AFFORDABLE DENTAL CARE

 

We have all experienced it, whether grocery shopping, filling up the car and just about everything else we do.

We are paying substantially higher prices for the necessities of life. We find ourselves having to be extra careful as to how and on what we spend our money.

 

Dental care is no exception. We tend to put off that nagging toothache or the cavity we need to have filled. Regular dental exams and cleanings can be seen as an expense that can be put off.

 

This is understandable, however, putting off dental care and dental treatment can and will result in you paying more for dental care.

Why? When you neglect your oral health, minor issues quickly and without warning will turn into major issues.

 

It is very important to note, that dental fees in Ontario are set by the Ontario Dental Association.

 

So how do you find affordable dental care?

  • look for a well established dental office (with a proven track record of serving the community)
  • choose a dentist that is thorough (a fully comprehensive dental exam is vital to your oral health)
  • choose a dentist that is transparent. You should feel free to ask any questions you have about your treatment. A good dental professional will be honest and upfront about what treatment you need despite the cost. They are there to treat you and help you to maintain your oral health. In other words, Patient-focused dental care
  • choose a dental clinic that offers a variety of dental services (orthodontics, periodontics, dentures etc.)
  • you should get a good feeling when you enter a dental clinic (you should be made to feel comfortable and respected )
  • mutual respect between the dental professional and the patient is crucial to your oral care

 

As you can see affordable dental care involves much more than just the cost. It is the treatment you receive. The knowledge that your dental professional will only recommend the treatment you need. It is knowing that there are no surprises coming (a full dental exam will allow your dentist to diagnose and treat whatever dental issues are found.). Confidence that you leave your dental office knowing that you have received the best dental care you deserve.
