Excellent clinical skills and state-of-the-art equipment aren’t the only things you want from your dentist. Dentists who can communicate with you are the real prize. We have found that good communication is only possible when patients are willing to share their questions, comments and suggestions and we are ready to listen to them. And it goes both ways: As your dental professionals, we also need to make sure you understand the procedures you undergo and why they are important to your dental health.
