Ep #52: Facilitating Patient Care with Janis du Pratte

Imagine your patients willingly helped you design their treatment
plans, rather than dragging their feet (or not showing up at all)
as you try to improve their dental health. There really are ways
to get patients excited about following through with their
treatment, and today's guest is eager to share how you can bring
this patient commitment to your practice. 


Janis du Pratte illuminates the differences between the
expert and facilitation models in dentistry. While the expert
model is what many dentists practice -- telling their patients
what they should do -- Janis advocates for the role of
a facilitator in the office who can tap into the values
and desires of patients. By doing this, you can finally
patients from mere compliance with your advice to
making a commitment to overall better dental health.
