Tips For Finding a Cosmetic Dentist

 

Ask your friends and relatives for referrals

If you have relatives and/or friends that live in the area, ask them if they have any recommendations. Chances are they’ve received some sort of cosmetic dental procedure in their lifetime, such as dental implants, veneers or similar. Even though they may not have received the same exact treatment you seek, they could still answer questions about the doctor, staff or technology. They can also give you some valuable insights into what to expect at their dentist and how they were treated. If you don’t have any relatives in the area, or recently moved to the area, ask your co-workers if they have any recommendations. Receiving a recommendation from a trusted source is always better than going in blind.

Research the dentists website & experience

If a business cares about their image, then their website should be a pretty good representation of their business. Take a look at the prospective dentist’s website and experience. Does the business look reputable based on their website? Do the images on the website give you a good impression? Does it list how long they’ve been in business? You can also look for their business on Healthgrades.com to see if they’ve been involved in a malpractice suit.

Look at their photos

Doctors should have photos of themselves, their staff and their office either on their website or on third party sites such as Google Maps. In order to view photos on Google Maps, you can Google the business and click “maps” within Google. Taking this action will also give you some reviews that previous patients have posted to Google. Take a look at these photos and reviews to see if their business looks reputable.

See what technology they offer

Again, taking a look at a doctor’s website should be able to tell you what kind of technology they use within their practice. Technologies such laser dentistry and 3D x-rays, amongst others, can help reduce both the invasiveness of a procedure, as well as healing times. Picking a dentist that is up-to-date with good technology can be very helpful.

Check out feedback from previous patients

Checking feedback from other patients involves reading reviews of a practice from third party websites. We all know that reviews on third party websites can be extremely tough to fake. Reviews and ratings can be looked at as votes of confidence for a dentist when positive. They can also be red flags for a practice when negative.
