Episode 148 - Dental Exam Tolerance w/ Dr. Kelly McConnell

While nobody really wants to go to the dentist, there's a big difference between a grumbling as you walk in for a cleaning and hiding under the dining room table when the word "fluoride" is uttered. This week, Dr. Kelly McConnell stops by to discuss her research on helping individuals with autism tolerate dental exams, including the do's and do not's of working with dentists and ensuring that the program in the clinic actually results in a successful trip to the dentist's office. 4 out of 5 dentists recommend you listen to this episode (we're guessing).
