Are you battling tooth and gum problems? Dental check-ups are a must for a great oral health and it is vital that you visit your dentist regularly. Remember great oral health has an impact on your overall well-being too.

Dentistry can be broadly divided into two classes – General dentistry and cosmetic dentistry.

General dentistry deals with all kinds of preventive and restorative measures that can help you maintain healthy teeth and gums. It includes routine dental check-ups, dental cleanings, extractions including wisdom tooth problems, treating sore tooth & gum issues, oral cancer screenings and more. It basically encompasses overall management & treatment of everyday dental issues that include crowns and bridges, dentures, root canal treatments and dental fillings.

Here are some points you should keep in mind when choosing a dentist.

Location – Your dentist should always be located close to your home or office. This makes it convenient and you do not tend to miss your regular appointments.

Timings – What are the timings of your chosen dental clinic? Do they match your schedule?
Parking – Is there parking space available? This may seem a pretty insignificant issue but can become a problem at times.

Certifications and technology – Make sure you always opt for a dentist who is ADA (Australian Dental Association) certified. Your dental service provider must also be aware of the latest technology and equipment.

Overall Ambience – How does one feel when entering the clinic? How is the behaviour of the assisting staff? Try gathering feedback about the dentist and other staff. You can ask the staff about contact details of patients and talk to them directly.

Emergency policy– What is the emergency policy of your dentist? Does he/she prioritize emergency cases or entertain calls on weekends in case of an urgent need?

Keeping these points in mind will help you choose the right dentist.

If you are looking for a smile makeover, you need to consult a cosmetic dentist. Cosmetic dentistry is all about enhancing the appearance of a person’s teeth and thus improving one’s smile. Some people have broken or missing teeth due to an accident or their teeth are yellow or have patches. Cosmetic dental procedures as dental bridges, bonding and whitening help people get a beautiful set of teeth that they can feel proud of and add to their confidence and personality.
