Dr. Angela R. Cameron is pleased that you took
the initiative to visit this page. Choosing the correct cosmetic
dentist to help you achieve a gorgeous new smile is very important!
Today, any general dentist can claim to be a cosmetic dentist even
if they only offer simple whitening! We have included a few tips
that may help you in your educative and personal decision.
1.) Is the cosmetic
dentist a member of the Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry?
You want to be assured that the dentist you choose is a member of
this Academy because it is a reflection of the dentist’s commitment
to this specialized field.
2.) Become educated and take your time.
Cosmetic dentistry can literally change your life. A white and sophisticated
smile can literally make you look years younger, you’ll find
yourself smiling more and that brings it’s own intangible
rewards - you’ll feel and look younger! Does your dentist
provide a consultation to explain the various techniques and procedures?
Study your dentist’s website. Do they offer full explanations
of cosmetic options?
3.) Continued Cosmetic
Dental Training
In order to perform cosmetic dental procedures at a premier level
a dentist must have a combination of clinical and artistic skill.
This experience is gained through courses in cosmetic dentistry
on a continual basis. New techniques and materials are only beneficial
to a cosmetic smile design if your dentist has the knowledge and
experience necessary.
4.) A Caring and Communicative Approach
When considering a cosmetic procedure you should seek a practice
that will honestly assess your needs and communicate them to you.
You should feel that your emotional as well as aesthetic needs are
being met through the beginning to the end. Our staff is supportive
and educative and we welcome you to experience the difference at
Sophisticated Smiles.
5.) A Smile Design
Portfolio
It is important to see actual cosmetic cases done by the cosmetic
dentist you are considering. Do they have before and after photos
for you to look at on a website or in their office? You may see
not only how your smile may be improved but also the peace of mind
that comes from selecting a dentist who is experienced.
6.) Does the practice follow strict
and thorough sterilization procedures?
Cosmetic dentistry is the art of aesthetically improving your smile,
but you also want to be confident that the dentist insists on an
exceptionally clean and sterilized environment.
