Cosmetic Dentistry · Tustin, CA
Cosmetic dentistry in Tustin with Dr. Marta Rudat. Veneers, whitening,
and full smile design, planned around your face and the way you look.
Cosmetic dentistry improves how your teeth look, their color, shape, alignment, and proportion through treatments like porcelain veneers, professional whitening, bonding, and smile makeovers.
At Dr. Marta Rudat’s practice in Tustin, CA, each option is planned around your face and your goals, so the result looks natural rather than obvious.
What It Can Change
Most people who land here have one or two things they have been bothered by for years.
Cosmetic dentistry addresses all of it: color, shape, alignment, proportion, and symmetry, either one treatment at a time or as a coordinated plan. The right approach depends entirely on what you want to change and how your teeth are built underneath. That's what the consultation is for.
Treatments
Thin, custom shells that reshape color, length, and proportion across the front teeth. The go-to when you want a noticeable, lasting change to several teeth at once.
A coordinated plan that combines the right treatments, in the right order, for a full-smile result. Best when more than one thing needs to change and the changes need to work together.
Professional whitening that reaches stains at-home kits can't, for a brighter smile that holds. Often the simplest first step, and sometimes all you need.

Why Dr. Marta
Dr. Marta Rudat has practiced in Tustin, CA, for more than 15 years, long enough to see what separates cosmetic work that lasts from work that looks good for a year.
She is a member of the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry and is currently completing the AACD Accreditation process, a standard fewer than 500 dentists worldwide have ever reached.
What patients mention most is that she doesn't rush. She listens first, examines your bite and gum health before anything cosmetic, and will happily tell you that something simpler will serve you just as well, or that you're not quite ready for what you're asking about. That kind of honesty is rarer than it should be.
She's also your dentist for the long haul. The same person who designs your smile handles your cleanings and checkups and catches anything early. That continuity is part of what keeps cosmetic results looking right for years.
In their words
More than 200 patients have left five-star reviews across Dr. Marta's 15+ years in Tustin.
I'd been thinking about veneers for ten years. Dr. Marta is the only dentist who actually listened to what I wanted my smile to look like - and then delivered it. People keep asking what I changed.
I came in for Invisalign and stayed for the experience. It's the only dental office I've ever walked into that feels like a private studio. Dr. Marta is meticulous.
Full smile makeover after years of avoidance. She handled my case with so much care. I cried looking in the mirror - happy crying. It looks like me, just younger.
The Visit
A smile consultation is a relaxed first visit where you talk through what you'd change, Dr. Marta examines your teeth, bite, and gums, and you leave with a clear picture of your options. No treatment is recommended unless it's genuinely right for you, and nothing is decided in a rush.
Here's how the visit usually goes.
Dr. Marta wants to hear what's been bothering you, whether it's color, a chip, spacing, worn edges, or old work that no longer matches. She asks what you've tried before and what you're hoping for. Most cosmetic consultations skip this part. It's the part that decides whether your result fits the life you live.
Healthy comes before beautiful. Dr. Marta checks your bite, your gums, and any existing dental work because cosmetic treatment placed on an unstable foundation won't hold the way it should. This is also where she catches things you might not know about, so the plan is built on what's really going on.
Dr. Marta takes photographs and any imaging your case needs. Seeing your smile the way others see it, up close and from the side, makes the conversation concrete instead of guesswork, and it gives her what she needs to plan precisely.
We walk you through your options and show you results from patients whose starting point was close to yours, so you have a real reference for what's possible. For bigger cases, we may prepare a model of the proposed changes before anything permanent happens.
Sometimes that's whitening, and you're done. Sometimes it's veneers, and sometimes it's straightening a few teeth first for a better, longer-lasting result. Dr. Marta recommends the smallest change that gets you the smile you want, with a clear, itemized plan and financing options laid out before you commit to anything.

The answer depends on what you want to change. Whitening sits in a very different place than a few veneers, and both are different again from a full smile makeover. A meaningful number only comes after Dr. Marta sees your teeth and understands your goal.
To give you a rough sense before you come in, here are typical Orange County ranges by treatment:
In-office whitening
Yellowed or surface-stained teeth
KöR whitening
Deep or stubborn discoloration
Composite bonding
Small chips, gaps, minor reshaping
Porcelain veneers
Color, length, and proportion across the front teeth
Invisalign (cosmetic alignment)
Crowding or spacing, often before veneers
Smile makeover
A coordinated plan combining several of the above
**These are general ranges for the area, not quotes. Your number depends on how many teeth are involved, the materials used, and the condition of the teeth underneath. Most cosmetic treatments are considered aesthetic, so they usually aren't covered by dental insurance, though financing can spread the cost out.

What’s the difference between cosmetic and restorative dentistry?
Cosmetic dentistry focuses on how your teeth look, while restorative dentistry focuses on repairing function and health. In practice, they overlap. A veneer can improve a worn front tooth’s appearance, and a crown that protects a cracked tooth should still look natural. Dr. Marta plans both together when a case calls for it.
Will my Cosmetic work look natural?
That’s the goal, not “dramatic.” Dr. Marta designs to your face, your age, and the way your features move when you talk and laugh. Patients often say friends notice something looks better without being able to say what changed.
How do I know which treatment I need?
You don’t have to know before you come in. Some patients need only whitening; others are better served by veneers or a coordinated makeover. Your consultation sorts it out, and Dr. Marta will recommend the smallest change that gets you the result you want.
Does Dr. Marta offer financing for cosmetic treatment?
Yes. Financing and payment options are available, and the team walks you through them alongside your itemized plan so the investment is clear before you decide.
