March 29, 2017
No matter if you have anxiety about going to the dentist or if you’re perfectly relaxed in the dentist’s chair, it’s essential you find the right dentist. One who matches your specific needs and can help bring out the best in your oral health. Drs. Crandall, Johnson and Lopez as well as the rest of us at South Hills Dental Arts are here to provide you with a few expert tips on what you can do to find a competent and trustworthy dentist in Pittsburgh, PA.
Overall Reputation
One of the first things you should do is research the dentist‘s local reputation. Besides review services, apps and sites, you can also visit the dental office’s website to see if there are any reviews shared there. Once you’ve narrowed your options, it’s a good idea to actually visit the dental office to see if the environment puts you at ease and makes you feel like you and your oral health are in good hands. While you’re there, be sure to ask whether patients receive comprehensive dental care and if the dentist uses the most cutting-edge dental equipment and technology to take proper care of patients.
Professional Experience and Expertise
Check to see how many years of experience the dentist has and how well experienced the dental staff is, which is information you might be able to find on the dentist’s website. Focus on the dentist’s education and whether she or he has any professional specializations. If you need a specific procedure, ensure you ask how many times the dentist has performed that procedure and the results she or he has had.
