The average dental patient travels about 5-10 miles to see their dentist for treatment, we found in this survey of dentists. Rural patients travel longer distances for dental care than do urban residents, obviously due to the distance from metro areas.
However, some patients keep their dentist even after moving hundreds – sometimes thousands – of miles away. Read that again.
“I’m a specialist," said one periodontist, "so we have quite a few patients from the coast, which is 90 miles away."
Agreed a dental implant dentist, "Many of our patients travel up to 4 hours by car for their treatment." An orthodontist seconded this, saying, "I have had a few patients who have traveled 150 miles one way to come to my office."
"Including the guy who comes from Palm Beach?" asked a New York oral surgeon. "Not enough patients come from far away!" So , maybe advertising in higher income areas outside your immediate zone of influence pays off big.
Maybe it's New York… “I have both an active local clientele and an international clientele,” boasted a prosthodontist from that state.

Dental crowns, Dentures, and dental Bridges Jackson mississippi
Dental Crowns call 601 212 5433 for more information free.
Crowns cover the entire tooth like a cap and are often used to add strength to a tooth that has been damaged due to decay or wear; they are also often used after (root canal) therapy. We offer several types of crowns at our practice:
* All-porcelain crowns, for a completely natural appearance.
* Porcelain on metal crowns, for more strength than all–porcelain.
* All-metal crowns – gold, silver, or titanium – for the strongest crown available.
During your appointment, we can help you decide which type of crown is best for you.
Dentures
Full or partial dentures are available and new advancements have made them more comfortable and easier to wear than ever before. One type of denture that we offer has many small suction cups that gently grip the oral tissue, making a strong bond without causing irritation. Dental implants can also be used to add stability to partial or full dentures.
Dental Bridges
Like dental implants, bridges help fill the spaces left by missing teeth. Bridges include one or more artificial teeth that can be either permanent or removable. A permanent bridge is bonded to surrounding teeth that have been covered with dental crowns. A removable bridge, also called a partial denture, is attached to surrounding teeth using clips.
