Despite popular belief, there is no official dental specialty for cosmetic dentistry. However, many general dentists pursue advanced training and courses to master the art of cosmetic dentistry. If you’re considering enhancing your smile, starting with a consultation is the best approach.

What to Expect During Your Cosmetic Consultation

Just as you wouldn’t paint a house before ensuring its structure is sound, you wouldn’t want to focus on the aesthetics of your smile without first ensuring it’s healthy and functional. During your cosmetic consultation, our team at Family 1st Dental in Sac City will evaluate your dental health. This might reveal the need for restorative or orthodontic care before proceeding with cosmetic treatments. While this can be disappointing, having a strong and healthy smile is ultimately more important than its appearance.

During your consultation, you’ll have the opportunity to share your vision for your smile. With modern technology and procedures, our team can address and solve a variety of concerns, including:

• Diastema (gaps between teeth)
• Whitening a dull smile
• Repairing chipped or cracked teeth
• Building up worn teeth
• Reshaping teeth
• Crown lengthening (to correct a “gummy” smile)
• Aligning misaligned or crooked teeth

Recommended Services

The services recommended during your consultation may include one or more of the following:

• Porcelain Veneers: Thin shells placed over the front of your teeth to improve appearance.
• Teeth Whitening: Professional treatments to brighten your smile.
• Inlays and Onlays: Custom-made restorations for damaged or decayed teeth.
• Dental Implants: Permanent replacements for missing teeth.
• Dentures: Removable replacements for missing teeth.
• Tooth-Colored Fillings: Natural-looking fillings for cavities.
• Orthodontics: Treatments to straighten and align teeth.

During your appointment, our team will provide a detailed plan to achieve your goals. This plan will include the necessary appointments, potential financing options, and a timeline. Often, a few small changes can significantly improve the appearance of your smile. In some cases, just 1-2 visits can result in a confident new smile.
