Do I need to see my regular dentist before getting cosmetic dentistry?

Your regular dentist can take care of all the problems you mention, unless you also want braces. Cavities and chips are routine dental matters, braces require an orthodontist. They usually prefer you to have routine dental work done by your regular dentist first. And although some of them will do the other routine work, they tend to charge more for the priveledge. So just start with your regular dentist and go from there.

i'd recommend u see ur regular dentist first.u will definitely need a round of cleaning before a cosmetic job since ur gums might be inflammed n will bleed during cosmetic treatment hampering the colour to match properly.if u wanna prioritize ur cosmetic job, thn get tht done after the cleaning n go back to ur regular dentist fer the cavities.ur cosmetic dentist might be expensive fer the usual routine dental work.i wud advise u to cut down on the citrus fruits.they 'dissolve' ur teeth n excess ain't tht good fer ur gastro intestinal system either.

Start with your regular dentist. Tell him or her what you need/want done. I'd say the cavities are pretty important, and fixing that chipped tooth is important too. They'll also want to give you a teeth cleaning too. But, your general dentist can handle all that stuff. If your teeth are really crooked and you want them straightened, then he/she will refer you to an orthodontist.
