Have you been with your dentist for a long time? Here are 10 occasions when it might be time to find a new dental practice.
1. You may want to consider a new dentist if your current one doesn't offer the procedures or have the facilities that you need.
2. If you've suffered a bad experience at your dental practice, particularly something they performed which went badly, then you may not want to return.
3. Bad experiences can also come in the form of poor service and, like with any other business that wants your custom, you have a right to expect to be looked after.
4. Your need for a new dental practice could be as simple as moving to a new area or city. For instance, you may have moved to Scotland and require a Glasgow dentist.
5. Sometimes, change is good and if you've been with the same practice for years and feel you want to see if there's something better elsewhere, maybe it's time to move on.
6. You may be forced to look for an alternative dentist if your local practice has closed down without a replacement being offered.
7. If the practice has closed down but you are not satisfied by the levels of experience the replacement has or you don't get on with them, you may decide it's time for a change.
8. Dentists can be daunting places to go to, particularly if you're going to have quite a lot of work done, so it's important they make you feel comfortable. If yours doesn't, you probably want to find one that's more friendly.
9. If you have saved up some money to have major procedures performed, you may want to go more up market and find the best dentist in the city to carry them out.
10. If you've not been to the dentist in years, particularly your NHS dentist, then you may no longer be registered with them. In these scenarios, you'll need to find somewhere new to go.
So, to use the example above, if you do need a new Glasgow dentist, why not use an online Glasgow directory to help you find them?
