How can we help you?
We believe that we can provide the highest quality dentistry when our patients are an active part of the decision-making process. Answering your questions isn't just a courtesy—it gives us an opportunity to explain things to you in such a way that you feel confident about the information you're receiving and what it means to you and the direction of your oral health care. No question is too small, and the only silly question is the one that goes unasked.
We've shared a few of the questions we hear most often below. You probably have plenty of your own, though, so please don't ever hesitate to contact our West Chester dental office, and we'll find the answers you're looking for.
Cosmetic Dentistry
Unfortunately, most dental insurance plans don't cover procedures they consider cosmetic dentistry, like porcelain veneers or professional teeth whitening. However, they will likely cover a portion of a dental crown or filling that might be included in your cosmetic treatment plan. So you may receive some benefits for specific procedures.
Other Payment Options
If the cost of treatment is a concern for you, we're happy to work with you to find ways to fit your cosmetic dentistry into your budget comfortably. Dr. Koch works with third-party financing companies like CareCredit and Springstone to help patients break the cost of their treatment into affordable monthly payments.
Dr. Koch is also proud to extend a seven percent discount for patients who pay for their treatment in full with cash, check, or credit cards. In addition, senior patients will receive a ten percent savings on their dental services.
If you're interested in learning more about what's possible for your smile with cosmetic dentistry in West Chester, OH, we invite you to schedule an initial evaluation with Dr. Koch to discuss your options. Along with your treatment plan, we'll also talk about easy ways for you to comfortably fit your treatment into your budget.

Dentistry and the materials we use are always evolving and improving. Today, a cosmetic dentist has several options for resolving chipped, cracked, or broken teeth. One of them is cosmetic dental bonding at our West Chester, OH dental office, which is an affordable alternative to porcelain veneers.
Problems We Fix with Dental Bonding
There are all sorts of smile flaws that can bother you, but many of them are minor. For example, a chipped tooth may that’s not noticeable to anyone else is all you see when you look in the mirror.
Some of the smile imperfections we conceal with dental bonding are:
- Chipped teeth
- Broken teeth
- Oddly shaped teeth
- Uneven gaps between teeth
- Severe tooth staining
- Teeth that appear too short
Dental Bonding – An Easy Process
Dental bonding is affordable because the material is the same we use for white tooth-colored fillings, and the process itself is straightforward. In fact, bonding is so easy that we can often treat several teeth during one appointment. And, since the procedure is non-invasive, there’s no need to numb your mouth.
To make the repair, Dr. Koch uses a custom-shaded, tooth-colored material that’s a mixture of glass and resin particles. He custom shades it to match neighboring teeth and shapes it on your tooth to achieve the natural-looking results you desire.
If you care for your teeth properly and visit us for routine dental cleanings and exams, dental bonding can last as long as five years.

If you need a dental crown in West Chester, OH, it means you have:
- A weak or vulnerable tooth at risk for breakage
- Completed a root canal treatment
- A tooth flaw you’d like to conceal
- Decided on tooth replacement—single dental implant or bridge
A dental crown is a hollow, tooth-shaped shield that fits over your treated tooth. We design your dental crown to look like your natural teeth and to restore function.
The cost of your dental crown depends on many factors, including:
- Dental crown material—We offer gold, porcelain, or porcelain meets metal tooth crowns.
- Insurance coverage—Insurance may pay some or all of the cost based on policy language and purpose.
- Reason for the crown—A crown for a dental implant may be priced differently than a post-root canal crown.
At your consultation, your dentist discusses the various dental crown options with you—including the cost—to help you make an informed choice for your smile and budget.
