For some people, hearing the phrase “long-term relationship” immediately triggers their fight or flight response. Fortunately, we’re only talking about your dentist. Developing a relationship with your dentist can not only keep your smile in great shape but help you feel comfortable about dental treatment options and procedures overall. The benefits of a long-term relationship with your family dentist can transcend to a lifetime of care that is there when you need it most.

Perks of Being a Customer

One of the most significant benefits of developing a long-term relationship with a dentist is the perks! Often, the longer you are a patient, the more perks you can receive. A dental provider that values your loyalty will offer discounts, flexible payment options and more. The ease of scheduling an appointment is important and flexibility is vital. Establishing this type of dentist-patient relationship can also keep your valuable smile in excellent condition.

Relationship Goals

If you have been going to the same dentist since you were a child, chances are he or she knows you and your family well. This means when you walk in, the front desk greets you with a smile and knows you by name. The atmosphere is calming, friendly and a reminder of your youth, yet after time it shows how far you’ve grown. Your dentist will likely remember when you lost your first tooth and your favorite childhood sport. The same admiration your dentist values in you as a patient coincides with your oral health. Developing a relationship with a dentist can help make routine dental needs, treatments and procedures much more enjoyable. Whether you need a root canal or routine check-up, you know your dentist is there to help.

Additional Benefits of Developing a Relationship with Your Dentist

Because genetics plays a large role in the development of your teeth your family dentist will have a great history to utilize to anticipate your future dental needs. Often switching from one dentist to the next can leave your oral health up in the air. Not only do you miss out on the ease of a long-term relationship with your dentist, but you can also end up spending more time filling out patient forms, undergoing x-rays and other routine new patient formalities.
