How do I know if my dentist is good?

How do I know if my dentist is good?

Our relationship with our dentist is a life relationship, so it is good when we find someone who suits us and we consider that it corresponds to what we ask to never change!

 

But how do we know if our dentist is good or not? Or by what criteria do we evaluate it? Below are some helpful suggestions to help with the evaluation.

 

The first impression counts.

 

From the dentist's office, the doctor's office to the time you will have to wait for your appointment, everything plays its role! Is the gentleman at the front desk polite when you call to make an appointment? Certainly, the staff of a dentist says a lot about his practice.

 

How do you feel when you enter his office? The environment should be designed so that it exudes a sense of relaxation and tranquility, a beautiful decoration, a neat and clean space would help a lot in this. It also says a lot about the cleanliness and hygiene rules that are observed in the dental office.


The vast majority of people are afraid of dentists, a place reminiscent of a doctor's office in the strict and cold sense would not help their psychology at all. The waiting. Do you have to wait for your scheduled appointment?

 

 A short wait is acceptable, but waiting a long time is not the best as it shows a lack of organisation. Of course, we do not rule out the possibility of an emergency, or a problem that was not anticipated at the time.


Hygiene and sterilisation of dental tools.

 

 As mentioned above, it is very important, if not the most important thing, if the rules of hygiene and sterilisation are observed. You can ask if you want and find out how they clean their dental equipment. As well as the space they have for sterilisation.

 

"Pain level"

 

A sign of a good dentist is whether he is able to "help" the patient in a way that will make him suffer as little as possible. A good dentist and scientist has invested in new technologies and tools that make treatment painless. In this way he respects and cares for his patient.

 
Extreme and unnecessary procedures.

 

When we face a dental problem, the dentist we have consulted, should exhaust all alternatives that may be less expensive and not proceed with unnecessary surgeries and treatments that may be avoided. That is, to operate with the patient in mind and not the money.


Contact

 

After providing his services, is there communication between the doctor and the patient? Is it possible for you or him to call you to ask about the course of treatment or to give you any advice? The same thing happens after you leave the doctor's office. Are you still having trouble, or will you need to visit again next week? The above can help you find the right one for you!
