Helping Vivos Providers Educate Their Patients: The Power of Visual Aids
Effectively educating patients about their treatment options can be complex, but incorporating visual aids into your consultations can make a world of difference. A well-assembled Patient Presentation Kit not only clarifies key points but also helps patients feel more informed and confident in their decisions. Here’s how you can prepare your kit:
- Boba and coffee straws: Use these to demonstrate airway differences. Have patients breathe through a narrow coffee straw to simulate a restricted airway, then compare it to the larger boba straw, illustrating the impact of improved airway space after treatment.
- Craniofacial growth and airway models: These anatomical tools visually explain how Vivos treatments improve airway function and overall health. Show patients the progression of craniofacial development to highlight how treatment can realign growth patterns.
- Anatomical head and tongue models: These are particularly useful for demonstrating how the structure of the mouth and airway affects breathing and overall health, helping patients visualize root causes of their issues.
- Before-and-after case studies and CBCT screenshots: Provide patients with tangible evidence of successful treatments by showing actual case studies and CBCT (Cone Beam CT) imaging. This not only reinforces the potential results but also helps patients communicate the value of treatment to family members.
By equipping your patients with these visual aids and sending them home with materials such as before-and-after photos, business cards, and screenshots of their scans, you reinforce the importance of the treatment and give them something to share with loved ones. This approach helps make the consultation process more interactive and ensures that patients leave feeling more informed and empowered about their treatment journey.
