CHOOSING A DENTIST

What Should You Look for in a Dentist?

Can you say that your dentist actually cares about you? Do they REALLY care about you…like family?

Our Long Beach Dental Office strives to establish lasting relationships with our patients. In fact, building a solid relationship with our patients is one of the most important aspects of our dental practice. We strive for excellence in all that we do, and we look forward to helping you make the most of your smile right now and for years to come. When prospective patients come to our office, they know how committed we are to their dental health. In this dental office, the comfort and satisfaction of our patients comes first and we encourage open communication between our staff and patients.

When you choose a dentist make sure they do the same.

Education

Let’s take a look at the journey of a new dentist. The undergraduate coursework and degree takes four years. Then we have another four years for the dental degree itself (in the form of either a DDS or a DMD). When you think about it however, this is really just the start of the journey for the dentist! What determines the real competency of your dentist is the training and experience that he gets after that point.

Ask your potential dentist about his or her continuing education. This is where you will find the dentist that matches your needs. For example, if your dental needs are minimal then most dentists could be good candidates for you. If you have more extensive or even complex dental needs, however, then looking for a dentist that has more advanced, hands-on training would be a wise decision. Dr. Susan Lee has spent many years taking primarily hands-on advanced care training to deal with anything. Whether your dental needs are big or small, we are ready to help you!

Proof

Talk is cheap. Is that what you’re thinking? Anyone can buy a book of sample dentistry showing before-and-after photographs. Ask your potential dentist to show you before and after pictures of their work. Please feel free to ask us about any of the pictures you see on our website, in our photo books and on the walls of our office. They are our patients and we love to talk about how you can get the same results as our other satisfied patients.
