According to a study reviewed in the New York Times, medical doctors interrupt patients describing their symptoms after a mere 18 seconds. Thankfully this situation is much different in a dental office! When you get your checkup and cleaning you have a full hour to talk with your hygienist and dentist in Chesterfield. They can spend much more time than an MD discussing your oral health and understanding your concerns.
