Smile makeovers for Upper Freehold, Allentown, and Cream Ridge patients, from Drs. Bookman, Goldberg, and Seto at Artistic Dental.
Upper Freehold Township is horse country, with open farmland, Walnford, and the historic streets of Allentown, along with the quieter villages of Cream Ridge and Imlaystown. People here tend to value straightforward advice and work that holds up, and that is the approach we bring to a smile makeover in Upper Freehold. You will get a clear plan, an honest explanation of each option, and results designed to last.
Artistic Dental welcomes Upper Freehold dental patients to our Jackson Township office. Dr. Miryam Bookman, Dr. Jason M. Goldberg, and Dr. Ariane Seto work as a team, combining cosmetic dentistry, restorative care, and implants in one plan.
A smile makeover is a plan, not a product. It uses a mix of treatments to change how your teeth look and feel, and the mix depends on what you want and what your mouth needs. Your plan could be as simple as whitening and one repair, or as involved as new crowns, veneers, and implants.
What ties every plan together is sequence. We handle health first, then structure, then appearance, so each step supports the next.
These three treatments often come up when patients want to change how a tooth looks. They overlap, but they are not the same.
| Treatment | How much tooth is changed | Often chosen for |
|---|---|---|
| Dental bonding | Typically little or none | Small chips, minor gaps, and quick touch-ups |
| Porcelain veneers | Usually a thin layer of enamel | Reshaping the color, size, or shape of visible front teeth |
| Dental crowns | More, because the crown covers the whole tooth | Teeth that are cracked, heavily filled, or weakened |
Your exam tells us which one fits each tooth. In many makeovers, we use more than one.
Between farm work, horses, school activities, and commutes, free hours are scarce. We aim to make visits count by grouping steps where it is safe to do so and by explaining ahead of time how long each appointment is likely to run. Digital impressions with Cerec Primescan and imaging done at our office cut down on the back-and-forth that can slow treatment.
Exam Day
Imaging, a bite and gum check, and an open conversation about your goals and calendar.
Plan Review
A written plan with phases and estimated costs, so you can choose what to start with.
Treatment Phases
Work in a logical order, with checkups so your results stay on track.
If you have lost one or more teeth, implants may be a stable foundation for the rest of your plan. Dr. Goldberg focuses on implant dentistry, and a 3D CBCT scan lets us see bone and nearby structures before we recommend anything. You can read more about dental implants and our full-arch option, All-on-4.
Your cost depends on the teeth involved, the materials, and the treatments. We review estimates after your exam and itemize them by phase. Cosmetic treatments are often not covered by dental insurance, but restorative parts of a plan may be partly covered. CareCredit financing and our savings plan are available.
Our office is at 180 N County Line Road in Jackson. The drive from Upper Freehold usually takes roughly 25 minutes depending on your starting point and traffic. Many patients from neighboring Allentown and Cream Ridge make the same trip for makeover care.
Dr. Ariane Seto holds a Fellowship in the Academy of General Dentistry, Dr. Miryam Bookman brings everyday and cosmetic experience, and Dr. Goldberg is a member of the Jersey Shore University Medical Center Dental Education Program. The New Jersey Department of Health offers public health resources for residents who want more background on oral health.
Here are common questions from Upper Freehold patients.
Not necessarily. A single tooth may need only bonding or a crown, and we will say so if that is all you need.
Bonding uses tooth-colored resin and typically removes little tooth structure, while veneers are porcelain shells that usually need a thin layer of enamel removed.
Yes. Many patients begin with the most important steps and add others over time.
No. We are in Jackson Township, and Upper Freehold is part of the areas we serve.
Nitrous oxide and oral conscious sedation may be options for patients who feel anxious, and we talk through them at your consultation.
Bring any dental records, your insurance information, and photos of your smile from the past if you have them. None of these are required to get started.
A conversation costs you nothing and can make your options much clearer. We examine, explain, and give you a written plan to take home.
