In this week's Dental Handoff, Dr. Kelly is joined by Erika Flateau, RDH!

Erika Flateau, RDH has been a full-time clinical dental hygienist for 20 years.  In this time, she has developed an approach to hygiene care that is relational-based and revolutionary.  She is regarded by dentists as having an unparalleled ability to connect with and engage patients as they discover their pathway to optimal health.  She is effective at confidently educating others in “coaching them up” to a greatest potential!

In this episode, Dr. Kelly and Erika discuss:

- How dental hygiene found Erika after she originally wanted to be a teacher

- Erika's technique that she uses to build trust with new patient

- Her advice to listeners who long to feel rewarded by their profession 

- The value of having the dentist come in to evaluate the findings of the hygnienist 

- Why you need to remember that you’re never going to get the same patient twice

- How to explain new findings to longer term patient 

- and much more!
