A Q&A With Tracy Kiaski, RDH
Q. Why did you decide to work in a medical clinic as opposed to a dental setting?
A. My interest was piqued 13 years ago at my daughter’s 1-year-old well visit. Her pediatrician was passionate about promoting oral health to his patients. He knew the importance of preventive dentistry as he saw the devastation of early childhood caries every day. Knowing that his patients visited his office at least once a year—and that most did not have a dental home—he wanted to incorporate a dental hygienist in his medical practice to create an oral health prevention program for his patients.
