Will I need extensive treatment?

The short answer

Not necessarily. The plan depends on your starting point and goals; your dentist can discuss conservative options.

What to consider for your own care

Bring examples of what you like, but expect the dentist to assess your own teeth, gums, bite and existing restorations. Ask about conservative options, maintenance and what cannot be promised.

When to speak with a dentist

A painful or damaged tooth should be assessed for health before making a cosmetic plan.

Next step

Ask Dental Works: “Will I need extensive treatment?” Share your symptoms, goals and any deadline so the dentist can explain suitable options and what should happen next at a Sion East consultation.
