Keep reading to learn about the criteria a quality office will have, as well as the feedback we get from our patients about why they love our practice.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h2>What Should You Look For In a Dentist?<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Training and experience<\/strong> \u2013 If your dentist has pursued continuing education above and beyond the requirements, it\u2019s a sign that they\u2019re committed to constant improvement.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Technology<\/strong> \u2013 Dentistry has come a long way in the last few decades! Be sure you\u2019re getting the benefit of the great changes that have been made. Digital x-rays, intraoral cameras and advanced tools for oral cancer screening are all examples of what you should look for.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Friendly staff<\/strong> \u2013 Of course, you won\u2019t only be working with the dentist themselves. Is the front office staff friendly? How will billing be handled? And is there an experienced, gentle hygienist on board?<\/li>\n<li><strong>Emergency care<\/strong> \u2013 If you have an emergency outside of regular office hours, can you get in touch with them?<\/li>\n<li><strong>Cleanliness <\/strong>\u2013 This starts when you walk in the door \u2013 are the waiting area and bathrooms clean? Does the staff wash or disinfect their hands before seeing you? If so, these are all good signs that cleanliness is a priority.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Professional membership<\/strong> \u2013 Involvement with professional memberships is an indicator that your dentist stays abreast of new techniques and practices.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Awards and Reviews <\/strong>\u2013 If your dentist has won awards and received positive reviews from the community, they have a proven track record of success!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>What Does Galleria Dentistry Offer?<\/h2>\n<p>Galleria Dentistry is truly a family practice, as Dr. Gery Benza has recently welcomed his son and daughter-in-law to join the office and carry on the relationship he\u2019s established with the community over many years.<\/p>\n<p>Together, the three of them meet all of the above criteria for an exceptional family dentist in Naples.
