replaces damaged and missing teeth. At APEX Dental in Madison, AL, our team often blends both approaches to deliver beautiful, functional, and long-lasting results.
Yes! APEX Dental offers Invisalign for both teens and adults. This clear aligner system gently straightens teeth without metal wires or brackets, offering a discreet and comfortable way to achieve a straighter smile.
While cosmetic treatments like veneers, bonding, and whitening can last many years, they may eventually require maintenance or touch-ups. With proper care and regular checkups at APEX Dental, your results can remain beautiful for a decade or more.
Restorative treatments such as crowns, bridges, and fillings are often partially covered by dental insurance. Cosmetic procedures like veneers or whitening are typically not, but APEX Dental will review your insurance benefits and discuss flexible financing options during your consultation.
With good oral hygiene and regular dental visits, veneers and crowns can last 10–15 years or longer. Avoiding hard foods, using a nightguard, and maintaining professional cleanings at APEX Dental can help preserve your investment.
Absolutely. Many patients choose to combine treatments like Invisalign, whitening, veneers, and restorative work to achieve a complete smile transformation. APEX Dental will create a personalized plan that fits your goals, timeline, and budget.

Getting started is easy! Call APEX Dental or request an appointment online. During your consultation, we’ll discuss your goals, review your options, and design a personalized cosmetic or restorative treatment plan tailored to your smile.

When to Call APEX Dental

You Have Tooth Pain That Won’t Go Away
Persistent tooth pain may signal decay, infection, or nerve irritation. Left untreated, it can lead to more serious dental issues. A visit to your dentist ensures proper diagnosis and relief.
You Have Bleeding When You Brush or Floss
If your gums bleed during daily brushing or flossing, it may indicate inflammation or early-stage gum disease. Timely evaluation helps reverse the problem before it becomes severe.
You’ve Missed Your Regular Cleaning
Skipping your scheduled dental cleaning can allow plaque buildup, which may lead to gum disease and cavities. Regular visits help maintain a healthy mouth and catch issues early.
Your Crown or Filling Is Loose
A loose crown or filling exposes your tooth to bacteria, sensitivity, and damage. Prompt repair protects your tooth’s structure and prevents more invasive treatment down the line.
You’re Experiencing Jaw Pain or Clicking
Clicking, stiffness, or pain in your jaw could be signs of TMJ issues or joint dysfunction. A dentist can assess the cause and offer relief through proper therapy or appliances.
You’ve Noticed Receding Gums
Gum recession exposes tooth roots and increases sensitivity and risk of decay. Early intervention can prevent further tissue loss and protect your smile’s foundation.
You’re Grinding Your Teeth at Night
Nighttime grinding wears down enamel, causes jaw soreness, and may lead to cracked teeth. A custom-fitted night guard can reduce damage and improve comfort while you sleep.

Dr. English is the best dentist I've ever been to. I have a terrible fear of dental work and a low tolerance for pain. Dr. English has given me numbing shots and I literally don't feel a thing! That is a WIN!!! Also the atmosphere is very fun and relaxed! If you're looking for a great dentist, this is the place for you!!

Jacob M.
★★★★★

I've been going to Dr English for about 8 years now. I trust him implicitly with my teeth where I have several dental issues from years of health problems and don't trust just anyone working in my mouth. His work is excellent, and his staff have always been quite pleasant and professional.

The Strong Family
★★★★★

After my first visit with Dr. English I now have a very positive outlook on my dental care. His bedside manner cannot be beat. The hygienist was knowledgeable and kind. She kept me updated on everything that was about to happen. From the moment I walked in, the experience was positive.

Peyton
★★★★★

Exceptional experience. I had a dental emergency. Very informed and informative staff. Folks treat ya like friends rather than numbers. I have never had a better dental visit in my entire life. Dr. Dutton is excellent—super friendly and he explained everything in detail. My partner and I will definitely be moving to Apex with the kids.
