ERICA,
Let me give you the answer from an actual dentist!.
To find out whether or not a dentist happens to actually be "a good one
is to ask other professionals you know which dentist they know and which one they would choose themselves!.
To be a dentist in the first place requires much education and training!.
So then, what does it take to be a good dentist!?

1!.a degree from a dental school!. (this requires much effort)
2!. a license from the State to practice dentistry and
3!. a fiduciary attitude toward your patients and their dentistry

Point #3 is the most important and the one that separates a "good dentist" from a "bad one!."Www@Answer-Health@Com

I don't think its their skill level which really makes a difference, because they've been to the same amount of school!. A good dentist, will have good people skills, be kind, and sincere!. Some dentists have M!.D as well as a D!.M!.D, generally oral surgeons but they will have more insight into general ansethia and such!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

You have asked a good question!. The specialists in town have a good bead on the skill of dentists!. Ask a periodontist or an orthodontist or oral surgeon for the names of some general practioners!. When you hear the same name(s) coming up, you have a good pick!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

chill out, all dentists have been through like 8 years of training and they wouldnt have gotten hired if they werent skilled!. dentists are very skilled!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Does the dentist have a dental license!? Is the license valid!?Www@Answer-Health@Com

I guess you think most dentists are just faking it!? If they say they are a dentist, then they are qualified!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
