\"Woman<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

There was once a time when balanced, bright, and beautiful smiles were reserved for celebrities. That\u2019s no longer the case! Thanks to advancements in technology and the dental field, everyone can have a gorgeous grin they love. If you\u2019re interested in finding out if you\u2019re a candidate for cosmetic dentistry<\/a> (and what the smile makeover process entails) then read on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

The First Step: Conducting an Oral Exam<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In order to find out if you\u2019re a candidate for cosmetic dentistry, your dental team needs to first conduct an oral exam. After all, putting veneers over decayed teeth or addressing dental discoloration when an infection is present will not deliver the results you desire. Not only that, but it can negatively impact the condition of your teeth and gums even further. The good news is that \u2013 even if a serious dental problem is detected during the exam \u2013 the appropriate restorative care can be added to your treatment plan, ensuring your dream smile isn\u2019t out of reach for long.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Second Step: Learning About Your Smile Goals<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

After the initial exam, your dentist will need to learn all about your smile goals. That way, they can learn both what imperfections you\u2019d like to address and what you want the final results to look like. Once they have this information (as well as the results from the initial exam), they can determine if you\u2019re a candidate for cosmetic dentistry and begin reviewing your treatment options.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Third Step: Reviewing Your Treatment Options<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The third step (and perhaps the most exciting one!) is reviewing your treatment options. After all, cosmetic dental bonding, teeth whitening, and veneers can all whiten your teeth. The results you desire, the source of the discoloration, and whether or not you want to address other imperfections will determine which one of these smile-enhancing solutions are ideal for you. Rest assured, your cosmetic dentist will share their recommendations and answer any questions you have along the way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
