Find out where you are on the way to your smile.
Not everyone who wants a new smile is ready to sit down with a dentist this month. Some people are planning around a wedding or a season. Some are still deciding whether porcelain veneers are right for them at all. This short assessment tells you what your next step should be, and it gives you the reading that matters most for where you are.
There are no right or wrong answers, and nothing here is a clinical evaluation. That happens in a consultation with Dr. Dave.
Question 1 of 6
Or call (770) 955-0550. It is the same people, and it is quicker.
, your next step is a conversation with Dr. Dave.
You have a date in mind and you know what you want to change. The most useful thing you can do now is have a consultation, because every smile makeover at Frenchy Smiles begins there. Dr. Dave examines your smile, listens to what you want, and develops treatment recommendations based on your individual needs. Nothing is designed before that conversation, and there are no veneers sitting on a shelf waiting to be selected.
Consultations are available in person in Atlanta and by video. A video consultation typically takes 20 to 30 minutes. Because you will be traveling, a video consultation is often the right first step, and our team can help you plan your visit around treatment.
, you have time to plan this well.
You are working toward a moment later this year, which means you can approach your smile makeover the way it deserves to be approached: with the process understood, the questions answered, and the financing arranged before you sit down with Dr. Dave. Patients who prepare this way tend to make calmer decisions in the consultation, because nothing about the process is a surprise.
The months ahead are best used in three ways. Read the Smile Design Guide below, which explains how a smile is planned and what the visits look like. Review the financing options before your appointment; our team can provide that information in advance so you feel financially prepared. And when your date is closer, request a consultation, because the design and treatment phases take time and a consultation is where that clock starts.
You told us . We will check in once as it approaches, and only once.
, take your time. Here is what to know first.
You are still deciding whether a smile makeover is right for you, and that is exactly the right place to start. Most people who are exploring have the same two questions. Will my smile look fake? And will I be pushed into a decision before I am ready?
Will my smile look fake?
No. There are no veneers sitting on a shelf waiting to be selected. Each restoration is individually designed for the person receiving it. From the shade to the contouring to the final finish, Dr. Dave handcrafts each smile personally, and it is designed for that patient alone.
Will I be rushed?
No. A consultation is a conversation, not a commitment. Sending a request does not book an appointment or charge you for treatment. When you are ready, a patient concierge will reach out to answer your questions and discuss your next steps, on your own timeline.
When you are ready, you can request a private consultation here.
This assessment is not a clinical evaluation. Your treatment recommendations come from your consultation with Dr. Dave.
How a smile is planned.
Every treatment plan is individual. The Frenchy Smiles process may include consultation and assessment, design and treatment planning, treatment and provisional care when appropriate, final placement, and individualized aftercare. Examinations, procedures, materials, visits, and timing vary by patient.
It begins with a consultation.
Every new patient receives a consultation with our doctor. We may take necessary X-rays and complete a comprehensive evaluation so we can develop treatment recommendations based on your individual dental needs.
Nothing is chosen from a shelf.
There are no veneers sitting on a shelf waiting to be selected. Each restoration is individually designed for the person receiving it. From the shade to the contouring to the final finish, Dr. Dave handcrafts each smile personally, and it is designed for that patient alone.
Financing can be arranged before you visit.
We encourage patients who are considering treatment to review available financing options before their appointment. Our team can provide information about available monthly payment options so you can understand your choices and feel financially prepared to move forward with your recommended smile treatment. See the financing options.
If you are nervous, say so.
We offer oral sedation for patients who experience dental anxiety or nervousness. Our goal is to make your visit as comfortable and stress-free as possible. If you are interested in sedation, please let our front office team know when scheduling your appointment so we can discuss the appropriate options.
