Your overall health is reflected in the beauty of your smile. A gleaming white smile is the hallmark of health and wellness. If you have cavities, periodontal disease, or need a restoration after root canal, dental crowns may be able to restore the beauty of your smile and the health of your mouth in no time. Choosing a caring, compassionate, and skilled dentist for any procedure can be challenging. If you are looking for dental crowns in Scottsdale, taking your time to find the right dentist for you (and your family!) can make all the difference.
Where can I get Scottsdale dental crowns?
There are dentists everywhere. The dental industry in Arizona is thriving, with nearly 3,000 dentists in the state. If you live in Scottsdale, dental crowns (and the dentists who place them) are as common as sunshine.
But it’s not just about quantity. Going to just any dentist in Scottsdale does not guarantee the best dental work. The quality of the dentist you choose matters.
The importance of a good dentist
A good dentist does more than care for your teeth. They care for your overall health and well-being. This means treating not only dental issues that arise but also working with you and your doctors on any underlying health issues that may affect your dental health.
In the U.S., over 36% of adults between the ages of 44 and 60 have untreated dental caries. When it comes to periodontal disease, the statistics are similarly grim.
- Nearly 9% of adults age 20 to 64 have periodontal disease, with another 5% having moderate to severe periodontal disease
- Gum disease is concentrated in older adults, Black and Hispanic adults, current smokers, and those with lower incomes and less education
- Seniors 65 and over have the highest incidence of periodontal disease (17%) and moderate to severe periodontal disease (almost 11%)
Good dental care is important for your whole life. Untreated cavities can lead to periodontal disease, abscessed teeth, and more serious health issues.
The AZ Dentist difference means that we want to be your dentist for life. We ask about what you need and want from the moment you enter our offices and build a relationship with you and your family from there. We believe in dental care that cares for all of you, not just your teeth.
Our first goal is overall health and wellness, beginning with an allopathic base of knowledge. We expand on that base with ongoing training, highly skilled support staff, and up-to-date understanding of the latest in dental research.
How to find dental crowns in Scottsdale
Even with so many to choose from, finding an affordable, skilled dentist in Scottsdale requires a little legwork. Dig a little deeper using the following tips.
Ask family and friends for referrals
Your family and friends are the best source for a real-life evaluation of their dental experience. They can show you their pearly whites and also take you through their visit, from the front office staff to the dental hygienist and dentist.
It matters that you feel welcome from the moment you walk in the door to the moment your smile is restored.
Look for experience first
When it comes to dental crowns, you want a dentist who can offer you options. AZ Dentist has experience with many types of crowns, including:
We want you to have options in your dental crowns. Which one you choose will depend on your unique circumstances, budget, and preferences.
We also want you to know that our experience means your crowns will be fitted and placed correctly. Open margin on crown is a common issue; we know because we have corrected this for many of our patients coming from other dentists.
Dr. Janne Lynch has decades of combined experience in practice. Her commitment to providing the best care, individualized to each patient, means that your dental crowns (and other cosmetic dental work) will be as durable as they are beautiful.
Evaluate their approach to pain management
We do not believe in the “grin and bear it” school of dentistry. Our goal is a pain-free, pleasant experience in every way possible.
This means we offer you a variety of pain management options to alleviate the anxiety many people feel when they visit the dentist. We spend time before your appointment to explain your options and help you to make the best choice for you.
Look at objective reviews and evaluations
The internet can provide a wealth of information with reviews and information on a dentist’s office hours, demeanor, and services offered.
Visit a dentist’s website to read about their philosophy and goals in working with patients and to find out all about the services they offer and the conditions they treat.
Schedule a meeting
Nothing beats a face-to-face meeting with a prospective dentist in Scottsdale. Ask prospective cosmetic dentists about their office hours, treatment of emergencies, the insurance they accept, and philosophy of patient care. This practical information may be the last thing you need to make an informed decision.
