Let’s face it: finding the right dentist can be tough. Having dental work done is stressful enough without the added uncertainty of switching dentists every few years or needing a second opinion because you don’t trust the first one. Not to mention that every dentist is unique – if you go to 10 different offices, you’ll have 10 different experiences!
So just what should you be looking for and how can you find the right dentist in Naples for the whole family? Keep reading to learn about the criteria a quality office will have, as well as the feedback we get from our patients about why they love our practice.
What Should You Look For In a Dentist?
- Training and experience – If your dentist has pursued continuing education above and beyond the requirements, it’s a sign that they’re committed to constant improvement.
- Technology – Dentistry has come a long way in the last few decades! Be sure you’re getting the benefit of the great changes that have been made. Digital x-rays, intraoral cameras and advanced tools for oral cancer screening are all examples of what you should look for.
- Friendly staff – Of course, you won’t only be working with the dentist themselves. Is the front office staff friendly? How will billing be handled? And is there an experienced, gentle hygienist on board?
- Emergency care – If you have an emergency outside of regular office hours, can you get in touch with them?
- Cleanliness – This starts when you walk in the door – are the waiting area and bathrooms clean? Does the staff wash or disinfect their hands before seeing you? If so, these are all good signs that cleanliness is a priority.
- Professional membership – Involvement with professional memberships is an indicator that your dentist stays abreast of new techniques and practices.
- Awards and Reviews – If your dentist has won awards and received positive reviews from the community, they have a proven track record of success!
