About this Talk

Dr. Dent has a unique perspective on oral health challenges as a parent, dentist, clinic owner, and product creator. This Q&A discusses many aspects of daily oral hygiene and dental visits including the importance of oral health on overall health, why he doesn’t sedate his clients, how he accommodates for individuals with sensory needs, suggestions for dental-therapy collaboration, and a unique desensitization kit he has created to help individuals prepare for dental visits.
