You've probably heard of a family dentist, who specializes in the dental health of everyone from young children to older adults. It can be 
difficult to know how to choose a family dentist, especially when there are a variety of offices to choose from in your area. In Nottingham, MD, Dr. Karl Meek is an excellent choice for your family dentist. Here are some things to consider about family dentistry when trying to decide.
Services
Besides regular checkups, what dental services does your family require? Dr. Meek offers a variety of treatments and procedures that have your entire family in mind. We apply sealants and handle dental emergencies and orthodontic treatments that many children and teens need while offering adults oral cancer screenings and restorative procedures to preserve their oral health. We strive to be a one-stop shop for the entire spectrum of your family.
Experience
Just as doctors specialize in certain branches of medicine, like dermatology or podiatry, dentists also have specialties for which they have received additional education and certification. Your Nottingham dentist has studied and continues to receive up-to-date training in several aspects of dentistry for the whole family: sedation dentistry to keep patients of any age calm and comfortable during procedures, cosmetic treatments to improve his adult patients' smiles, and root canal techniques that allow for fewer appointments and complications. A dentist with all these credentials, plus over 25 years experience, is an excellent choice for your family's dental health.

Part of feeling comfortable about a dental appointment is how you feel when you walk into the office. The staff at Dr. Meek's family dentist's office is experienced, warm, capable and willing to answer any questions you may have.
