Earning through cosmetic dentistry

Q: I'm a dentist and I want to work and gain money through halaal means so that Allah is pleased with me. So I'm interested in the cosmetic dentistry field in which we make smiles more pleasing with crowns, veneers or filling techniques. Kindly guide be about the shariah rulings in this matter as I will take the next step accordingly.

A: This occupation is halaal on condition that one does not involve himself in anything that is impermissible. If you are unclear regarding any aspect, then explain to us the thing that you are unclear about.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
