But with all the new names in the cosmetic dentistry field, it will be hard for some to choose a good cosmetic dentist. This is especially true if you do not travel in the entertainment circles or even in the inner society circles. When it s all up to you to find your cosmetic dentist, what will you do? Color is the top consideration when evaluating procedures and materials including porcelain veneers, crowns, bridges, implants and composite bonding. Your cosmetic dentist recommends the right shades in tandem with your facial skin tones and hair shadings. Shapes, spaces, alignments Crooked teeth, overlapping teeth, gaps in-between teeth and other imperfections are carefully evaluated for corrective procedures. Take-home whitening kits from drugstores can be had for $100 up to $400. Dental Veneers Dental veneers are expensive solutions for worn tooth enamels, uneven tooth alignment, abnormal spacing, chips and cracks. However, people who had undergone dental veneer procedures are happy and satisfied. Costs of dental veneers vary sharply depending on the fees of the cosmetic dentist, the skills (technical and artistic) on the ceramist who makes the veneers, and the place where you want your procedure. Salespeople Their job is to sell products and part of the package of selling is to have a pleasing personality, someone who is fun to be with and yes, great to look at. Call it shallow but don t you want to talk to people who are pleasing to the eye? Do you not always buy from people who are more attractive? The composite resin used in the cosmetic bonding process is very flexible. It expands and contracts with the natural tooth, thereby preventing cracks and tooth loss. Costs Cosmetic dentistry financing has always been a primary concern with many patients. For tooth bonding, the cost varies according to the number of teeth repaired. These also include a variety of whitening toothpastes and paint-on whitening products and whitening strips. Side effects However, there are a number of whitening materials that have some side effects. The gel in many whitening methods makes the teeth sensitive to hot and cold foods, drinks and air, although this is all temporary.
