3 Times You Get Our Round Of Applause

Posted

The last thing you might expect by the time you get your child to our practice for a dental care visit is a round of applause.

While your perspective may feel a bit fraught with worry and upset that things didn’t go more smoothly, remember that our dental team is generally quite impressed! We see parents every day and we know that the struggle is real! So, today, enjoy a quick pat on the back in areas you may not even realize you deserve one!
