An estimated 75% of people suffer from severe to slight dental phobias. While the exact reasons for phobias like these vary, they often stem from the uncertainty which comes with visiting a different dentist at every appointment. But this is a fear you can do away with altogether when you seek family dentistry instead.
That’s because, as their title suggests, family dentists are professionals who offer a wide range of care for patients of all ages. Rather than passing you along to a new dentist for various treatments, a family dentist has the expanded education and experience to tackle all your care with few exceptions. Even better, this broad range of experience means that the whole family can develop a relationship with one dentist with whom they can always trust and feel safe. Ongoing treatment brings all manner of benefits for you as a patient. For one, you get to enjoy the convenience of booking appointments for you and your spouse, toddler or teen on the same day. You can also rest easy that your family dentist will come to know you and your specific dental needs over the years—meaning more personalized care. You will never again feel like you are a number in a production line!
