Going to the dentist is not everyone's favorite thing to do. We often see patients that have not been to a dentist in years for several different reasons. For some, even one bad dental experience can ruin it forever. Whether it was a scary dental visit as a child, or an unpleasant experience as an adult, most people have a reason why they are not fans of the dentist. However, there is hope that there is still a dental office for you.

Finding the right dentist is all about comfort and trust. Discovering an office that makes your feel comfortable is crucial. Every detail is important when it comes to your comfort level. It could be the music playing in the office, how comfortable the chairs are or the bedside manner during your procedure. If you can bond with the dentist and dental staff this helps eliminate any dental anxiety. While you are in our office, you will find reassurance in our friendly and knowledgeable staff. Our goal at Gilbert Dental Center is to make sure your comfort is our top priority.

The next key to finding the right dental office is finding a team that can you trust. When you have a dentist that you can trust it makes all the difference. You should be able to understand what the dentist is saying to you and what your treatment entails before you leave the office. While building a good relationship with your dentist is important, so is building a relationship with the rest of the staff. When you feel like you can trust the front office team it allows you to ask questions freely. You should always feel like you can pick up the phone and call the office at any time. Your relationship with your hygienist is so important because you will see them anywhere from 2-4 times in a year. Your hygienist is the one that will provide education and tools to help you maintain a healthy smile between your dental check-ups. Your dental assistants are typically with you every step of the way during any dental procedure. Your dental assistants work side by side with the dentist and can usually answer the majority of your questions. Lastly, a good treatment coordinator will take the time to answer any questions regarding your dental insurance and any out of pocket cost. At Gilbert Dental Center we offer flexible financing to accommodate each patient's individual circumstances.

We encourage everyone to take their time doing their own research to find the office that is perfect for them. Read Google reviews, look at the office's social media and website, or stop in to feel out the office for yourself. We hope you find yourself part of our Gilbert Dental Center family. We look forward to meeting you soon!
