How To Determine If Your Cosmetic Dentist is Right For You
The best cosmetic dentist for you is the one that you feel
that you have confidence in and whose taste you can trust.
If a cosmetic dentist does not seem to be listening to you
or answering your questions then that may be your first
clue that he or she is not right for you. Remember that you
are paying this dentist a lot of money to perform a service
for you so there is no reason for you to be subjected to
any type of sales pitch, personal criticism or non-
conclusive answers to your questions (especially about the
cost of the procedure!) As in any situation, trust your
what your gut is telling you and don't fall into a state of
wishful thinking!
Apart from having the innate sense that you can trust the
cosmetic dentist, he or she should also be able to
thoroughly answer the following questions in a clear,
concise and thorough manner. Keep in mind that as many
cosmetic dentists are very wealthy, they will often book a
consultation with a man or woman that has been trained as a
professional to answer your questions.
§What cosmetic dentistry do you recommend to make my
smile more attractive and why?
§How much can I expect to pay for this procedure (s)?
§Do you offer financing or must it all be paid upfront?
§What is the rate of interest on your financing plan?
§Do you invest in your continuing education and if so
what seminars or courses have you recently attended?
§How many times have you performed this dental procedure
you are recommending for me?
§What complications can I expect from the operation?
§What is the worst case scenario that any of your
patients have endured as
a result of this procedure?
§In your practice, what is the most common complication
of this aesthetic procedure?
§Does the procedure require an anesthesia? If so do you
use a certified anesthesiologist or a nurse anesthetist
(CRNA)?
§What type of anesthetic or anesthesia is required for
the procedure - twilight or full anesthesia?
§What medications must I stop taking prior to surgery?
§How long is the average recovery time for this procedure?
§How will any bruising, bleeding, swelling or
inflammation be treated?
§Will I have to take antibiotics after or before the
procedures?
§Will there be pain afterwards?
§What type of painkillers or medications will I be
prescribed for pain?
§Are any of these medications dangerous or addictive?
§What are the side effects of these medications?
§How soon after this procedure can I resume eating?
§If the work fails in anyway will you redo the work at no
extra expense? If not what is the expense?
§Are postoperative visits free or is there a charge for
them?
It is also a good idea to bring someone else along with
you on your consult so that they can also help you assess
the situation and keep you grounded in reality. Remember
that like many artists, cosmetic dentists are in the
business of making your dreams a reality, but make sure you
can afford this transformation before you proceed!
