Highchair Dental Care

Newly Erupted · 23 min

Episode Description

Tune in to Dr. Winifred Booker as she gives her twist on how to examine an infant or toddler in the office. As she describes in the inspiring podcast, she once had a shoulder injury which made it challenging to examine a small child in the “lap-to-lap” position. She innovated and created the concept of “Highchair Dental Care”. Here how this method offers many advantages over the traditional methods of examining infants and toddlers.
