Cosmetic Dentistry in New Orleans

25 clinics · ranked by rating & reviews · updated 2026

Cosmetic dentistry covers the treatments people book to change how their smile looks - veneers, teeth whitening, bonding, smile makeovers and tooth-colored crowns. Most practices in this directory offer several of these under one roof, which matters because bigger smile plans are usually quoted as a package rather than per menu item. When comparing clinics, look at how they present their work: before-and-after galleries of their own patients, clear per-tooth or per-treatment pricing, and a consultation that ends with a written quote. Google review volume is a useful first filter - established cosmetic practices tend to have long review histories. Confirm treatment options and pricing at a consultation with a licensed dentist.

Below are 25 dental clinics offering cosmetic dentistry in New Orleans, LA, ranked by Google review volume so you can start with the most established options and contact them directly. The most-reviewed is Canal Street Family Dentistry (4.8★, 416 Google reviews).

FAQ

Cosmetic Dentistry in New Orleans - common questions

How many clinics offer cosmetic dentistry in New Orleans? +

Who has the best-rated cosmetic dentistry in New Orleans? +

By Google review volume, Canal Street Family Dentistry is the most-reviewed cosmetic dentistry clinic in New Orleans (4.8★, 416 reviews). Rankings follow review count, not paid placement.

How much does cosmetic dentistry cost? +

It depends on the treatment mix: in-office whitening typically runs $300-800, porcelain veneers about $900-2,500 per tooth, and crowns $800-2,500 each. Multi-treatment smile makeovers are usually priced as a package. Ask for an itemized written quote at a consultation with a licensed dentist.

How do I choose a cosmetic dentist? +

Look at before-and-after photos of the practice's own patients, Google review volume and rating, and whether the office provides a written treatment plan with itemized pricing. Comparing quotes from two or three consultations is normal and worth the time.

Does dental insurance cover cosmetic dentistry? +

Most plans treat purely cosmetic work such as whitening or veneers as elective and don't cover it, though restorative parts of a plan (like crowns) may be partially covered. Many practices offer financing or payment plans - ask what the office accepts when you book a consultation.

How much do dental implants cost in New Orleans? +

A single dental implant (implant, abutment and crown) in New Orleans typically runs $2,800-$6,000. Full-arch All-on-4 treatment usually starts around $15,000-$17,000 per arch. These are typical ranges, not quotes - confirm your itemized total at a consultation.

Does the LSU dental school in New Orleans offer lower-cost care? +

Yes - LSU Health School of Dentistry clinics treat patients at significant discounts under faculty supervision, including implants and dentures. Expect more visits and longer timelines than private practice; for flexible patients it is the best value in Louisiana.

How do I choose an implant dentist in New Orleans? +

Verify a periodontist, prosthodontist or oral surgeon performs placement, expect CT/3D imaging, and compare itemized quotes from both the city and Metairie or the Northshore - the same work often prices differently across the parish line.

Which New Orleans areas have the most dental clinics? +

Uptown and the Garden District lead in the city, with the largest suburban clusters in Metairie, Kenner and the Northshore (Mandeville/Covington). The ranked list below covers the metro by reviews.
