How do you know when a case is done and when you need a Refinement? What will you do if one tooth didn’t quite rotate? Or if there are a couple open contacts? What if they are hitting hard in one spot? There are many times that simple fixes can save you from ordering additional aligners and dragging on treatment.
There are a myriad of concerns patients may have during an iTero presentation. Some they may tell you about directly and some you may have to infer. How you reply to their concerns is key to building patient confidence in their treatment plan.
The iTero is a powerful tool to help a dental office communicate with the patient. “Seeing is Believing” but most patients don’t have a good understanding of what they are seeing. An effective presentation is necessary to communicate the problems identified as well as the value of the proposed treatment. This course will teach you a simple method of meeting the patient where they are, showing them only the most important information, and increasing patient acceptance of Invisalign treatment. Staff training will be reviewed so that all clinical staff can present in the same way. All attendees will receive Dr. Farahani’s staff training scripts to use or modify.
Present iTero scans to any patient in a systematic way
Ask the right questions to guide the conversation
Create a sense of urgency in the patient to start treatment
Train dental clinical staff to present cases the same way as the doctor
