Dr. LaRee Johnson is an accomplished pediatric dentist, speaker, and private practice owner from Raleigh, North Carolina. She is very active on the ABPD, and keeps a busy schedule with professional lectures, speaking events, and running ultra marathons. Dr. Johnson joins us on the podcast to tell us a bit about her busy private practice, along with answering some listener Q&A's. Some of the topics we discuss: - Should parents be allowed back during procedures? - Tips on talking to the parent when he/she is surrounded by their own crying kids - How do you handle parents that expect treatment be done the same day as the consultation - What do you say to a parent who denies x-rays? - How do you handle GA/sedations where you find more work then originally anticipated on the treatment plan?
