<p>When searching for a new dentist, people should consider what dental services they need. People should determine which branch of dentistry they require treatment from when looking for a dentist. While general dentists perform routine checkups and cleanings, not every practice offers specialty treatments.</p>
<p>There are many online resources that people can use as well. People can learn more information about the specifications of various types of dental work and locate providers in the nearby area. Internet research can confirm that a dental provider has the right qualifications and degrees. Do not hesitate to ask prospective dentists about their qualifications and experience.</p>

<h2 itemprop="alternativeHeadline" class="text-contrast">What to Look for In a General Dentist</h2>
<div class="divider divider-solid"></div>
<p>A general dentist is a partner in a patient’s oral health. They track each patient’s family history and ensure they receive regular checkups and professional cleanings. A general dentist can also help patients maintain regular dental care, educate them on daily hygiene, and provide common dental services in-office. They may also offer some restorative services, such as crowns, bridges, or dentures, and some emergency procedures and cavity care as needed.</p>
<p>People looking for a general dentist should do their research and find a dentist that helps them feel comfortable and in control of their oral health. It helps to ask for <a title="Read more about Finding a Dentist" href="https://www.webmd.com/oral-health/guide/finding-dentist#1" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" style="text-decoration: underline;" class="TLBC" id="ALR-Find-a-Dentist">referrals from friends or family</a> and consider each dentist’s credentials and qualifications. Scheduling a consultation or calling the dental office can also allow people to evaluate the dentist and address any questions or concerns.</p>

<h2 itemprop="alternativeHeadline" class="text-contrast">Finding the Right Fit</h2>
<div class="divider divider-solid"></div>
<p>Since dental health is an important aspect of overall health, it is crucial to find a dentist who is the right fit. Finding the right dentist gives people a comfortable place to receive routine check-ups and a safe and trusted place to turn for a procedure or dental emergency. Look for a practice that is clean, comfortable, and relaxing. The dental team should be friendly and reassuring from the moment each patient walks through the door. Many patients are nervous about visiting the dentist. The right provider understands dental anxiety and knows how to combat nervousness.</p>
<p>People should also consider their preferences and needs when looking for the right dentist. Some patients may have a strong preference for a male or female dentist. Larger dental practices often employ several dentists who may rotate their duties. Patients who opt for a larger practice may discover that they can not choose their dentist. Patients who prefer working with one dentist may choose a solo practice instead. A smaller dental team can ensure that a patient sees the same provider during each visit.</p>

<div class="divider divider-solid"></div>
<p>Insurance companies can provide a list of qualified dental providers. Keep in mind that different practices have varying payment policies. Patients who plan to use dental insurance must confirm that their chosen provider accepts their insurance plan. Uninsured patients may want to research information about cash payments or payment plans. It is beneficial to ask about a provider's policies before seeking treatment.</p>
<p>Patients can use the American Dental Association or state licensing board as resources to check a dentist’s qualifications. These organizations reveal information about a provider's license and professional history. For patients struggling to find a provider, the American Dental Association (ADA)  can provide information about dental providers based on location and specialty. Dentists that are members of the American Dental Association make five pledges in the <a title="Read more about Ethics: The 5 Promises ADA Dentists Make to Their Patients" href="https://www.mouthhealthy.org/en/az-topics/e/Ethics-and-Dentistry" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" style="text-decoration: underline;" class="TLBC" id="ALR-Find-a-Dentist">ADA Principles of Ethics and Code of Professional Conduct</a>.</p>

<div class="divider divider-solid"></div>
<p>A majority of internet users use online reviews when choosing to work with local businesses. Reviews on sites such as Yelp and Google Reviews can provide helpful insight into whether a dentist is the right fit. These sites collect feedback from current or former patients. While this information can be useful, it may not always be accurate.</p>
<p>This information is not enough when looking for a new dentist. It is beneficial to look at reviews on multiple websites. While online reviews can be a great starting point when searching for a dentist, the information is not comprehensive. People should make sure to conduct additional research beyond just reading online reviews.</p>
