Top 11 Factors to Consider When Picking a Cosmetic Dentist

  • VIBE Team
  • June 10, 2021
  • 4 minute read
picking a cosmetic dentist

Did you know that many celebrities love to transform their smile with veneers? Boost your confidence and improve your dental health. If you would like to get cosmetic dentistry done but need a dentist, we can help.

In this guide, we’ll go over factors to consider when picking a cosmetic dentist.

Want to learn more? Keep reading.

1. Find an Experienced Dentist

Before you pick a dentist, look for someone with a lot of experience. Does the dentist offer the services you seek?

Look for a cosmetic dentist who has offered these services for a long time. If the cosmetic surgeon has been in the business for a short period, they might not be the best choice.

An experienced cosmetic dentist will have experience with different procedures. You should also ask the dentist about how successful the process was.

2. What’s Your Budget?

You want to have an affordable option when getting cosmetic dentistry done. Before you get these services, make sure you learn how much the dentist charges.

ADVERTISEMENT

A decent dentist will offer services at a reasonable price. Don’t choose a dentist who offers a low price. Make sure you get quality services done.

3. Read Customer Feedback

You should read different testimonials and feedback. You will get a chance to learn about what patients liked and disliked.

Take time to read the online reviews. This way, you can figure out if the dentist is a good choice.

You’ll also learn about the overall experience of the patient. Read the three-star reviews. This way, you can get a more realistic view of what people liked and disliked.

4. Ask About Dental Training

Ask the dentist about their dental training. Did the dentist get extensive training? Where did they get their dental training done?

ADVERTISEMENT

Trained cosmetic dentists will have taken postgraduate courses. Are you looking for someone who can complete specific work? You might want to fix crooked teeth or repair a chipped tooth.

You should ask about the potential treatment options. Are you looking for dental implants or teeth whitening? You might need to get a tooth reshaped or contoured, or you might want tooth-colored fillings.

Make sure you ask the dentist to share their different treatment options. You should also ask what they would recommend.

ADVERTISEMENT

5. Ask Your Network

You should talk to your friends and family and ask if they recommend a cosmetic dentist.

Was your friend or relative happy with the service? Did the dentist make them feel comfortable?

6. Visit the Office

Don’t commit to working with a dentist before you meet them. Consider going on a trial visit to the dentists that you like.

ADVERTISEMENT

Build a rapport with the dentist and see how you feel. Do you feel comfortable with that dentist?

You should also about the different equipment the dentist will use. Cosmetic dentistry will solve various problems compared to regular dental work.

7. Find a Dentist Who Listens

Get a dentist who will make you feel comfortable. You want a professional who will listen to you. Share what you expect will happen after the cosmetic procedure.

ADVERTISEMENT

A reputable dentist will be honest about what they expect will happen.
The dentist should try and understand you and create treatments to suit your interests.

You should ask the dentist to give you information on potential outcomes. Find out if there are potential issues that could arise during the procedure.

A lot of people dread heading to the dentist. Look for someone who will make you feel comfortable. Otherwise, you won’t have a positive experience.

ADVERTISEMENT

You should tell the dentist what you’d like from the treatment. Your dentist should be able to explain what they can do for you.

8. Ask About Payment Options

Insurance policies don’t always cover cosmetic smile enhancements. Look for a dentist that provides different payment options.

A dentist should be able to accept payment plans and different credit cards. Cosmetic surgery tends to be expensive.

9. Ask to See Photos

You should ask the cosmetic dentist if you can see before and after pictures.

ADVERTISEMENT

A reputable dentist will show a gallery of these photographs. You will be able to judge whether you think this cosmetic dentist is someone you’d like to choose.

10. Where Is the Dentist Located?

Find a cosmetic dentist near where you live or work. When you choose a dentist who’s nearby, you’ll have an easier time going to appointments.

You should also ask about their hours. When is the dentist’s office open? Will the hours work for your schedule?

ADVERTISEMENT

11. Look Into the Credentials

You should make sure you check the credentials of the dentist. Even if the dentist can provide nice photos, you want to make sure they’re qualified.

Read online about the dentist. You could find out what professional organization they joined. Don’t choose just any cosmetic dentist, as you want to make sure a professional completes your treatment. 

You can search dentists online and eliminate those with red flags from your list.

Now You Know More About Picking a Cosmetic Dentist

We hope you found this guide on cosmetic dentistry helpful. Look for a reputable and experienced cosmetic dentist.

The dentist shouldn’t be too far from where you live or work. Picking a cosmetic dentist doesn’t have to be a challenge. Search for a dentist with decent reviews and experience in the business.
