WHAT WE ARE ABOUT AT PLYMOUTH DENTAL CARE. . . . . . . . . .
We recognize that there are a number of things that are important to you beyond the technical excellence that we can provide for you and therefore we will always:
Focus on you
You will have our undivided attention both on you as a person and on your dental health. That is why you came to us.
Review your options
We offer information to you in a way that you can understand so that you can make an informed choice about the best course of treatment.
Discuss your treatment
Review with you your understanding of specific procedures, and we make sure that you have an opportunity to have any and all of your questions and concerns addressed before we get started at each visit.
Determine fees for procedures and create financial arrangements
We offer you a clear understanding of the fees for our care, skill and judgment, and work with you to create agreements regarding how and when the fees will be paid.
Respect your time
We are prepared for you at the agreed time of your appointment and for the amount of time that we had planned on. We inform you of changes, especially if those changes will affect your schedule. We help you understand how many visits you should expect for your treatment.
Provide you with an advocate
Let you know who in our office can support you if you have any questions or concerns. Tell you who you can count on to coordinate referrals, give you directions to the specialist, or simply sit and listen if you need to process. Give you permission to ask for clarity whenever you may need it.
Keep you comfortable
Ask you how you are feeling and really listen to your answers. Offer you a warm towel, something to drink, or a blanket to let you know that we care about the “little extras”.
Celebrate our success
Let you know when we think what we are doing together is working. Tell you when we feel good about your progress and help you believe that we enjoy being your partner in health.
Accept you where you are today
We remember that you came to us so that we could explore what is possible for your oral health. You may not know what optimal can be, and hopefully you will trust us to help guide you in the right direction.
Know that you are here to help
We remember that you are here to provide whatever information we may need that can assist us in caring for you in the best possible way.
