KY Smiles Episode 5

February is National Children's Dental Health Month.  To celebrate, we will have a special guest on the KY Smiles on Talking FACS podcast each week to discuss issues related to children's dental health.  This week our first guest, Dr. Kelly Dingrando, answers all those questions new parents have about when to take their children to the dentist for the first time, whether or not to use a pacifier or let their baby suck a thumb, and what about tooth brushing?  Join in for a fun discussion to answer all these questions and maybe one or two you didn't even know you had.
