FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT COSMETIC DENTISTRY:
1. What is the difference between a cosmetic dentist and a general dentist?
- Answer: While general dentists provide comprehensive dental care, including preventive, restorative, and some cosmetic treatments, cosmetic dentists specialize in procedures aimed at enhancing the appearance of teeth and smiles. Cosmetic dentists often pursue additional training and certification in aesthetic techniques and technologies.
2. Are cosmetic dental procedures covered by insurance?
- Answer: Cosmetic dental procedures are often not covered by dental insurance as they are considered elective treatments. However, some procedures may be partially covered if they have a functional component or are deemed medically necessary. It’s important to check with your insurance provider to understand your coverage options.
3.What should I expect during a cosmetic dental consultation?
- Answer: During a cosmetic dental consultation, Dr. Lindahl will evaluate your oral health, discuss your aesthetic goals, and review your treatment options. This may include taking photographs, X-rays, and impressions of your teeth. The dentist will explain the procedures, expected outcomes, and costs, helping you make an informed decision.
4. How long do cosmetic dental treatments last, and what is involved in their maintenance?
- Answer: The longevity of cosmetic dental treatments varies based on the type of treatment and individual care. For example, teeth whitening results may last 6-12 months, while veneers and crowns can last 10-20 years or more with proper care. Regular dental check-ups, good oral hygiene practices, and avoiding harmful habits (such as grinding or chewing on hard objects) are crucial for maintaining the results of cosmetic treatments.
