What should I expect during a cosmetic dentistry consultation?

Cosmetic dental consultations share similarities with their counterparts but have some key differences. Appointments last approximately 1 hour.

The consultation will begin with evaluating your overall oral health. At Renew Dental, your dentist will ensure your teeth and gums are healthy — they provide the foundation for a long lasting, effective cosmetic solution for your smile. Additionally, your dentist will look for signs of gum disease, tooth decay and other concerns. Such issues need to be diagnosed and treated before cosmetic procedures to ensure your long-term oral health is maintained.

The process includes completing x-rays of your teeth. It will allow the dentist to better visualize any areas of concern in order to evaluate the right treatment for your individual needs. 

Communication is a vital part of any consultation. Discussing your concerns with the Renew Dental team allows us to help create the perfect solution. Some dentists use computer images or 3D models of the mouth to show what said changes will look like.
