OK, so I'm taking the plunge, and moving dentist. Always used same (Suffolk) dental practice (and only had two dentists at that practice in 50+ years so I figure I'm lucky), but it's where I grew up, and I've always managed to combine visits to dentist with visits to family etc, but I think it's time to move to somewhere closer to what I currently call home (for the last 19 years). In case it's of use, I'm near Skipton North Yorkshire.
Does anyone have any pointers / tips /gotchas / reasons to pick a dentist / signs to avoid a dentist etc. At the moment, it's asking around friends and colleagues. I'm tempted to aim for a practice where there's more than one dentist so there's cover rather than someone who's single-handed. There aren't many NHS dentists around here (and the ones that there are aren't taking on new NHS patients at the moment); I've been on Denplan for a number of years, and don't have to stay with that, but don't mind either NHS or private.
Any thoughts / pointers?
TIA
Allan
