GRAND DENTAL STUDIO ANSWERS QUESTIONS FOR BRIDES TO BE ABOUT COSMETIC DENTISTRY

Cosmetic dentistry is in magazines, on the news, and on prime time television in programs like Extreme Makeovers. I am not a Hollywood starlet but I want to look like one for my wedding. What can I do?

Being healthy, happy and feeling confident in your appearance are the primary benefits for anyone seeking dental care. On your wedding day, you want everything to be perfect, especially your smile. Seeking out a good dentist is something to consider several months before your wedding date.

Most patients visit a dental office for routine care known as preventive dentistry. Whether you are interested in just brightening up or a total smile makeover, cosmetic options like teeth whitening, porcelain crowns or veneers are options for you to consider.

Even though many over the counter options are heavily advertised, dental whitening is most effective using dentist prescribed whitening gels. In-office power whitening procedures that have been featured on many television shows have become one of the fastest growing areas of cosmetic dentistry. Also, very popular with brides and grooms are total smile makeovers with porcelain veneers or crowns. The results can be very dramatic and these procedures are often featured on television shows like Extreme Makeovers.

Any of these procedures will require some advance planning before the big day. For example, whitening can be done the month of your wedding. Veneers take approximately three to four weeks to complete so you might want to allow two months before your wedding date. Discuss these options with a good cosmetic dentist to find out what is best for you. More information visit the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry’s website at www.aacd.com.
