Try a referral service to find a good dentist

Michael Ayzin, DDS answers: How do I find the best cosmetic dentist?

I am tempted to pick someone who takes my insurance plan.  Are there better ways to find someone good at cosmetic dentistry vs. general dental work?

There are many referral services, which are useful. Some are new, especially on the Internet. Some have been around for years.

1-800-Dentist is one of the older and more reputable ones. Dentists are inline for month/years to get into this referral service.

Some referral services screen the dentists they recommend; some just collect money from the dentists to be a member. Like anything, one needs to be responsible for oneself to verify info.

The best way to find the dentist, I feel, is to ask your friends what dentist they are seeing, and would they recommend him/her.
