Looking forward to see the dentist!

One of our patients recommended her friend to bring her 4-year-old to come and seek treatment with Dr Lim.

On her first visit to the dental clinic, the dentist went out to the reception area and asked the child to open her mouth, which the child promptly refused. The dentist told the patient to make an appointment. During the scheduled appointment, the child again refused to open her mouth and the dentist gave up.

When the child came and saw Dr Lim last week, Dr lim started by building a relationship with the child. By the end of that appointment, not only did Dr Lim persuade the child to open her mouth but she also managed to polish the child's teeth. At that visit, the child was found to have 4 cavities.

It was encouraging to note that the patient came back for her restorations four days later. When she arrived, she was happily playing in the office. This time, she even brought her own DVD to watch during her dental treatment. Dr Lim managed to restore two of the cavities and scheduled her to complete the last two cavities.
