How would one go about finding a dentist that can help with dental problems as well as fixiing the ecayed teeth ?

Personal referral: Best to ask friends/neighbors/co-workers who they like and why. After that, you may wish to visit the office website and call the office to see the phone manners. This gives a lot of information to see if it is the right office for you. Be careful of selecting a dentist based on an advertisement and low price.

Dental society: Contact your state or local dental society. They often have referral lists and can aid in helping you get the care you seek. If you live close to a dental college you may be a candidate for their clinic(s). Also many hospitals have or used to have out-patient dental clinics; budget cuts may have eliminated some of them.

It's not as easy: Finding a dentist is serious business. Once you narrow down your choices, set up an introductory phone call with any dentist you're considering. The type of dentist best for you is dependent on your own needs, but good chances are you can figure out if you'll enjoy how a dentist works after a quick conversation. Good luck.

Difficult Choice: Choosing any healthcare provider is a difficult decision.... you're entrusting your well-being with that person. Ask your friends, co-workers, neighbors, or family for a personal recommendation. Once you have a few names, a call to the office and possibly a consultation will give you a feeling if that doctor is right for you. All the best...

Ask everyone: Talk to your friends about their dentist; you can also ask co workers who they see. If you see someone with nice teeth, you could tell them you like their teeth and ask them who their dentist is and if they recommend them. You can also contact your state and local dental societies ask for advice and recommendations on who you could see.

All: All General/Family/Cosmetic Dentist's correct dental problems and restore decayed (infected) teeth. Ask your friends, coworkers, your Physician, your local Dental Society, to recommend qualified Dentist to help you begin the repair process.
