Why A Good Smile Matters

By Rey Vetangelo


It's quite simple-you go to the dentist so you can have good oral health that lasts your entire life. It's a long-term goal, and good dental care is never less important during any one stage of your life. Sure, regular dental checkups are crucial for small children to grow healthy permanent teeth, but that doesn't mean it's any less important to see a dentist once you're an adult.

When you take seeing the dentist as part of a life-long goal, then you can start to see why choosing the right dentist can be so important. You want to find someone who will support you on your journey, who knows you personally and knows your family, too. You want a dentist you can trust-someone who has your long-term interests at heart, and won't recommend unneeded procedures to make a quick buck.

Once you have him saying yes, then you are ready to end the pitch. The same thing goes on when you smile. You can help a customer, boss, or anyone really, get into a good mood just by readily smiling.

When a child is fearful, stressed, or just anxious there can be some great help from a mother who comes to aid the child with a hug and a smile. There something both reassuring and calming when someone tells you that everything is going to be ok especially when they do so with a smile. This is especially important for doctors who need to help a patient heal both physically and mentally at times. Great doctors have good smiles that make people feel much better just like medicine does.

Beyond regular brushing and flossing habits, regular dental attendance will help your child become comfortable with visiting the dentist. That way your child will learn to enjoy trips to the dentist, and they will never learn to dread the dentist office in the way that many adults do.

At a corporate dental practice, you won't have much of a chance to get to know everyone in the office because there are so many people working there. It's unlikely that you'll even have the same dentist every time you go in for your regular checkup.

The larger the dental practice, the more overhead there is. In order for a large corporate dentistry to thrive, they need to meet a quota of patients. The dentist has to focus on making money for the sake of the corporation.

When you visit a family dental practice, on the other hand, you're dealing with a small, intimate staff that handles everything in-house. Not only do you get to know your dentist over the years, you get to know the person at the front desk who schedules your appointments, and the assistants who help clean your teeth. Everyone is focused on one thing-making your experience more enjoyable and helping you achieve your dental goals.
