Dental Talk: How to Manage Children's Behavior With Effective Verbal Skills
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Dental Talk is designed to help the dental practitioner manage the behavior of children. It provides the dentist, hygienist, orthodontist, pedodontist and office staff with verbal skills that prevent behavior problems from occurring and alleviaet those that do. This book presents language strategies and ways of communication with young patients that create a culture of trust, accountability, and cooperation.
There is a simple theme running throughout this book. It is that the dental practitioner's choice of words, style of communication, way of talking to children, profoundly affects their attitudes, behavioral responses, and reactions to the dental experience. How the dental health professional communicates with young patients influences the children's actions as well as the outcomes which follow. By carefully choosing words and a style of speaking, the dental practitioner can help children become more relaxed, cooperative, and supportive of the job they need to do.
Dental Talk teaches a series of verbal skills and language patters that will reduce stress, cut down on negative behaviors from young patients, and enable the dental practitioner to accomplish what needs to be done with a minumum of hassles, frustrations, and power struggles.
