Effective Periodontal Therapies, Part I: The Successful Patient
Periodontics
Spear library
Video course
About this course
Most perio patients have no symptoms, which makes it hard for them to take a diagnosis seriously, and many have picked up outdated or conflicting information along the way. In Part I of this series, Dr. Mike McDevitt focuses on the conversation: how to move a patient from simple compliance to real collaboration, why outcomes are the goal, how a patient's past successes can guide you, and how affirmative inquiry opens people up to new information.
What you'll learn
- Talk with patients who are just learning their periodontal health is compromised
- Shift the relationship from compliance to collaboration
- Use adult learning and motivation principles in the chair
- Apply affirmative inquiry to open patients up to treatment
