So often we blame our team members for the practice’s inability to achieve superior case acceptance. I know I did (and occasionally still do — I admit it). The real problem lies within a lack of training and preparation for these types of situations. We, the doctors, have to consider how the technical, medical jargon sounds to our patients. Although we can be blunt and talk about surgeries and grotesque trauma cases over breakfast, the rest of the world does not operate that way, nor does it care to. We have to learn to tone it down and be bilingual when we speak with our teams, so that they will have the technical version andthe sugarcoated version to use with our patients. Only then will patients want to swallow these options and pay for them.

The logic of a dental implant for tooth replacement is obvious and makes converting patients away from a treatment plan of a fixed bridge one of the simpler consultations I conduct. That is, unless the tooth is in the esthetic zone. Consent for a dental implant over a bridge . . . a three- to five-minute discussion. Whether the patient will have a removable temporary or be without a tooth during the 12- to 16-week osseointegration period is the real consultation challenge, and cases are won or lost on the issue of temporization.
