Can you tell me how to choose a cosmetic dentist?

Analyia,

That is a great question.  An expert cosmetic dentist can give you a gorgeous smile. An average cosmetic dentist can give you a disaster of a smile.  It is one  of the areas of dentistry where you really need to only go the absolutely highest qualified.

Ideally, you want to find a cosmetic dentist in your area who is accredited by the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry (AACD). Accreditation is different than being a member.  Any dentist can join the organization. In order to get accredited, a dentist has to pass a stringent examination, demonstrate a thorough knowledge of technical skill, and prove their artistic ability by showing their samples of the work they’ve done on their patients.

Very few dentists reach this level of expertise, but it is well worth it for you to drive to another city for a smile makeover and ensure you get a breathtaking smile.
