smiling familyIf you’ve decided to make 2019 the year your family members have smiles that are healthy and bright, that’s wonderful! Now there is just one more question: how will you choose a dentist in Carrollton? There are a number of factors to consider and ways to research who will be the right for you and your family. Here is advice on how you can be certain you’ve chosen the right dentist for your smile.

Where is the Office Located?

Let’s be honest—you don’t want to drive halfway across the DFW Metroplex to see a dentist. There’s nothing wrong with making a dentist’s location part of your selection process. After all, you are much more likely to schedule regular dental checkups at a practice that is near your home or office. So choose a dentist in Carrollton that is conveniently located for you.

Can Your Whole Family See One Dentist?

A family dentist is trained to treat patients of all ages, so you only need to go to one place to receive all of the services you need. You’ll want to make sure the dentist offers preventive, restorative and cosmetic dentistry. In addition, emergency care is vital in case someone in the family needs relief from pain due to injury or severe tooth infection.

Does the Dentist Accept Insurance?

Of course, how you’ll pay for treatments is an important consideration when you’re choosing a dentist. If you have dental insurance, then you should look for a dentist who is in-network on your plan, so you can get the most out of your benefits. Some dentists accept government-issued insurance plans, such as Medicaid, CHIP, Liberty, DentaQuest, or MCNA. Be sure to ask about dental insurance when you call to schedule an appointment.

What Kind of Experience Does the Dentist Have?

A good place to start finding about a dentist is on the practice’s website. You can read his or her bio to find out where they attended dental school and where they completed a residency. What about advanced training or continuing education? These both indicate a dedication to the profession and a desire to stay abreast of the latest developments in the industry.

With answers to the above questions, you’ll have a good foundation on which to base your choice of a dentist in Carrollton. Once you’ve made your selection, don’t wait! Call today to schedule a checkup.
