Quotes
“There are so many opportunities in the dental office to stop a disease that is taking over”
“With high blood pressure there isn’t any warning signs until you have an event, and then it’s too late”
“If a patient is asking for sedation, changes are they have anxiety”
“Patients who have white coat syndrome are at a higher risk of developing white coat syndrome”
“Our golden key is that Periodontal Disease is linked to Cardiovascular Disease”
“If you save someone's life…that huge... if you save someones tooth… that’s great”
“You are here for your preventative appointment, not your cleaning”
“If it’s just a cleaning you can do it, because I don’t feel comfortable”
“The patient came back, shook my hand, and thanked me for saving his life… he told me he want to the doctor after his appointment, and had 6 stints placed”
