We know that sometimes we may have certain insecurities about which dentist will treat us and especially if we are looking for new alternatives outside our comfort zone. As well as to know if the dentist with whom we are attending is really good as a professional, which could make us a stable base on which to rely.
At first glance we cannot know how good the dentist will be. So, it is normal that this new reality causes us some panic and even anxiety, as the wait can slowly kill us. But even if you are dying of fear, do you know how to really evaluate a dentist to determine if he is a dedicated professional or not?
So that you can be ready and be aware of what you are going to find inside the office, we will explain two fundamental keys to determine if you should stay with that dentist or run to another place urgently.
We know that your main concern will be not to feel pain and that the treatment is carried out in a good way without any kind of inconvenience, that in the best possible case you return home with all your teeth intact or with a treatment that ensures the cure of your disease. And really, these particular points can be “covered” apparently by any specialist in the area. But, there are other little aspects that a person in a new practice should be aware of in order to determine if it is really worth the time we are investing in the place.
From our experience, we tell you to evaluate everything as a whole every time you visit a new dental practice and don’t be afraid to take the time to choose the best one that suits you and your primary needs, which may not be the same as those of another patient.
Actually, the branch of dentistry is incredibly long. There are so many professions that can be drawn from this field that we could not count them simply with the help of our fingers. Among these specialties, we can find: Orthodontics, Implantology, Periodontics, Dental Aesthetics, Prosthodontics, Conservative Dentistry, and Pediatric Dentistry.
Believe us when we tell you that although the dentist may seem excellent. It is really impossible and unjustifiable for him to apply to perform all these branches alone, and really cover all the knowledge he covers.
It is like when you decide to go to the doctor for a heart problem, who will you trust more, the cardiologist or the general practitioner? Well, clearly the one who specializes in the area and can offer you much more complete care.
While you are looking for the ideal dental clinic, you may realize that there will be a lot of small dental offices, centers, or clinics that will only have one dentist. And that is when we should seriously walk away from the place and consider new options that do offer full specialization.
At CDC Dental Clinic, we make sure to bring in the best specialists in the area and meet all of your treatment expectations.
Although we have dentists who will give you general overviews. You can have the support of a large number of specialists behind every procedure you need that goes beyond the simple.
We make sure that the people who work side by side in this office are sufficiently informed in the most current techniques in their field to be able to offer the patient the optimal treatment for what he or she needs.
And again we repeat: Dentist cannot perform extractions, root canals, dental cleanings, x-rays, fillings, all by himself. There is always a great team behind him that will be helping him to cover all the areas that cannot be learned individually.
As we have already mentioned, there are multiple factors that we should keep in mind when going for the first consultation with a dentist, and not only the number of specialists there.
While you are in the place and you are being treated, be aware of every factor in the office that can confirm that you are in a trustworthy place. Specifically, in the way, the staff treats each other, the equipment, the dentist who treats you. But, if you need us to specify the factors, here we will give you a detailed description of each one.
From the person who attends you at the beginning of the consultation, to the specialists to whom you are referred during your stay. Look at their attitudes and how they treat patients and you as an individual. People we should trust our people who respect our individuality, understand our needs, remain friendly in your presence, and explain every process that will be carried out to make you feel as comfortable as possible during your stay in the office, as well as not skimping on time when you need something explained to you.
You can even tell a lot about a specialist if they allow you to contact them outside of the office for any questions, an option that even though we won’t use much. It’s good to know we have and it tells us that the dentist is really attentive to our case.
It is essential to ask for different types of tests when determining what a patient has, and this will say a lot about the professional.
Even if you have the most experienced in the world and have seen thousands of cases like yours, it is important to individualize the case and always treat it as if it were the first.
Pay attention to how you are treated and how the materials are distributed around the office. This is a fundamental good impression in a medical facility.
It is important that you use brands and materials that are of the same quality for which you pay so much for dental treatment. Because a poor quality material could determine the final factor of the treatment, and here we do not want something poorly made.
It is logical that a dentist who considers himself an excellent specialist is aware of all the modern medical procedures and the need for state-of-the-art technologies, therefore he will try to have them in his clinic to offer a better service to his clients.
If you are looking for a dentist and a reliable team that is really worth your while, visit us at CDC Dental Clinic, located in Tirana. We assure you that we fulfill all the above-mentioned characteristics and much more. Our main goal is to provide you with a service that leaves you with no doubt that you are in good hands.
