In today’s evolving healthcare landscape, trust is eroding, leaving patients skeptical and searching for more than mere transactions. Dental practice owners have a unique opportunity to rebuild trust by forging authentic partnerships with their patients. Transparency is the cornerstone of trust, with clear communication about procedures, costs, and potential risks forming the basis of these relationships.
Beyond transparency, it’s about viewing patients as long-term partners in their oral health journey.
