Choosing a dentist in Armstrong
Picking a dental office is mostly a practical decision. Registration, cost, and how easy the office is to reach. Here is what to check before you book a first appointment.
Check the registration
Dentists in British Columbia have to be registered with the provincial regulator to practice. The regulator publishes a public register, so you can look up a name before you book.
Get the cost in writing
Ask for a written treatment plan that lists each item and its fee. If you have dental insurance, ask the office to send the plan to your insurer first, so you know what is covered before the work goes ahead.
Ask about short notice
Find out how the office handles an urgent problem, what happens outside office hours, and how long a new patient usually waits for a first appointment.
