Trans-friendly dentist for 18 YO

[Anonymous]

Hi – my teenagers (one trans, one cis) have graduated from their pediatric dentist and we are looking for a new one for them. My own dentist is Mormon and, while he has never mentioned his religious or other beliefs in my years of seeing him (and he’s a terrific dentist), I don’t think it is the right fit for my daughter. I’ve checked Ingersoll, King County trans resource guide and even Yelp but haven’t found any list of recommendations.

I would appreciate your suggestions, especially those in Central and South Seattle.

Also, if you have suggestions about how to ask a new dentist office about this without provoking a purely legal-compliance response, I would love to hear this too! Being in the dental chair is such a vulnerable place – I want my daughter to feel absolutely comfortable and welcome.

Thanks,

Jenny
