If you have recently moved to a new area, started a family or are just looking for a new dentist for your existing family, choosing the right dental practice is tricky.
The first thing we should point out is that not all dentists are family dentists here in Calgary.
Whilst most dental practices will take on families with young children, a practice that describes itself as a Family Dental Practice is looking specifically to help families.
That’s an important distinction to make when you’re looking for a dental practice for your family, for a couple of reasons.
First and foremost, family dental clinics usually have more experience in providing dental care to young children.
Children who are unfamiliar with the dentist and the experience of visiting a dental clinic can sometimes find the process to be a scary one, and it’s not uncommon for young children to develop cases of dental anxiety in the run-up to a dental appointment.
An experienced family dentist can help to alleviate that stress and unfamiliarity by creating a welcoming and fun environment for children who visit the practice.
Here at Kherani Dental at Aspen, we have been treating children in our family dental clinic for years.
Creating a relaxed and welcoming environment for all the family is something that runs throughout our entire clinic. Our staff are friendly and approachable and always take the time to make you feel at home.
Another reason you should consider visiting a trusted family dentist in Calgary is to help your children to understand the basics of great dental hygiene from an early age.
A good family dentist will always take the time to help teach your children the basics of caring for their teeth and why it’s important to do so – helping them to maintain happy and healthy teeth throughout the course of their life and setting them up for dental success.
What To Look For In A Good Family Dentist
A good family dentist in Calgary will always take the time to talk you through all of your dental options.
They will take the time to get to know you and to find out about your lifestyle so that they can recommend the best treatments for your family’s situation.
As we mentioned briefly in the point above, avoid taking your family to a dentist that doesn’t describe themselves as a family dental practice.
Another good point to consider when choosing your dentist is their reviews. A great family dental clinic will be proud of their reviews and provide easy access to all of their patient feedback. You can read all of our reviews on Google, right here.
