Fear for my daughter after dentist

[Jessicasmummy]

Well I had my daughter at the dentist today and she was curious and put her hand into where everyone spits. Im worried now in case she's caught some disease

Highly unlikely. That is rinsed out between appointments.

Hate to say it, but germs are everywhere. She is more likely to catch something from opening a door.

Fortunately, the human body has millions of years of immune system experience and can fight off a lot of bugs.
