Stuck Trying to Find a Good Family Dentist?

By Arthur Kezian

When you start on your dentist search, you should be looking for a partner.  After all, the two of you will be working together to ensure your oral health, so you need someone that you feel comfortable teaming up with!

Your friends and relatives may have some recommendations for you, but you don’t have to take their word for it.  In the age of the Internet, it’s easy to find comprehensive dentist Hollywood reviews – along with all of the other information you need to find a dentist who suits your needs.

As you try to find a dentist, don’t be afraid to ask questions, and don’t be afraid to look at several different choices.  Remember, it’s your oral health.  If you don’t take it seriously, you could wind up with some pain down the road!

So, when it comes to a good family dentist, what should you be looking for?

The 4 C’s:

1.      Convenience

You and your family need a dentist who is close by.  With people working long hours and sitting in traffic to get virtually everywhere, you need a dentist’s office that is easy to get to.  Otherwise, you’ll wind up stuck in traffic when you need his help!

2.      Credentials

You can’t trust something as important as your oral health to just anyone.  You need a dentist with the right credentials – like a degree from a prestigious school and professional affiliations with the American Dental Association and the California Dental Association.

You also need someone who is either a DDS (a Doctor of Dental Surgery), or a DMD (a Doctor of Dental Medicine). 

3.      Comfort

Lots of people are afraid of going to the Hollywood dentist.  You should be trying to find a Cosmetic dentist Los Angeles who makes you feel warm and welcome – from the moment you walk in, until the moment you walk out.  Don’t just look at the dentist himself; see how his entire staff acts.  Something like a rude receptionist or a nasty hygienist can make your dental experience a nightmare.

4.      Cost- effective

A good dentist will work with your dental insurance company to get your claims paid.  Or, if you’re paying for the services yourself, a good Hollywood dentist will let you know how much services and procedures cost – before you’re sitting in the patient chair.

Don’t leave your dentist search up to chance.  Instead, do your homework and make an informed decision. We have plenty of dentist reviews, tips, and advice that can make finding a Hollywood dentist much easier!
