Choosing the Right Dentist for a Smile Makeover

The quality of your smile makeover experience is often determined by the dentist you choose to perform it. Read on to find out how to choose the right dentist. The good news is there are steps you can take to help ensure you choose the dentist that is right for you according to your treatment goals and preferences. This article provides a step-by-step guide to help you choose the right dentist for your smile makeover.

Tips for finding the right dentist for your smile makeover

You can ensure you find the right dentist for your smile makeover by following the tips laid out below. The ultimate goal is to find a dentist and staff that makes you feel comfortable as you begin your journey to an improved smile.

Determine your goals for treatment

The first step in the process is to determine and write down your goals for a smile makeover. Every patient has their own personalized plan that is tailored according to what they hope to accomplish. Common goals for a smile makeover include:

  • Brightening the color of teeth by several shades
  • Fixing damaged teeth (e.g., chipped or cracked teeth)
  • Replacing missing teeth
  • Correcting jaw and teeth misalignments

The patient and the dental staff can discuss treatment goals during the consultation visit.

Consider the treatments they offer

After determining the goals you have for treatment, then it is time to find a dentist that offers services that help accomplish those goals. Some of the treatments that are more commonly included in a smile makeover are:

  • Teeth whitening
  • Dental crowns
  • Dental veneers
  • Dental implants

Of course, there are many additional treatment options that may work well for your needs and preferences. While there are multiple ways to treat specific concerns, finding a dentist that offers your preferred methods of treatment can help.

Check the reviews from previous patients

Reviews do not always tell the whole story, but they are a good place to start when looking for the right dentist. The simplest way to check reviews online is via Google and specific review sites. It may also help to ask friends and family members in your area about dentists that they may have had a good experience with in the past, and then see if any of those dentists offer the treatments you need for your smile makeover.

Schedule a smile makeover consultation

After finding a dentist that can offer smile makeover treatment to meet your specific goals, then schedule a consultation visit. This visit offers an opportunity to get to know the dentist and their staff better and put together a personalized treatment plan that fits your schedule and treatment goals and needs.
