Do you ever feel like patients ignore about 95% of what you tell them in the dental chair? You are not alone! Case acceptance in the hygiene department is vital to the well-being of our patients and our practice.

In dentistry, we are typically great at explaining what needs to be done, but rarely touch on the “why” behind the treatment. Join us to learn the top strategies for better communication and case acceptance in the hygiene department.

Learning objectives:

• Explore the difference between communication and education.
• Build confidence when communicating and presenting a hygiene diagnosis and treatment plan.
• Identify how to optimize dentist/dental hygienist communication for increased case acceptance.
• Discover how technology can increase value in your treatment plans.
