In this episode of Straight Up With Steph, I’m joined by An Chih to dive into the world of pediatric hygiene.

Together, we take a candid look at the joys, challenges, and special skills needed to successfully care for kids. An Chih also shares her unique journey into pediatric dentistry, describes what a typical day looks like in a pediatric office, and clears up misconceptions about what working with kids truly involves. An Chih also offers advice for hygienists thinking about moving into pediatrics and shares practical tips for building rapport and trust with young patients.
