The first book written by a patient to help dental professionals create successful case acceptance and build long-term relationships.

By David Clow

 

The first and only book written for dental professionals by a patient, A Few Words from the Chair—A Patient Speaks to Dentists by David Clow offers advice to established and new dentists on how to understand the things patients don’t get to say. Clow examines dentistry from the patient’s angle—the role it needs to play in the big healthcare picture, the fears and issues that keep patients and dentists apart, and some simple ideas dentists can use to bridge the gap between them. A Few Words from the Chair is a practical, timely way for dentists to build relationships, gain greater case acceptance from their patients, and create more fulfilling and lucrative practices.

 

In eight chapters, the author diagnoses the divisions between patients and dentists; describes some essential communication skills and techniques used by the best practitioners; and shows how dental care providers can better empathize with their patients. This guide helps providers create lasting win-win relationships with patients.
