How to Reduce Patient Anxiety and Boost Treatment Acceptance

In this video, we share tips to help dentists reduce patient anxiety around costs and increase treatment acceptance. One way to do this is to set clear expectations by providing patients with the cost of treatment beforehand. Another tip is to have a fixed price for a new patient consultation to avoid surprising them with the cost of X-rays. We also recommend having patients sign a treatment plan with the costs on it before any treatment is done. Additionally, training someone else in the office to discuss costs with the patient can help dentists feel less anxious. By following these tips, you can create a more comfortable environment for patients and increase treatment acceptance.
