Understanding Treatment Pricing at My Dentist For Life
Why does dental pricing vary between offices?
Dental pricing varies from one office to another because it depends on the doctor's experience and the level of training they provide. It also depends on the lab they use. If they're using an exclusive lab, their lab fees will obviously be higher.
Other factors include the materials, the cementation, and all the products used to ensure that the restorations we place last for at least 10 years. The quality of materials and the technology used definitely impact the cost of treatment.
How does technology impact dental costs?
Technology advances every year, and I believe in investing in the best technology because it allows us to become better clinicians. We can see more, show more, and provide better service. Dental materials make a significant impact because if we're using the highest level of dental materials, our crowns, work, and fillings will last much longer.
Does specialization and training affect dental pricing?
Absolutely, the specialization and training of a dentist impact pricing because the dentist has invested hundreds of hours in continuing education to learn the best techniques from industry leaders. This training ensures that whatever they do for their patients is done in the most optimal way, resulting in the best outcomes.
What role does staffing and equipment play in dental costs?
Staffing, location, and equipment play significant roles. We believe that technology, such as scanning and cone beam, along with the quality of our team and their training, are crucial. This ensures that not only the doctor but also the team is best serving our patients.
What should patients consider when comparing dental pricing?
When comparing dental pricing, patients should consider the entire office holistically. This includes the doctor's training, the team's training, and their own feelings about how welcome they feel in the office and in the chair. Patients should also inquire about the doctor's training to better serve them. Asking a lot of questions helps patients make informed decisions.
