Publisher Description:

Ira is nervous about her dentist visit

She's never had a filling before. When Ira meets Zack, a talking caterpillar, in the dentist's waiting room, Zack knows just how to make her feel better. Zack will explain that the dentist's tools are simple, harmless objects used in everyday life. Through their imagination, Ira will learn to understand the nature and importance of getting a filling.


Contributor Bio(s): O'Neill, Kelly: - Kelly O'Neill loves to tell stories through cute, fun, and whimsical imagery. She earned a BFA in illustration from Syracuse University in 2017, and currently resides in Philadelphia, PA, where she works creating illustrations for children's books.Ujaoney, Shweta: - Dr. Shweta Ujaoney is a dentist who is passionate about working with kids and giving them a better dental experience. Through her practice, she has found that kids not only love to learn about the dental gadgets, but also love to be active participants in dental treatment. She has extensively researched the various reasons for dental fear and anxiety in children and published scientific papers. She is also the inventor of the "Camouflage syringe," which helps mask the sharp anesthetic needle. Dr. Ujaoney believes that kids try to make sense of the world through their own imaginative eyes. One bad experience, stories from friends, or sheer fear of the unknown can make a child wary of visiting the dentist. This book is an effort to make children's and parents' experiences at their dentists' offices simple, more familiar, and fun- filled. Currently, Dr. Ujaoney works at a private dental practice and teaches at Virginia Commonwealth University's School of Dentistry in Richmond, VA. She is the mother of a six-year-old girl, and they have experienced firsthand the anxiety that can develop before dental procedures.
