Dental Communication American Dental Association

Helps dental practices correspond with ease with existing patients, potential patients, the community, vendors, staff. Includes more than 150 templates that can be used for many methods of communication, including letters, press releases, newsletter items and social media posts. Formerly called TheADA Practical Guide to Dental Letters, this book has been fully revised, reorganized and updated to reflect the situations dental practices may encounter during closures for large-scale catastrophes such as global pandemics. It still contains the professionally written templates that you have come to know and trust, but also contains new communications for important issues such as: The closing and opening of dental practices due to pandemic events; an overview of a practice's infection control protocols and assurance of the measures that have been taken; and welcome back messages so patients know you are open for appointments and ready to help get their oral health back on track. Templates are adaptable for many purposes, including: drafting letters for patients, colleagues, vendors, dental benefit plans and more; creating content for social media and the web; developing and customizing forms for patients in your practice; promoting yourself or your practice in the media; and applying for jobs, fellowships and grants, and other volunteer opportunities. Dental Communication helps practices save time crafting formal messages by providing professional templates that can be used in a variety of situations, from conducting everyday business, to office announcements and special occasion messages. Digital letter templates are included for easy customization and in-office printing.
