Questions to Ask Your Cosmetic Dentist

In the process of choosing your cosmetic dentist, there are some important questions you should make sure and ask any prospective dentist.

1. How long have you been practicing?
2. How long have you been practicing in this community?
3. Do you perform general dentistry as well as cosmetic dentistry procedures?
4. Are there any procedures you feel you perform especially well?
5. Do you perform dental procedures on children?
6. Do you offer sedation dentistry?
7. Do you own your practice, or do you just work here?
8. What is your commitment to continuing education? Have you participated in advanced training institutes?
9. Are you a member of your local dental organization as well as the ADA?
10. Do you have Before and After photos I can look at?
11. May I read your patient testimonials?
12. Have you ever been censured by the ADA, another dental organization, or the state certification board?
13. What financing options do you offer?

In every case, listen to your prospective dentist's answers. In addition to the actual answers, you are listening for sincerity of tone and commitment to you. A dentist that cares about his or her patients understands your concern and is happy to answer your questions.
