Dos and don'ts for communication: Become fluent in body language
Social media, online shopping, and many other aspects of modern life have greatly reduced the amount of actual face-to-face contact between people. What someone is thinking or feeling is often communicated not in words but in body language. Your work as a dentist puts you in direct personal contact with patients, so you should learn to read what their bodies are telling you, notes Dr. Roger P. Levin.

Levin.

Dos and don'ts for patient satisfaction: Ask for patient feedback
You may think you already know how patients feel about your practice and that, if they have something on their minds, they'll tell you. But the only real way to find out what patients think is to ask them -- in conversation or with a simple questionnaire, according to Dr. Roger P. Levin.
