Your Cosmetic Consultation

Your smile transformation starts with a conversation. During your cosmetic consultation, Dr. Starik takes the time to understand your goals, answer your questions, and capture a detailed picture of your smile using our advanced intraoral scanner. From there, we build a custom treatment plan, walk you through each step in plain terms, and review your options for working with most PPO insurance plans, financing, and our in-house membership plan, so you can move forward with confidence and no surprises.

A Boutique Approach to Cosmetic Care

Dr. Starik built Starik Dental Studio to deliver an NYC-caliber dental experience in the heart of Bergen County. Deeply connected to the Cresskill and Demarest communities she calls home, she takes a conservative, minimally invasive approach whenever possible and treats every patient like a neighbor. Her goal is simple: healthy, natural-looking smiles delivered with honesty, warmth, and attention to detail.

Our Cosmetic Dentistry Solutions

At Starik Dental Studio, we focus on high-quality cosmetic dentistry designed with both aesthetics and long-term oral health in mind. Our team is dedicated to creating natural-looking, confident smiles through custom care, advanced cosmetic techniques, and a minimally invasive approach whenever possible.

Porcelain Veneers

Porcelain veneers are thin, custom-crafted shells bonded to the front of your teeth to correct chips, gaps, stains, and shape. They are one of the most popular ways to achieve a complete smile makeover with natural-looking, long-lasting results.

Teeth Whitening

Professional teeth whitening lifts years of stains from coffee, wine, and everyday wear to brighten your smile safely and effectively. We tailor each treatment to your sensitivity and goals for results you cannot get from over-the-counter kits.

Cosmetic Bonding

Cosmetic bonding uses tooth-colored composite resin to repair chips, close small gaps, and reshape teeth in a single visit. It is a conservative way to refine your smile while preserving your natural tooth structure.

Which Cosmetic Treatment Fits Your Smile Goals?

The right cosmetic treatment depends on what you would like to change and on the health of your teeth and gums. Dr. Starik compares your options during your visit so you are not guessing from a menu of procedures. In general, these are the concerns patients bring to our Cresskill office and the treatments that may address them.

  • Stained or dull teeth: professional teeth whitening or Zoom whitening for surface stains, with veneers or bonding as options when stains do not respond.
  • Chipped, worn, or uneven teeth: cosmetic bonding for smaller repairs, or porcelain veneers for broader changes in shape and length.
  • Gaps or crowding: Invisalign clear aligners to move teeth gradually, or veneers and bonding for minor spacing concerns.
  • A full smile refresh: a custom plan that combines treatments in a logical order, with the most important steps first.

No single option is right for everyone, which is why we start with an exam and a conversation about your goals.

Healthy Teeth Come Before Cosmetic Work

Before any cosmetic treatment begins, we look at the health of your teeth, gums, and bite. Decay, gum disease, or cracked teeth may need attention first, because cosmetic results last longer on a healthy foundation. Whitening is another good example. According to the American Dental Association, whitening only works on natural tooth enamel, so existing crowns, fillings, or bonding will not change color and may need to be matched or replaced after whitening. We would rather explain that up front than surprise you later.

Planning Your Investment and Maintaining Your Results

Most cosmetic treatments are elective, so we talk through costs, timing, and your coverage before you commit to anything. We are an out-of-network practice that works with most PPO plans, and we offer financing options and an in-house membership plan for patients without insurance. How long your results last depends on the treatment and your daily habits, so Dr. Starik will also review home care, regular checkups, and ways to protect your investment. When you are ready, you can request a cosmetic consultation online or call (201) 568-6688.

Frequently Asked Questions

Not sure what to expect from cosmetic dentistry? Here are honest answers to the questions our patients ask most often, so you can feel informed and ready before your visit to Starik Dental Studio.

How can I book a cosmetic dentistry consultation in Cresskill, NJ?

Ready to refine your smile? Schedule your cosmetic consultation by calling (201) 568-6688 or filling out our online contact form today.

We offer porcelain veneers, professional teeth whitening, Zoom whitening, Invisalign clear aligners, cosmetic bonding, and full smile makeovers, all customized to your goals and completed in our boutique Cresskill office.

Most cosmetic treatments are elective and not fully covered by insurance, though some restorative procedures may qualify. We are an out-of-network practice that works with most PPO plans and will file claims on your behalf. We also offer financing options and an in-house membership plan.

Results vary by treatment. With proper care, veneers can last well over a decade, while whitening may be refreshed periodically, since coffee, tea, red wine, and tobacco can darken teeth again over time. Dr. Starik will walk you through what to expect during your consultation.

Bonding uses tooth-colored composite resin shaped directly on the tooth, often in a single visit and with little to no enamel removal. Veneers are thin, custom-made shells, typically porcelain, that cover the front of the tooth and usually require removing a small amount of enamel. Bonding is often suited to smaller repairs, while veneers may be a better fit for broader changes in color, shape, or alignment. Dr. Starik will recommend the right option after your exam.

Most adults with generally healthy teeth and gums are candidates for at least one cosmetic option. If you have decay, gum disease, or a cracked tooth, we will usually treat that first so your cosmetic results last. Your consultation includes an exam and a conversation about your goals, so we can recommend the treatments that fit your smile and your budget.
