Oggi si va dal dentista

The story does a great job making the dentist seem friendly and reassuring. I wonder what inspired the choice to focus on comfort and education for young readers.

While the story is gentle, some of the illustrations of the dentist's equipment looked a little scary to me. Was that intentional to prepare kids, or could it have backfired?

The depiction of family support makes the lesson feel warm and relatable. I'm curious if this approach was designed to reinforce positive reinforcement at home.
