Cosmetic Dentistry

The Numbers
Cosmetic dentistry is everywhere – it's on the faces of many people you meet, though you may not know it. Your closest friends may have their teeth bleached or bonded. According to the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry, there were 2.69 million cosmetic dental patients in 2006. If you're considering cosmetic dental enhancements, you aren't alone!

The Dentists
Cosmetic dentistry is not a specialty recognized by the American Dental Association, so any general dentist can claim to be a cosmetic dentist. To choose a good cosmetic dentist, review the doctor's before-and-after photos of actual cases, ask about his or her postgraduate education in cosmetic dentistry, and make sure that you feel confident and comfortable in the office.

The Results
Another AACD study tells us that people with an attractive smile appear more intelligent, successful, friendly, interesting, and kind. They also appeal more to the opposite sex. Cosmetic dentists often cite the transformation in a patient's self-image as the best thing about their job. With a brighter, straighter, shapelier smile, you may find the confidence to pursue relationships, career opportunities, and social engagements that you never thought possible.
