    Tips for Choosing a Dentist Tips for Choosing a Dentist

    There are a lot of dentists to choose from in St. Louis, but some are better than others. You should take every precaution to ensure that your dentist is experienced, professional, and able to perform the services you and your family need. Whether you need a cosmetic dentist for teeth whitening, an oral surgeon to perform a dental implant, or you simply need a checkup, these tips will help you find a dentist you can trust in St. Louis .

    Ask Around for Recommendations
    You trust your friends, family, and neighbors when they make recommendations about which movies to see and which new restaurants to check out, so why not ask them for a dentist recommendation? Even if your friends and family don’t have any dentists to recommend in the St. Louis area, they will almost always tell you which dentists to avoid.

    Look for a “Full-Service” Dental Practice
    There are a lot of “specialized” dental practices in St. Louis, especially of the cosmetic variety. You could drive all around town to different practices, or you could find a dentist that offers all the services you need. West County Dental, for example, provides everything from teeth whitening and Invisalign to oral surgery and dental implants. Once you build a relationship with your dentist, you will be happy that you don’t need to go anywhere else to undergo a special treatment.

    We Accept Most Dental Insurance
    Most traditional insurance plans (sometimes called “indemnity plans”) allow you to choose any dentist you desire. Other plans list specific dentists in your network. If your plan does not allow you to choose your own dentist , make sure the dentist is covered by your insurance policy. And remember that dental insurance doesn’t typically cover 100% of the cost associated with major dental services, so look for a dentist that offers no interest and extended payment plans.
