Selecting A Dentist

Choosing a family dentist is much the same as choosing your family doctor.

In fact, one tip would be to ask your doctor who he or she chooses to visit for their dental needs.

That’s a pretty good endorsement!

If that is not an option, then common sense should prevail.

Do your due diligence.

Try walking through the yellow pages if you’d like, but a bit more in depth analysis might be prudent.

Check with your state licensing agency to determine if a dentist you are considering is licensed to practice in your state.

Contact the office of your state attorney general to determine if there has been any malpractice claims filed against a particular individual.

Check with your Better Business Bureau to determine if there have been any complaints filed for which the dentist has failed to respond.

Talk to your friends and neighbors to obtain personal referrals or recommendations.

If you have dental insurance your plan may require you to use their preferred providers.

If that is the case, work from that list following the recommendations listed above.

It’s your family. It’s your money. It’s your health.
