How Far Would You Drive to See a Dentist?

Through the years, we’ve seen many patients travel in from all around New Hampshire and the North Shore specifically seeking out Dr. Paul Mathew for his skill in cosmetic dentistry and sedation dentistry. He’s not alone in this. In fact, you may even know someone who travels to another state just to visit their childhood dentist while visiting family. A skilled and trustworthy dentist can take a lot of work to find and when you do find one you’re willing to go the extra mile to see them.

Some people travel even further to see a dentist, going beyond New Hampshire looking for dental implants and cosmetic dentistry. But their motivation is not seeking out someone with a stellar reputation, but rather to save some money on a dental procedure. It’s not unheard of for people to go to another country looking for cheap dental implants. Some of them get lucky and find a good dentist, while others end up with lifelong complications as a result of shoddy dental work. With the risk of these dental complications you have to ask yourself is saving that money actually worth it for something so important.

If you’re looking for a cosmetic dentist in New Hampshire it’s probably worth considering reputation before price. Does the dentist have good reviews? Does the dentist have a gallery of before and after pictures of their dental patients? The price might seem high with sticker shock, but with good, interest-free dental financing you might find the price is worth every penny.

Traveling far to see a dentist can be a good idea, but you have to ask yourself if the motivation is cost of treatment or the reputation of the dentist.
