Brief

For a child going to the dentist's clinic is straight out of a horror movie. The first weird smell that hits you when you enter, the chair too big for the child, Doctors and their scary tools and needies zooming into your face, the light big and bright blazing their eyes. The pain, the smell, the sound, the light, sitting still on the chair as the fear builds.

"Sometimes care looks like healing. Sometimes it looks like distraction when you need it most."
