Amazing help reducing fears in dental!

Submitted by vrrosenberg on

Recently I was working with a young teen reducing fears about dental care. We took a walk up to the dentistry office at CCTC and asked if we could just see a dental chair. Maegan Rutherford not only took time from her day to show us a chair but also gave us a complete tour of the dental area, explaining in detail everything that happens in each location. She patiently answered multiple questions about what to expect and how things are handled. The time she took and the care she showed helped to decrease anxiety and later on, the same teen was able to handle a routine dental appointment, the first one to be successfully completed in their entire life!
