We were so excited to welcome Pogie the Yogie to First Choice Dental! 🦷✨

In Pogie’s newest episode, he visits the dentist to learn about keeping “sugar bugs” at bay and how dental teams work together with patients to keep smiles healthy. It’s a fun and reassuring way for kids (and parents!) to see what happens during a dental visit and feel more comfortable before their own appointment.

A big thank you to Dr. Gundersen, Miranda, and Suzanne for helping guide Pogie through his visit and showing how we partner with our patients to care for healthy smiles.

🎥 Watch the episode here:

We are incredibly grateful for the talented dentists across our clinics who bring skill, compassion, and dedication to their patients and teams each day.

Today and every day, we’re thankful for the dentists who help keep our communities smiling. 💙

Dental assistants play such an important role in the care our patients receive every day. From preparing for procedures and supporting our doctors to helping patients feel comfortable and at ease, their skill, teamwork, and attention to detail make a difference in every appointment.

We are grateful for the dedication, positivity, and care our assistants bring to their teams and to our patients. Thank you for everything you do to help create healthy, confident smiles & wonderful experiences for our patients!
