Hedgy Visits the Dentist is a colourful children’s picture book designed to encourage children to visit the dentist, ease any worries or anxiety they may have and help to make their first dental experience a positive one. It also supports children with additional needs and those with social or sensory differences, including those who are neurodivergent.
