Hygienists often spend more time with patients than the doctor. This often results in the opportunity to establish very strong relationships and be a proactive partner in your patients’ health. While these relationships can support the recommendation of high-level dental care, they can also sometimes hinder recommendations because you may know too much about your patients’ personal affairs.
You will learn:
-
How to focus on the value of your treatment recommendations rather than the cost
-
Three things you must know to increase your confidence in presenting treatment in the operatory
-
When and how to answer your patients’ financial questions and when to refer them to a financial coordinator in your practice
