New Smile Consultation Checklist 12 points to cover at your smile consult — from whitening to veneers without the upsell.
Your goal defined Brighten, straighten, restore, or replace — stated in your words. Full exam done Crowns, gums, bite, and X-rays evaluated before any cosmetic plan. Whitening options covered In-office vs take-home — and why one may fit you better. Veneer candidacy explained Thin vs no-prep veneers and what your enamel allows. Shade & preview shown Digital smile preview or mock-up before commitment. Tooth-prep trade-offs How much enamel is removed and what that means long-term. Bite & alignment checked Orthodontic need identified — veneers over a bad bite fail. Timeline given Whitening to final restoration — weeks, not months, or months, honestly. Longevity & care plan What the work needs to survive (night guard, hygiene schedule). Warranty stated What the practice warrants and for how long. Total cost itemized Exam, imaging, lab, and procedure fees — itemized. Financing disclosed Payment options and terms in writing.
