What are some Spanish phrases used in a dental office?
I am going on a dental mission trip to Guatemala and want to be able to speak a bit more with the patients there. Things like:
"Does that feel okay?" or "Does that hurt?"
"Open wide please"
"Close together"
Etc, etc. Common phrases you use when you're at the dental office, if you can think of any others.
Thank you in advance!
