There are many things that could motivate you to consider seeking the services of a cosmetic-dentist. It could be something to do with the color of your teeth, the alignment of your teeth or even the number of your teeth (like where you have some conspicuous teeth missing, hence messing up with your look). A visit to the cosmetic tattoo Perth dentist could be something you have always wanted to do, but which, due to lack of resources – either time resources or financial resources – you could have kept on postponing, until now that you can make it. Now as you make final arrangements for your visit to the cosmetic-dentist, you would find yourself a little bit anxious as to what you are to expect once there, which is the focus of this discussion.
Now there are several things that you can expect when visiting a cosmetic-dentist. Their exact nature will depend to a large extent on the type of cosmetic dentistry procedure you are looking at, which is in turn dependent on the nature of problem at hand.
Usually, a visit to the cosmetic-dentist will be by appointment. These are usually busy professionals, seeing that there are only so many of them, dealing with the cosmetic dentistry problems of huge numbers of people. You therefore need to book for an appointment as soon as you make up your mind to seek the services of a cosmetic dentist. Finding a cosmetic-dentist near you should, in itself, not be too large of a problem. The telephone directory is one of the resources at your disposal, where you can find cosmetic-dentist listings. A chat with your usual dentist could also yield a referral to a cosmetic dentist she knows of. Depending on your country of residence, you may also be able to use a web-based dentist locator service to identify a suitable cosmetic dentist.
Once you are in the cosmetic-dentist’s clinic, you can expect the usual probing questions associated with dentists. Remember, when all is said and done, the cosmetic dentist is not a beautician, but a doctor of dentistry. Before making up their mind as to whether to proceed with the cosmetic-dentistry or not (and if yes, what cosmetic dentistry procedure to use), they will be keen on knowing whether you have any health conditions that contra-indicate such procedures.
Most cosmetic-dentistry procedures are not painful, so that you have nothing to fear in that respect. Some can, however, be slightly uncomfortable. Virtually all of them will involve keeping your mouth wide open for extended periods of time. If it a tooth discoloration problem you have, the cosmetic dentist may decide to use a dental bleach on you, and you can expect a bit of enhanced tooth sensitivity pursuant to its usage. Where it is a tooth alignment problem you are looking to resolve, the cosmetic dentist will probably put you on suitable braces, and it will be up to you to wear them consistently, in order to bring about your much desired look. The braces can be a little bit uncomfortable to wear for the first day, but you soon get used to them. Where it is a missing tooth problem we are looking at, the solution may lay in replacing it with an artificial one (most probably preceded by the installation of a dental implant); or the bonding or veneering of the space where the tooth is supposed to be present.
Before letting you go, the cosmetic dentist will most probably do a brief dental check up on you, to see whether there might be any major undetected problems in your mouth.
The cosmetic dentist is also likely to give you follow-up appointments, and it is in your best interests to keep up with them, to ensure that keep them, to get the best possible care.
What is for sure is that a visit to the cosmetic dentist is nothing to be particularly anxious about; as most procedures that take place there are not particularly painful or otherwise uncomfortable.
