Choosing the Right Dentist for your Porcelain Veneers
If you want to tone up your smile by using porcelain veneers, you need to decide which cosmetic dentist to consult. Here are some factors to consider in making your choice:
- Training and membership in professional societies. Clearly, you want to use the services of a professional who keeps up with current thinking in his industry. Cosmetic dentist Dr. Kevin Sands is a graduate of the University of Southern California School of Dentistry and is affiliated with the American Dental Association and American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry. He also is certified by the prestigious Las Vegas Institute for Advanced Dental Studies.
- Experience. Dr. Sands, a second-generation cosmetic dentist, is skilled in a number of practice areas that include all phases of regular and cosmetic dentistry. While every client is of equal importance to him, several movie stars and other celebrities trust their smiles to his expertise.
- Artistic aptitude. Your cosmetic dentist need not be a Michelangelo or Rembrandt. He must, however, know how to work with the contours of your face and teeth to ensure a visually flattering outcome. After all, you will display the results of his work for a lifetime. Dr. Sands has a Website with a smile gallery that displays “before-and-after” photos. This gallery, and testimonials he has received, allow you to judge for yourself the results of his work.
- Resources. The Website of Dr. Sands also has informative pages about the work that he does, the different procedures available, and what these entail. A commitment to patient education is a good sign of a cosmetic dentist’s devotion to his profession and that he puts patients first.
- Up-front honesty. This is another area where Dr. Sands excels. You are not just a patient in his office, you are the top priority. New patients are offered free introductory consultations, and all patients are assured of attentive discussions to ensure that their concerns are in the spotlight.
- Technology. A cosmetic dentist should be conversant with the latest technology in his field. Dr. Sands is qualified to offer the BriteSmileä tooth whitening system to patients. Only trained professionals are allowed to do this.
- Facilities and staff. Judge for yourself whether you want to be greeted by a clean, welcoming environment and friendly staff with state-of-the-art technology.
Whether or not you are a celebrity in everyday life, you will be in the office of Beverly Hills, California cosmetic dentist Dr. Kevin Sands. If you live in the greater Los Angeles area, we invite you to contact us for a no-charge initial consultation.
