Q. What should someone look for when choosing a new dentist?
A. I think that the doctor’s reputation in the community is very important. Then, when you meet the new dentist you should feel that you have trust in him or her. This will be developed by the doctor’s personality, the disposition of the staff and the appearance of the office. A clean office with modern technology shows that the dentist cares about you and the treatment you will receive.
