Are you looking for a dentist? If so, great job! Keeping your oral health strong is incredibly important to your quality of life, and a good dentist can make all the difference. At Lavaca Dental, we know that finding a good dentist can be daunting. However, there are some clear signs of good and bad dentists.

A CLEAN, PLEASANT OFFICE

You can use the waiting room of your dentist to judge their methods. If waiting room is disorderly, there’s a good chance the the rest of the office isn’t trustworthy. Keep an eye peeled for dirty gloves or tool stowed in places that don’t make sense.

FOLLOW UP

Depending on the type of procedure you have, you can feel the effects for a good while after. The dentist you want to use will check in with you after any long procedure in order to ensure there are no complications.

WILLING TO EDUCATE

A great dentist is happy to be responsible for your knowledge. This dentist will educate you in habits, treatment options, and oral health. You won’t feel silly asking questions, because the dentist will always take the time to answer your questions and bolster your confidence.

ACTIVE LISTENING

A great dentist isn’t only good at dentistry – listening is also a speciality. You will feel like your concerns are heard and that you aren’t being pushed into a treatment you aren’t comfortable with.
