Balanced You Conversations is a series of talks about important topics related to overall health and well-being.

Karla Clark, Employee Health & Wellness Project/Program Manager III with the Balanced You team, sits down with Danielle Smith, Senior Client Manager for Delta Dental of Washington. They discuss why having a dentist is important, what dental insurance covers, and what to do if you’re feeling worried because you haven’t seen a dentist in a while.

“Many people feel hesitant. What I’d say is just start with a conversation. Dentists are trained to work with patients who are nervous and many offer gentle techniques or additional sedation to help overcome those fears,” says Danielle Smith.
