I’m not so sure. For me a reliable way to find a “good” dentist is to find one that’s attached to a (big) medical school or university. Of course this is easier to do in cities than in rural areas though. I’d always take a waiting list and, say, a dentist from the UC system than one that’s a regular practice.
