What to look for when choosing a dentist

When you are moving to a new area or have simply had enough of the waiting list at your current dental surgery, you will probably be looking to join a new dental practice.

And, it may seem that all dental surgeries are, on the face of it, the same, aren’t they? You go in twice a year, have your teeth examined, and you go away. But, with more of an emphasis being placed on cosmetic dental care, there is now a lot more to consider when you choose a dental team to join.

When you are looking for a dental surgery to join that offers all of the basics and more, you should choose our team at Spa Dental Ryde. Our dentist Ryde, and our other specialists, like our orthodontist, hygienist and cosmetic dental team, will always be happy to see you and your family to help you get the great-looking smiles that you want and deserve.

So, with that in mind, if you are looking for a new dentist Ryde, what should you look for? Read on to find out!

Qualifications and experience

It is safe to presume that most dental teams will have experience in the area that they are advertising. But, especially when it comes to cosmetic dental care, you will want to make sure that there is no stone unturned and that the dental team you choose is trained in the procedure you want. Luckily, our cosmetic dentist Ryde will always be happy to show you the ‘before’ and ‘after’ section of our cosmetic dental services, so you can see exactly how our team can change your smile for the better.

Services offered

There is no dental surgery in the world that cannot offer a standard check-up.

But, if you are looking for dental surgery with an emphasis on having your teeth straightened or cosmetic work done, you will need to research the services that each surgery in the local area can offer. Similarly, as dental surgeries can now offer facial aesthetics, it is worth checking that if you want Botox, it is available.

Location

Where do you live? Is the surgery easy to get to?

If you have a car, this is unlikely to be a huge issue, but if you use public transportation, you will want to make sure that the surgery is within a reasonable distance.

Also, you will need to check the opening hours and ensure that they line up nicely with your work schedule.

Emergency hours

You don’t want to think about it, but does the surgery you are choosing offer emergency dental care? And if so, when does it offer it, and will you have access to it 24 hours a day, 7 days a week? This is important information, so when looking around for dental surgery, ask! At Spa Dental Ryde, we are proud to be able to offer emergency care.

Reviews

Always aim to look at the reviews of any dental surgery site you are looking to join. After all, customer care is a core part of what most dental teams do!

Our team at Spa Dental has a sparkling set of reviews, with an average of 5 stars. So, that is a good reason to join us.
