Diploma on the wall.?
A phone call to the Dental Association will tell you a lot too.
Takes no skill to pull teeth...but a lot to do cosmetic work and root canals. Finding a dentist you feel comfortable with is a challenge...been there myself.

ERICA,
Let me give you the answer from an actual dentist.
To find out whether or not a dentist happens to actually be "a good one
is to ask other professionals you know which dentist they know and which one they would choose themselves.
To be a dentist in the first place requires much education and training.
So then, what does it take to be a good dentist.?
1.a degree from a dental school. (this requires much effort)
2. a license from the State to practice dentistry and
3. a fiduciary attitude toward your patients and their dentistry
Point #3 is the most important and the one that separates a "good dentist" from a "bad one."Health Question & Answer

I don't think its their skill level which really makes a difference, because they've been to the same amount of school. A good dentist, will have good people skills, be kind, and sincere. Some dentists have M.D as well as a D.M.D, generally oral surgeons but they will have more insight into general ansethia and such.Health Question & Answer
You have asked a good question. The specialists in town have a good bead on the skill of dentists. Ask a periodontist or an orthodontist or oral surgeon for the names of some general practioners. When you hear the same name(s) coming up, you have a good pick.Health Question & Answer
