What to Look for When Choosing a Dentist in Benfleet

Have you just moved into the area? Are you looking for a new dentist?

In this month’s blog we look at the key factors to consider when choosing a new dentist in Benfleet:

1. Location

The location of your dental practice is very important as it will determine the ease with which you will be able to attend for your regular, routine appointments. It is necessary to consider the location in relation to home, work and school. Benfleet Dental Centre is easily accessible by car, rail and bus. Parking is also available close the surgery, helping to make sure your journey to see us is as stress free as possible.

2. Opening hours

At Benfleet Dental Centre we understand that trying to juggle work and home commitments can make it difficult to find a suitable time to attend for dental appointments. We are therefore pleased to be able to offer both evening and weekend appointments to ensure that we can find a time for your appointments that fits with your other commitments. We can also offer longer appointments so the whole family can attend together, ensuring that no-one’s oral health is forgotten.

3. Infection Control

All dental practices are governed in the same way as hospitals by the Care Quality Commission and are bound by the rules of the Health Technical Memorandum 01-05. This provides strict rules and guidance on how all instruments are sterilised in between patients and how surgeries are cleaned to ensure that there is no risk of cross contamination. You can see the results of our latest CQC inspection online.

4. Service

Here at Benfleet Dental Centre we are able to offer a wide range of preventive and cosmetic dentistry including dental implants, teeth straightening and teeth whitening. Whether you are looking to maintain your natural teeth for as long as possible or are looking to improve the health and appearance of your teeth and smile the team at Benfleet Dental Centre will be able to put together a treatment plan to meet your needs.
