Cosmetic dentistry is in huge demand.
People are living longer, better and healthier lives. People want to stay looking young and what better way than having a big, healthy smile. More people are requesting cosmetic dental procedures than ever before and dentists are taking more training to be able to provide this service to their patients.
A healthy smile is associated with straight, white teeth with healthy gums on a symmetrical face. You may have your own idea of what 'beauty' is. Any 'cosmetic' changes to ones' appearance has very much to do with your own 'taste'-just like the preference you have with your choice in clothes, your car, house design or anything else that makes you 'you'. Some people like their teeth and smile to stand out and others like a more natural look. Others like something about their smile that makes them unique-like a small tip or bend to one or a few teeth. A beautiful smile does not have to be perfectly straight! The bottom line is, it's your decision. There are as many choices to a beautiful smile as there are unique people.
Dr. Heit and her team will show you the possibilities in dentistry to achieve the look you want. If you are not sure what to pick, we can 'try on' different smile designs that are completely reversible so you know what your final result will be before you decide on your treatment plan.
Many times, that smile is desired in an individual that has limited time or finances available, may be fearful of dentistry or wants results quickly. Becoming aware of your individual situation and what is available in dentistry today will help to monitor your expectations and, who knows, you may choose a more conservative treatment plan than you thought! Like any complex procedure, the step by step process will help enhance predictability, minimize 'redos' and give you a result with no surprises.
It is absolutely vital that a thorough, in depth examination is performed prior to any cosmetic dentistry so the individual is fully informed of all their choices along with the risks and benefits relevant to their unique situation.
The three "D's" in dentistry is diagnosis, diagnosis, diagnosis
Many times people are not aware of a problem evident to the dentist in their bite. Even though you may not have pain or see a dark spot on your tooth, you still may have an issue that can affect the prognosis of your treatment. Wouldn't that be nice to know ahead of time?
So we appreciate your patience at Scotia Square Dentistry when we ask you to fill out a comprehensive questionnaire and take 2 hours of your time for an examination. You will find that the time spent up front will pay off later when you fully understand your individual situation and make your decision regarding your dental care.
We will refer you to a specialist any time you want or if Dr. Heit can optimize your treatment with a multidisciplinary approach.
We provide a complementary consultation with any person who wants to find out if we are fit for them.
Please call (780) 429-4968 and book your consultation today.
