DENTAL WIZARD® multimedia patient education software is designed to help you create an even more successful practice by informing and educating your patients.

The 3-D animated tutorials explain dental procedures clearly, consistently, and in nontechnical language to help your patients understand and accept your suggested treatment plan.
These compelling presentations enhance the professionalism of your practice, save you and your staff's time, and standardize the information you want your patients to receive.

WHEN TO USE THE DENTAL WIZARD
•   Prior to a procedure such as a filling or a crown.
•   Anytime a patient is alone in the room, waiting for an X-ray, treatment plan, etc.
•   Anytime a patient asks about a specific procedure.
Note: Always put an entry in the chart, e.g. “Shown Dental Wizard Perio tutorial”, to avoid showing the same tutorial to the same patient on subsequent visits.

EXAMPLES
•   An emergency patient is told he needs a root canal. While you’re entering the treatment plan, ask thepatient, “Do you have any questions about root canals?” or “We have a short tutorial explaining root canaltreatment. Would you like to see it?” If the patient does, show him the Root Canal tutorial. Do the same fo rCrowns, Perio, or any other procedure that was mentioned by the doctor.

•   A new patient’s treatment plan includes periodontal care. Offer to show the Perio tutorial. This can be shown while you’re entering the treatment plan, or when you follow the doctor to the next room before the Treatment Coordinator comes in. Also, all patients receiving prophy care should be shown the Cleaning tutorial.

•   A hygiene patient has incomplete treatment. The hygienist can say, “I notice you haven’t had that crown done on the left side. Do you have any questions? I have something about crowns you may like to see while I’m working.”

SUMMARY

The Dental Wizard is a useful tool for your practice. Many patients may think they know about a specific procedure, but they don’t really understand. Others are afraid to ask.
Use of the Dental Wizard will help patients appreciate the treatment more, as well as to encourage follow-up questions and help insure comprehension.
Watching the Dental Wizard also gives patients something to do while they’re waiting.
Consider showing them the Veneers or Implants tutorials, for future reference.
