It’s important to find a dentist who is professional, takes good care of your teeth and with whom you are comfortable.

The American Dental Association suggests:

• Choosing a dentist whose office has a convenient location and hours, and is in your insurance network.
• Making sure you can communicate well with your dentist.
• Choosing a dentist who thoroughly explains preventive care.
• Choosing an office that offers flexible payment arrangements.
• Selecting an office that keeps your records in a permanent file.
• Looking for a dentist who considers your concerns, such as dental anxiety.
