Whether you have an oral health issue that needs to be addressed or you are considering a cosmetic treatment to enhance your smile, one of the most critical components of your care happens before you even sit in the dental chair for your treatment: the consultation.
At Gentle Dental Care in Menomonie and Durand, Wisconsin, we strongly believe in the importance of dental consults for helping you achieve the best results and satisfaction from your dental care experience.
Dental consults:
As an example, consider someone who needs to replace a tooth that has been lost. There are many different tooth replacement options to consider, and the consultation is an important step in helping both our dentist and the patient determine which option is best for the patient’s needs. While a dental implant might be one patient’s ideal tooth replacement option, a dental bridge might be the best choice for another person because they have the insufficient bone structure to support an implant and are looking for a more economical option. We can sort through all of these considerations during a dental consult and more!
At Gentle Dental Care, we believe that no two patients are identical, so their treatment shouldn’t be the same either! We provide personalized care based on your unique needs and preferences, and dental consultations give us the time needed to learn about you and talk with you about your options. To schedule your consultation at our Menomonie office, call (715) 600-9004, and our Durand office can be reached at (715) 230-3838.
