Shownotes Transcript

Ok the title might be a bit click-baitey, but today we are talking all things IV sedation. Dr. Casey Rhoads is a pediatric dentist and owner of Honey Bee Pediatric Dental Co. with two practices in the Kansas City area. Her and her fellow practice partner, Dr. Rebecca Ferns, do 6-7 days of in-office IV sedation cases (open airway) per month. She shares her practice journey with us and how they have structured sedations in their busy new practice. We talk about what verbiage to use, treatment plan presentation, and things to say/not say when trying educate nervous parents who might be hesitant about sedating their child for dental care.
