Dental visits are essential to maintain good oral hygiene and prevent tooth decay and gum disease. Having a dentist who is fluent in more than one language is beneficial for diverse communities and cultures. Finding a Hmong-speaking dentist in St. Paul may seem challenging.
However, our Highgrove Dental Care team can speak Vietnamese and Hmong! Dr. Jadliyn Nyguen Grittner is a native Vietnamese speaker, and our staff members speak Hmong, so we can help you receive the best dental care possible.
As multilingual dental professionals, we are committed to helping you receive the high-quality dental care you deserve. Being fluent in English, Vietnamese, and Hmong allows us to help with the following:
#1 Reduce Dental Fear and Anxiety
Some patients may feel afraid or anxious at dental appointments because they won’t be able to effectively or comfortably communicate with their dentist. Having a multilingual dental team can drastically improve your overall experience at the dental office and make you feel more welcome and understood.
Our vibrant city of St. Paul is highly diverse, and no one should ever feel uncomfortable receiving essential healthcare. St. Paul has one of the largest Hmong communities, and we’re pleased to welcome Hmong speakers to our dental office. If you speak Hmong, we can pair you with a dental hygienist who speaks Hmong, too.
#2 Create a Welcoming and Diverse Environment
Our dental team values and promotes acceptance and diversity. A multilingual dental team helps create a more diverse environment where a broader patient base may feel more encouraged and welcome. Whether you speak Vietnamese or Hmong, our dental team can help you!
#3 Provide a Comfortable Experience
Dental visits can be overwhelming or daunting for some patients. Perhaps it’s because of the sights, smells, and sounds of the dental office, or maybe it’s anxiety stemming from an uncomfortable memory of the dentist or even a language barrier. These things can make dental visits feel confusing and uncomfortable. Visiting a multilingual dental team can improve your overall experience so you can receive the essential oral health care you need in the language you feel most comfortable communicating in.
