Do your patients thoroughly understand why they need the care you recommend? Do they understand their risks and the benefits of preventative treatment?

In today’s episode of The Double Your Production Podcast, Wendy Briggs and Dr. John Meis are discussing better ways to communicate these risks and benefits to patients to get them more engaged in their oral health.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

How risk assessments help patients better understand oral disease and the health implications of their lifestyles
How a chairside risk assessment process raises the case acceptance rate
How to talk to patients about fluoride when they’re encountering conflicting information in the media
How to open up a conversation with patients about periodontal disease and the oral-systemic link
Why the ideal appointment structure is needed to accommodate patient education

When patients know more, they choose more, and dental professionals can be of greater service each day.

At our upcoming Champions of Dentistry Summit, Wendy Briggs will be talking about this topic in more detail. In-person tickets and virtual tickets to the conference are still available. Save your seat here: https://www.theteamtraininginstitute.com/summit
