I accompanied an elderly friend to a series of appointments to replace a broken denture. At age 99 and a nursing home resident, she is unable to complete this review herself but she is very happy with the care she received.

I would not hesitate to use his services should the need arise and highly recommend his practice.

I had some dental work done in California and was left with a complete occlusal mess and a great deal of pain. I needed to find a dentist locally who could correct the work- I saw several dentists in Sarasota, and all were either unwilling or unable to help. I finally found Dr. Chasolen who completely changed my life for the better. He assured me he'd do everything he could to make me comfortable again. We worked together for months to correct the improper work and I'm now completely out of pain thanks to his talent and patience. I am forever grateful! I see Sara in his office now for cleanings and she is also wonderful.

I was referred to Dr Chasolen’s office over 14 years ago due to previous dental incompetency that had caused complications that needed Dr Chasolen’s expertise to correct. Dr Chasolen really took on my case, discussed it with a team of other dentist that he consults with and came up with a short term and long term plan. I have had to go through extensive repair work but finally everything is corrected and I have a beautiful smile that also functions properly which is a game changer. His staff has always been so friendly, relatable and professional especially Paula who I have had the privilege to work closely with all these years and has fine tuned my gorgeous restorative caps. The icing on the cake is they play really fun music too, hehe.

Great experience at Dr. Chasolen office today. The office staff and everyone was very informative and helpful. And Dr. Chasolen was very helpful going over the plan for my teeth. My teeth are looking so natural again after my accident. Can’t wait for last visit and final look.

Frequently Asked Questions About Cosmetic & Restorative Dentistry

What is cosmetic dentistry?
Cosmetic dentistry focuses on improving the appearance of your teeth, gums, and smile. Treatments are customized to correct issues like discoloration, chips, uneven spacing, or worn teeth. Each procedure is carefully planned to enhance your smile’s beauty while maintaining comfort, balance, and natural function for long-lasting, realistic results.
What is restorative dentistry?
Restorative dentistry focuses on repairing or replacing damaged or missing teeth to improve function, comfort, and appearance. Treatments may include fillings, crowns, bridges, dentures, root canals, or dental implants - all designed to help you maintain a strong, healthy, and beautiful smile.
How do I know which cosmetic treatments are right for me?
Your dentist will begin with a comprehensive esthetic evaluation and analysis. Together, you’ll discuss your goals and design a personalized plan. Whether you want subtle improvements or a complete transformation, your treatment will be tailored to achieve a natural, confident look that complements your facial features.
Will my cosmetic dentistry look natural?
Absolutely! Every cosmetic treatment is designed with your facial structure, tooth color, and proportions in mind. Advanced digital planning allows precise customization, ensuring that your results blend seamlessly with your natural features for a smile that looks authentic, balanced, and completely your own. You benefit from working with a prosthodontist, a specialist in smile restoration.
Are restorative treatments painful?

Local anesthetic is used to keep you comfortable during restorative procedures. Most treatments are gentle and minimally invasive. You may experience mild sensitivity afterward, but it typically fades quickly as your mouth heals and adjusts to the restoration.

What is the difference between restorative and cosmetic dentistry?

Restorative dentistry is dedicated to repairing damaged teeth and replacing missing ones, while cosmetic dentistry aims to enhance the appearance of teeth that are already in good condition. There is a degree of overlap, though, as restorative procedures often lead to a more attractive smile. Certain cosmetic services, like tooth bonding, can also address minor dental damage.
