It's the first time I've ever had ZERO complaints. Saying Dr. Iana and her team are incredible is an understatement — she is so caring, so meticulous with her work, and makes you feel well taken care of. I'm super happy I found my dentist for life.

I've been to a lot of dentists. This is by far the most skilled. I keep expecting pain or discomfort that never comes. It feels like going to a spa. Plenty of time to talk about my questions and concerns.

I booked a wellness exam, cleaning and whitening, and it honestly felt more like a spa day. Under-eye mask, lip mask, a blanket, a soft neck pillow. For someone with major dental anxiety, that made all the difference.

Glint exudes exactly what a dental office should be — cutting-edge technology, a space and amenities that feel spa-like, and an environment that makes going to the dentist feel as comfy as possible.

One of the most upscale dental offices I've ever seen. Despite the next urgent appointment being a week out, she fit me in the same day, assessed my condition and arranged a referral right away.

I came in with pain and didn't know what it was. Dr. Iana was very gentle and informative with everything. This experience has been like nothing I've seen in a dental office.

Meet the doctor

Founder of Glint. Born and raised in Ukraine, trained at Tufts, and shaped by several years at the Kois Center in Seattle — one of the most rigorous postgraduate programs in dentistry.

She moved to Austin with a vision and zero interest in cold, clinical dentistry. Glint is what came of it: aesthetic excellence and whole-body wellness in one room. She calls it positive dentistry — patients just call it the first time they haven’t dreaded the chair.

Advanced care

World-class smiles,
through innovation.

A boutique studio paired with the technology of a specialty clinic. Every case is scanned, designed, and previewed digitally before a single permanent change is made.

01

iTero Element scanner

A 3D digital scan of your teeth in minutes — no trays, no impression material, no gagging.

02

Digital smile design

Your proposed result rendered before treatment, so you approve the design rather than trust it.

03

CEREC CAD/CAM milling

Ceramic crowns, veneers and onlays fabricated in studio, often in a single visit.

04

Sirona cone beam CT

Full 3D diagnostics for implant planning and complex reconstruction — certainty instead of estimation.

Questions, answered.

How much does cosmetic dentistry cost in Austin?

+

It depends entirely on the plan. A single professional whitening session starts in the low hundreds; a full smile makeover with veneers runs into the thousands. Glint offers financing and a membership plan, and you'll get a detailed written estimate at your consultation with no hidden fees.

Are porcelain veneers permanent?

+

Not in the sense that they never change — but yes in the sense that the process isn't reversible. Placing a veneer means removing a thin layer of enamel to make room for the porcelain, and modern minimal-prep veneers keep that to a minimum. With good care, they typically last 10 to 20 years. Dr. Elledge will walk you through whether veneers, bonding, or another option fits your case before anything permanent happens.

Can I really get a crown in one visit?

+

Yes. Our CEREC Primescan and Primemill system lets Dr. Elledge scan the tooth, design the restoration on screen, and mill it in ceramic right here in the studio — usually in about the time a traditional crown appointment takes just for the temporary. There's no impression, no temporary crown, and no second visit to have it seated.

Do you accept dental insurance?

+

Yes — we accept most major plans, including Aetna, Cigna, MetLife, Guardian, United Healthcare and Blue Cross Blue Shield. Benefits are checked before you arrive and we file the claim for you, with your portion shown in writing before any treatment begins. If you're uninsured, our membership plans start at $800 a year and cover your wellness exam, cleanings and imaging with no deductibles or annual maximum.

What if I have a dental emergency?

+

Call the studio directly rather than filling out a form. We hold time in the schedule for urgent cases and can often see you the same day — Dr. Elledge has fit patients in on short notice rather than sending them elsewhere. Reach us at (512) 653-4009.
