Digital Photos for Patient Education

Naren: Of all the things you could do to have a patient express greater interest in their mouth, these digital photos for patient education would be my number one choice. The hygienist starts that part of the appointment by doing an IPE initial parrot exam,. She probes six points on every tooth and records those pocket depths and leading points as part of the digital record. And then we finish with step seven, financial arrangements and schedule. So it's an appointment that will be two hours in length total in the office of which 30 minutes is doctor time.
