Guidelines for Practice Success | Managing Patients | Treatment Recommendations

You are partners with the patient in their post-treatment care. It’s important for you to make sure that the patient understands their role and responsibilities following each appointment.

It may be necessary to provide patients with written post-procedure instructions following certain treatments.

Patients who have had extensive work done appreciate a follow-up phone call from their dentist to find out how they’re feeling and to answer any questions.
