SUMMARY:STORYTIME WITH LATIA
DESCRIPTION:Join six-year old Peter as he journeys across town with his family to visit the dentist. \nAn elaborate office\, embellished in a Zoo-like theme\, gives a warm welcoming feeling to all of its pediatric patients. The office’s Dental Hygienist Ms. Stacy guides Peter step-by-step throughout the entire procedure of his dental cleaning\, as she introduces all the fancy tools and equipment that she uses during the treatment. Yummy flavors are always an incentive\, for getting your teeth polished; as the choices are endless. The removal of sugar bugs off of the teeth produce a sparking smile\, while radiographs help to ensure there is no tooth decay\, which may be underlying. Peter learns about taking x-ray pictures and gets a lesson on home care instructions to maintain a healthy dentition. Goody-bags and treasure prizes are such a treat\, making Peter’s trip to the dentist complete.\nA pleasant time with the Hygienist and Dentist\, makes Peter look forward to his next dental visit!
