Establishing behaviour change in our patients
This webinar will help the audience encourage behaviour change in their patients with the aim to coach patients on achieving optimal oral health.
Watching this webinar will help the audience to understand different behaviour change models, establish what stage their patients fall into each model and use this knowledge to ensure the OHI that is given has an increased chance of eliciting behaviour change.
