Your family needs a new dentist. Perhaps you have just relocated to the area, or your long-time dentist has retired.\u00a0 Making the right decision on a new Framingham MA dentist is important to your family\u2019s oral and systemic health.\u00a0 Marianna<\/a> Gaitsgory<\/a> DMD<\/a> and her staff invite you to ask questions about their general and cosmetic dentistry practice.<\/p>\n There are 3 areas prospective dental patients should question:<\/p>\n So, do some careful research. Ask the dentist where he or she attended undergraduate and dental school. The dental school must be fully accredited, and explore the dentist\u2019s website and online review sites for continuing education credentials. In addition, your dentist should belong to one or more professional associations such as the American<\/a> Dental<\/a> Association<\/a>.<\/a> This keeps doctor and staff accountable to other professionals and current on the latest trends and techniques in dental care.<\/p>\n Next, find out what procedures the dentist offers and what preventive, restorative and cosmetic procedures he or she offers. A dedicated general dentist such as Dr. Marianna Gaitsgory values preventive dentistry, emphasizing 6-month check-ups and cleanings, sealants and fluoride treatments to prevent decay and state of the art diagnostic services such as periodontal probing, digital x-rays and oral cancer assessments. These services are essential to good oral health and systemic well-being, too.<\/p>\n Additionally, an excellent dentist offers several innovative restorative and cosmetic services with little need to refer to other practitioners. Does the doctor perform:<\/p>\n Think about your current or past dental needs and find out if the dentist can address them. For instance, you have an older teen in need of orthodontic care? What options does the new dentist offer–traditional braces, Invisalign clear braces, or is orthodontic treatment referred elsewhere?<\/p>\n Or, what about specialty treatments such as TMJ therapy, BOTOX or dermal fillers or bad breath treatment? A well-rounded cosmetic dentist delivers these expertly as needed and considers the patient\u2019s health needs and aesthetic goals as well.<\/p>\n Finally, your family deserves a dentist who puts the patient first. Individualized, compassionate treatment is the hallmark of Framingham Premier Dental. Ask your prospective dentist for a tour of the office. Is the atmosphere friendly and relaxed? Are treatment rooms orderly and clean?<\/p>\n Find out what sedation and pain control options are offered. Is the dentist on-call for urgent and emergency needs? Inquire about how the staff handles insurance claims and what financing options are available.<\/p>\n Get satisfactory answers to all your questions about dental care by contacting Framingham Premier Dental. You\u2019ll find the experience, techniques and compassion to keep you and your family smiling for years to come.
