Your teeth are important, both to your appearance and to your oral health. So it’s important when looking for a dentist to know that you’ll be receiving timely, quality care. But how can you tell which practice is the best for you?
That’s a question that Dr. Hiral Patel and our expert team at SolidSMILES Dental in Lewisville, Texas, take very seriously — and our practice reflects the services and standard of quality that patients indicate they’re looking for. Here’s how you can tell we’re the best dental practice in Lewisville and worthy of your patronage.
Most people want a dental practice that’s patient-focused. They want to feel valued both as a person and a patient, rather than just being treated as another mouth in the chair.
A recent report found that the top factors patients look for in a new dental practice are the dentist’s competence, a personal recommendation from someone they know, and the overall quality of service provided. They also value interpersonal factors such as patience and respect.
As soon as you enter our office, you’re greeted by the receptionist and sit in an open, airy, and welcoming waiting room. Patients who’ve been coming to our office for a while can expect inquiries about family members or answers to questions they brought up at their last visit. And everyone receives a smile from the staff.
This kind of welcoming atmosphere encourages return visits and good recommendations to our patients’ friends and acquaintances. You can see some great comments in the patient reviews section of our website.
Patients trust their dentist with their oral health, so they should feel confident that team members are invested in keeping the practice clean and hygienic.
You won’t find threadbare carpeting or old furniture with coffee stains. From our spotless waiting room to our state-of-the-art dental suites, we ensure that our entire operation is as clean and functional as any modern dental office should be.
Gone are the days when you might need to see multiple specialists to address various dental problems. Dr. Patel offers a wide range of standard and advanced treatment options, including dental implants, Invisalign® clear aligners, periodontal treatment, emergency dental services, and teeth whitening, among many others.
Essentially, SolidSMILES Dental is a one-stop shop for all your oral health needs — from general, preventive, and emergency dental care to cosmetic and restorative treatments.
About one in three people in the United States have a fear of dental treatment, with 12% having an extreme fear. That means a lot of people either don’t get timely treatment, or they don’t get treatment at all, even when they’re experiencing dental pain or another serious oral health concern.
Fortunately, Dr. Patel and our team offer sedation dentistry. Whether you need light oral sedation, nitrous oxide (laughing gas), or intravenous (IV) sedation, we can ensure you remain calm and comfortable throughout your appointment.
Dentistry isn’t a one-way service. We believe the dentist, dental team, and patient go through the journey together. That’s why we listen seriously to our patients when they have questions or concerns about their treatment, and we make necessary adjustments where appropriate. This extends to financing options to help with the cost of care.
If you feel that something’s not right, speak up! Feedback is what allows us to make our practice even better.
