Questions to ask your Dentist

Knowing about your condition and treatment options are two of the first steps in understanding what can be done to sustain a healthy lifestyle. Many of your questions can be answered by your dentist. Below is a sample list of questions that can aid you in learning about your condition and treatment options.

  1. How can I improve my dental health?
  2. Should I change my toothpaste or floss more?
  3. Should I use a fluoride rinse?
  4. Are the desired results I described realistic?
  5. Is there an alternative treatment that I should consider as well?
  6. How long will the procedure take and how many appointments are necessary?
  7. What kind of anesthesia is used, if any?
  8. How much does it cost?
  9. How long have you performed this procedure?
  10. How many procedures have you preformed in the past year?
  11. What percentages of your patients have had significant complications?
  12. Will you repeat or correct procedures if it does not meet agreed upon goals? And if the procedure must be repeated / corrected, will I be charged again?
  13. What kind of longevity can I expect?
  14. May I see "before and after" photos of recent patients?
  15. Could I observe the exact procedure I am considering before I decide to have it done?
  16. What should I expect after the procedure, in terms of soreness, what to watch for, and any limitations?
  17. Do you offer patient financing?
