Whether you are moving house and going to a new suburb or you simply want to change your dentist, it’s important to choose a dentist in Melbourne that is right for you and your family. Your oral health is an extremely important part of your overall health so making the right choice is more significant than you may think.
Top 5 Considerations for Choosing the Right Dentist
=> Referrals & Reviews
Ask friends and family members about their dentist and write down the dental practice details. Add to that list, a couple of local dentists near where you live or work. If you are looking for a dentist in Melbourne, conduct a search for a dentist Melbourne cbd or dentist Melbourne to see what results there are.
With the convenience of the internet, look up those dental practices on the list you have made and see what reviews have been left for them. It’s important to note that sometimes fake reviews are left, so take a broad view and see if the dental practice has responded to any bad reviews.
=> Credentials and Experience
Using the same list that you’ve created, do some research on the dental practice’s website to find out about the team. For example, Holistic Dental Melbourne cbd has information on our team via a link called team that is under the About Us. Often you can find out about a dental practice via an ‘About’ page.
If you believe you require cosmetic surgery or more extensive dental work, find out how experienced the Dentist is with those particular oral treatments.
=> Dental Practice Location in Melbourne
Take into account transport to get to the dental practice you choose. How easy is it to get there; if you are using public transport or if you require parking, do they have disability access if that’s needed, would you want to see your dentist near your place of work or home? Given that it’s important to schedule bi-annual dental check-ups, or if you have more dental work that is needed, having a dentist in the right location can be important.
=> Call the Dental Practices
If you have some questions about your dental health, call each dental practice and find out how comfortable you are with their style of communication. Sometimes this might require seeing the dentist that will be working with you on your oral health. We understand that for many people, going to the dentist can cause anxiety so speaking with each practice can help you identify a good communication fit.
=> Insurance Options, Fee Structure and Payment Plans
If you have dental insurance or are considering it, find out what each Dentist in Melbourne from your list provides and if you can use your dental insurance with them.
It’s important to find out about the fee structure of your short-listed Dentists.
If the dental work is extensive and you believe you may need to pay it off, you’ll be glad to know that some dentists in Melbourne provide payment plans.
