How to Treat the Patients

  After I graduated and before I started my first job my first employer my father  Fred Pomeroy DDS had a heart to heart talk with me.  He told me it was very important not to hurt the patient physically or mentally.  I was to look at the big picture.  If I was gentle in the cleaning process they would not fear coming back in six months.  If  I didn't belittle or send them on a guilt trip about their oral hygiene  they would happy to come back.  What I had to remember that every patient I see is motivated or they would not have made the appointment.
