If you have an emergency or you need to get in for an appointment, your Dentist should be available to help you. Many Dental Emergencies need immediate attention and it is important that you are an established patient of record with a Dentist that is available when you need him even if it is after office hours or on a weekend. You also want your Dentist to make arrangements for another Dentist to cover his emergencies when he is unavailable.

​You should not have to wait a long time for an appointment. You want your Dentist to be able to see his established patients for routine care within a reasonable length of time.

Your Dentist cannot be an expert in every area of Dental Care and should make referrals to appropriate Dental Specialists when it is in your best interest. If you need the care of a Dental Specialist you want your Dentist to be your advocate and communicate your needs to the specialist and assist you in getting a timely appointment.

Thanks for sharing such great information! Dentistry is the medical specialty that deals with the mouth, teeth, and gums. It focuses on oral disease diagnosis, prevention, treatment, and rehabilitation.

There are many distinct dental specializations, such as orthodontics, pediatric dentistry, endodontics, and periodontics, but in general, dentists check patients' mouths for signs of oral illnesses or other issues. To strengthen tooth enamel, they may recommend fluoride treatments or dental sealants, as well as antibiotics to treat gum disease. Dentists also educate patients on good oral hygiene habits like brushing and flossing their teeth to help avoid gum disease and foul breath.

Having a reliable and available dentist is crucial, especially during emergencies. It's reassuring to know that your dentist is there for you and has contingency plans in place if they're unavailable. As a patient, it's important to establish a good relationship with your dentist and prioritize their availability when choosing a dental practice.

It is crucial for a dentist to be available in case of emergencies and to ensure timely appointments for routine care. Referrals to dental specialists should also be made when necessary. Communication and advocacy are important qualities in a dentist.
