Real patient smile transformations
The before-and-after photos below show cosmetic and restorative dentistry completed for real Metropolitan Dental Centre patients.
Some patients wanted to correct one concern, such as a chipped, worn, or discolored tooth. Others chose a more complete smile transformation with treatments such as bonding, veneers, implants, or full-mouth rehabilitation.
Dr. Hulver created each treatment plan around the patient’s goals, dental health, and desired result. See how personalized planning can improve both the appearance and function of a smile.

Our patients keep coming back
“I literally moved 2 hours away and still drive to see them because no one can compare. Dr. Hulver’s attention to detail is unmatched, and her actual care for her patients is so rare in today’s world.”
“After my childhood dentist retired, it took me two decades to find someone this gentle who takes time to truly know her patients. My husband and adult children all see her now too.”
“In the old days, I would’ve had so much anxiety. But everything is so calm here, and they are so gentle that I had zero anxiety and left with a huge smile on my face.”
“Dr. Hulver really takes the time to understand what’s going on. When she replaced a filling, she noticed I always had food getting stuck there — and fixed it without me even asking.”
“Dr. Hulver is so knowledgeable and always striving to learn more and expand her skill set well beyond typical dental care. I’d recommend this practice to anyone in Northern Virginia.”

Questions before your first appointment? We’ve got answers
Are these real patient results?
Yes. Every before-and-after photo in this gallery is from an actual Metropolitan Dental Centre patient, shared with their permission.
How do I know which treatment is right for my smile?
The best way to find out is a consultation with Dr. Hulver. She’ll look at your teeth, talk through your goals, and recommend the treatment, or combination of treatments, most likely to get you there. For veneers and bonding, you’ll see a digital mock-up of the design before anything is finalized.
How long do results last?
It depends on the treatment. Dental implants, with proper care, can last decades. Porcelain veneers typically last 10 to 15 years or longer. Clear aligner results hold as long as you wear your retainers afterward. Dr. Hulver will walk you through what to expect for your specific treatment at your consultation.
Do you accept dental insurance for cosmetic treatment?
Metropolitan Dental Centre is a fee-for-service practice, so your plan is built around your goals, not what a PPO will approve. We’re not in-network with dental insurance, but we file claims on your behalf, and many out-of-network plans reimburse part of cosmetic and restorative work. Financing through CareCredit, Cherry, and Proceed Finance is also available.
