Tips for Choosing a General Dentist

Your general dentist is an incredibly important figure in your life. General dentistry can play a significant role in keeping you and your family happy and healthy – after all, dental health and general health are closely connected. So we know it’s important for our Goldsboro-area patients to make a good choice when they’re looking for a dentist.

If we had one tip to offer those looking for high-quality general dentistry, it would be to focus on experience. There’s really no substitute for it. Dental school is invaluable, of course, but there’s a significant difference between the theory and practice of dentistry. Make sure that the dentist you choose has ample experience.

And make sure that experience is relevant to you. Carefully consider your dental needs, then examine whether or not the dentist in question can meet them. Even great dentists have gaps in their knowledge bases, and a dentist’s skill does you no good if it doesn’t fit with your needs. For example, if you’re going to need dental help for your entire family, make sure the dentist’s office has family dentistry services.

At Boles, Ham, Dixon & Boles, DDS, our dentists have decades of experience in the field. And we offer a huge range of procedures so that we can meet all of your family’s dental needs.
