The Patient: “What did the dentist just tell me?”
The Dentist: “How do I simplify this for a patient?”
The Primary Care Doctor: “Yeah, they didn’t teach any mouth stuff in med school.”
In the fast moving world of medicine and dentistry, it can be very difficult for patients to get the explanations they need in the brief moments they get to actually see their doctor. And it can be just as tough for a doctor to quickly relay the proper information in the limited time they have to spend with patients in this healthcare era.
My goal and my challenge: Simple explanations of dental information in 5 minutes or less.
This site is by no means here to give medical or dental advice! It is merely a way to get quick digestible nuggets of information about some topics that can be used to assist in a conversation between dentist and patient. Every human and every situation is different, so PLEASE, PLEASE, discuss your particular situation with you medical/dental team. We don’t want to be just another Dr. Google!!
