What to tell your child

• “BalloonDoc is going to clean your tooth and make it strong again.”

• Let your child know they’ll get to watch their favorite show on Netflix for kids, get a balloon 🎈, choose a toy from the prize machine, and even have some ice cream 🍦 afterward!

• Keep it simple and positive — avoid words like shot, drill, or hurt when explaining the visit. Avoid saying “nothing will hurt,” as it can sometimes make children more worried instead of reassured.
