The second edition of this popular book will help many practices improve their acceptance of treatment plans! Updated and expanded, the over 200-page "A Consumer's Guide to Dentistry" is an elaborately illustrated "show-and-tell" visual aid. This resource provides practical information about dental health and treatment options. One or more copies placed in your reception room will provide a casual resource for your patients. However, the most significant way to use this book is during the diagnostic appointment. How many times have you stopped while educating a patient to draw a picture, search for a book, or describe verbally some technique or treatment that the patient is considering? Now you can easily find the appropriate information in your Consumer's Guide and educate your patient. Motivated, educated auxiliary persons can and should use this excellent tool to help in the educational process and to improve acceptance of treatment plans.
