What to Look for in a Cosmetic Dentist

When considering a cosmetic dental treatment such as tooth whitening or veneers, it’s important to choose the best dentist to perform the procedure. Our team here at the office of Michael S. Spangler, DDS, PA has extensive experience in the field of cosmetic dentistry, and we want to help you get the high-quality care you deserve. In this article, we will go over a few key qualities to look for when choosing a cosmetic dentist in order to get the best results.

What to Look for in a Cosmetic Dentist

•  Credentials- When choosing any dentist, you should always take the time to check out their credentials, such as where they studied, how long they’ve been practicing, and what types of ongoing education courses they have completed since they finished their training. It’s also a good idea to see if they belong to any trade organizations.

•  Referrals- Another thing to pay attention to when choosing a cosmetic dentist is patient referrals. You can ask your acquaintances for recommendations, then check out the dentists they mention to get a better feel for their level of service and care. You can also ask the dentist to provide a list of references for you to contact directly to ask about their experiences.

•  Portfolio- A third thing to look at when choosing a cosmetic dentist is examples of their past work. These days, cosmetic dentists usually put examples of before-and-after photos on their website, but you can also request to see photos in person when visiting the dental office. You are seeking out this dentist in order to improve the appearance of your teeth, so make sure you view examples of their work before you make your final decision.
