How to choose a good dentist and a clinic?
What should one be guided by when choosing a dentist? Whom should one entrust his teeth with? Is it better to turn to an experienced professor or a gifted specialist using new technologies? Unfortunately there is no universal answer.
We can only give some recommendations to be followed while choosing a doctor or a clinic:
A doctor must have much experience in the orthodontic sphere. To make your choice you may ask the dentist: "How many people are you treating today?"
In most cases it is possible to choose one out of some systems of brackets and the doctor has to recommend the one that best suits your needs.
Mind that before you start treatment it is necessary to make an X-ray examination of teeth, make dental models, and photograph the face and the teeth. If you were not asked to undergo minimal diagnosing think again about your choice.
A doctor who promises to cure you in less than half a year is most probably telling lies.
A doctor must inform you about the careful mouth cavity hygiene and regular cleaning of teeth.
Instruments used in orthodontic treatment are not cheap and some clinics begin to save on materials.
All materials must be taken out of a sterile package.
