A smile transformation is a meaningful investment in your appearance, confidence, and quality of life. Although crowns, veneers, bridges, and onlays are designed for durability, no dentist can predict exactly how long an individual restoration will last because oral health, habits, bite forces, and unexpected accidents can all influence its longevity.
At The Cosmetic Dentists of Austin, our commitment does not end when your treatment is complete. If an eligible restoration we placed breaks, becomes loose, is damaged, or comes off, our Last Time You Pay Policy allows us to repair or replace it at no charge when the policy requirements are met.
We believe exceptional cosmetic dentistry should be supported by exceptional accountability. Our Last Time You Pay Policy is one of the ways we stand behind the quality of our treatment and provide greater confidence in your investment. Whether your restoration is damaged through everyday use or an unexpected accident, we want you to know that the team that designed your smile will be here to help protect it. The policy applies to eligible restorations placed by The Cosmetic Dentists of Austin, including:
Beautiful dental work is created to be enjoyed, not treated as something too delicate for everyday life. Even with excellent care, unexpected events can happen. Regardless of who is at fault, an eligible crown, bridge, porcelain veneer, or onlay may be repaired or replaced at no charge when all policy requirements are satisfied. Our Last Time You Pay Policy includes eligible damage caused by accidental trauma, such as:
We stand behind the restorations we create, and maintaining that protection requires your participation. Routine professional care allows potential concerns to be identified early and helps preserve the health of the natural teeth supporting your restorations. Following these requirements helps us care for your smile proactively and protect the foundation beneath your restorations. To remain eligible under the Last Time You Pay Policy:
Our Last Time You Pay Policy covers the repair or replacement of qualifying crowns, bridges, porcelain veneers, and onlays placed by The Cosmetic Dentists of Austin. The policy does not cover damage caused by recurrent decay. It also does not cover additional treatment that may become necessary when a restoration is repaired or replaced.
For example, if the affected tooth requires a root canal, extraction, or another procedure, that treatment will involve an additional fee. The natural tooth must also be savable for the restoration to qualify for repair or replacement under the policy. Our team will evaluate the affected area, explain the available options, and review any additional treatment needs before proceeding.
Your final polishing and bite-adjustment appointment is an important part of completing your treatment. It allows our team to refine how your restorations feel, evaluate how your teeth come together, and make any final adjustments needed to support your results. Your twice-yearly professional cleanings are equally important.
These visits help protect your natural teeth and gums while allowing your dentist to identify decay, changes in your bite, or concerns involving your restorations before they become more serious. You are welcome to complete these cleanings with your local dentist. If that dentist discovers a problem involving our treatment, contact The Cosmetic Dentists of Austin promptly so we can determine the appropriate next step.
We approach every smile with the understanding that exceptional results depend on more than what happens during treatment. They also depend on careful planning, a healthy foundation, appropriate maintenance, and a dental team willing to stand behind its work.
The Last Time You Pay Policy reflects the standard we bring to every eligible crown, bridge, porcelain veneer, and onlay. It provides the reassurance that if the unexpected happens, you can return to the team that knows your smile and created your restorations.
Designing a confident smile is a personal art, and it starts with understanding you. Schedule time with our team to experience the world-class skill and bespoke approach that can reshape how you see yourself, one detail at a time.
