Tooth Size & Shape - There was some fascinating research done years ago that found if you take the shape of your face…it’s the shape of your teeth upside down. So if you have tapered face, you have tapered teeth. If you have a square face, you have square teeth and so on.
Tooth Color - The color of your teeth relates to age, hair color (natural), complexion, race, etc. Also, the look you are wanting to go for. Your dentist/assistant will help you choose the color just right for you. Your dentist can create a healthy, younger, sexy smile… but the key is his ablility to create a natural, cosmetic appearance. If done properly a cosmetic denture can make you appear 10 years younger.
Smile Selection - Your dentist will have photo books to help you select the type of smile you want. We can even create celebrity smiles, if that style is appropriate for you.
Photos - We encourage you to bring with you (on your first visit) any photos you have of you with your own teeth. Although we can “guesstimate” pretty darn close, a photo is always helpful.
Also, bring with you any other sets of dentures you may have. Even “bad” dentures give us valuable information we can use when constructing your new, cosmetic dentures.
