Özet

Initial consultation is important for both patient and clinician for a joint evaluation of an esthetic treatment plan. Multiple appointments are necessary to create optimal results and satisfactory outcomes for both patient and clinician; hence, a comprehensive evaluation of the patient before initiation of any therapy is mandatory. Sufficient time should be allotted for initial consultation to gather necessary information and response the specific questions related to the case. Thereafter, a detailed medical history of the patient should be gathered to identify the conditions that could contraindicate, complicate, or alter the treatment procedure. In addition, extraoral, muscle, intraoral, periodontal, radiographic, and occlusion examinations should be performed meticulously, with attention also devoted to esthetic considerations.
