Leveraging Orthodontics in Your Practice with Michele Benz

Orthodontics is a dental specialization that puts extra emphasis on the positioning of your teeth and jaw, not just for aesthetics but also for preventing any related long-term dental complications. However, what goes in-between each treatment is different with each patient. It takes more than just a simple consultation to convince a patient that your team can provide the best service over other practices. How do you explain to a patient why they should use your orthodontic services?
