When you go into your downtown dental Toronto office, there are questions you can ask to make sure you are getting the best service. Most dentists are pretty straightforward, but you might want to know more. Below we’ll list some of the questions you might want to ask your dentist when you go in for your appointment. Don’t be shy - dental professionals are used to it and will be happy to answer them for you.
Before You Go
Find out about pricing and insurance coverage before you go. What's the charge for each service and what will your insurance cover? Also a good idea is to find out if your dentist accommodates for an emergency service and how much it may cost.
When You Get into the Chair
Once you get to your appointment, you can ask questions about the health of your teeth and what the dentist would recommend, both in terms of your personal care and his/her services. Make sure that the dentist is able to justify why the recommended treatments are necessary. This is a good way to save money because some dentists will make suggestions of things you might not actually need. You should ask what you can do to improve your oral health and if there are foods you can eat to help you make them better.
You should always ask if you have any concerns or something the dentist hasn’t addressed during your visit. If you have a pain and they did not locate any problem visually, tell them about the location of your pain so they can provide a more thorough examination. Asking questions will help make the whole experience better for you and then dentist especially if you don’t like going in for cleanings in the first place.
