Choosing a Dentist That Observes All of the Public Safety Requirements

When you live in the western suburbs of Chicagoland you have many choices between dentists.  It might behoove you to do a little research before going back to that old dentist or when choosing a new one for your family.  Finding the right dentist is like finding any other doctor.  They have to meet the criteria that you expect since your family’s dental health is at stake.

Does your dentist continuously maintain its OSHA and HIPPA compliant status?  I’ll bet you never thought about this issue, but it is important.  Just Google those two acronyms and see for yourself.  Ask plenty of questions to discover what procedures your dentist offers and what precautions are being taken to protect their patients.  Are the technicians CPR certified and does the office use digital x-rays to limit radiation exposure?

All of these safety standards and much more apply to the office of Dr. David Blackman DDS of Carol Stream IL.  If you are looking for the right dentist that you can trust for years to come call Dr. Blackman’s office at (630) 260-1700.  Or stop in at 400 North Gary Avenue in Carol Stream to make an appointment and ask the questions that you need to know for your family’s long-term dental health.

A New Year’s Resolution for Your Mouth.

I know, nobody wants to think about visits to the dentist ahead of time.  But here is the great news, a large number of people have a fresh new amount of dental insurance for 2016 and it may go to waste just because there are no dental emergencies at this particular time.  You avoid emergencies with your car by having oil changes right?  Why not limit future dental emergencies by seeing your dentist regularly this year?

Preventative dental care is very important no matter what and if you have reloaded your maximum allowable insurance for the New Year then you have simply run out of excuses to make that first 2016 appointment.  I am sure that you would like to avoid a root canal, an extraction, gum disease, etc. if you can.  You may be able to do just that if you visit Dr. David Blackman DDS of Carol Stream Illinois early in 2016.

Dental insurance companies love routine cleanings because it means less out of their pocket later as well.  Tie a string around your finger and not around a doorknob.  Make one of your first New Year’s resolutions a phone call to Dr. David Blackman’s office at 400 North Gary Ave. in Carol Stream.  Call today at (630) 260-1700 and visit their website for all of the services that they offer at www.davidblackmandds.com.
