There’s certainly no “good” or “bad” patient (after all, every effort in dental health care shows a sign of determination and strong character). However, you may be wondering what it takes to become successful in those efforts. While the journey toward a healthy smile may at first seem somewhat overwhelming, you will discover that narrowing down the details is often surprisingly simple. We are happy to help you along on this experience in streamlining your knowledge of protecting your oral health with a friendly quiz.
