A reminder for all of us: "Progress is not only about completing treatment, sometimes sitting comfortably on the chair is already a huge win"

In this episode of Adapting Together Podcast, we sat down with Dr. Elaine Goh, a dentist and certified clinical hypnotherapist, to talk about how slowing down, building trust, and creating a safe environment can transform dental visits for children on the spectrum.

We discussed:
🦷 How to prepare autistic children for dental visits
🦷 Reducing anxiety during appointments
🦷 The importance of early exposure and desensitization
🦷 What parents can do before, during, and after visits
🦷 Building trust instead of forcing compliance

This episode is filled with practical strategies and heartfelt insights for families navigating dental care with autistic children. Whether you are a parent, caregiver, therapist, or educator, we hope this episode gives you practical ideas and reassurance that dental visits can become a safer and more positive experience over time.
