Patient Education
Dental Patient Education In Atlanta
One of the things that set us apart from any other dentists in Atlanta, Georgia is how we keep our patients educated and informed. We don’t just take care of you; we teach you how to take better care of yourself.
Dr. Ballard and the rest of our staff make it a point to discuss your expectations and our procedures with you. By keeping you informed, we help you stay relaxed as you undergo our procedures, and teach how to maintain your oral health even after we complete your treatments. By taking better care of your teeth on your own, you can prevent dental problems from developing.
Our staff has the experience and skill to handle and educate patients from every age group. We can teach you and your children about the importance of dental hygiene and care to help them develop good habits that will last the rest of their lives. We are always open to answering your questions or clarifying any procedure you may not understand. You can call us on the phone for more information about our procedures, or visit our Contact Us page for other ways to get in touch with us.
To help you and our other patients learn about proper dental care, we compiled some informative articles you can review.
