All it took was 45 minutes. But even after making it better, Miss K and I wasn’t as satisfied. Could you tell what I could have done to make it better?
So with a bit more polishing and recontouring, I managed to satisfy both myself and Miss K. It’s true what they say, dentistry is a whole lot of listening, patience, careful observation and determination to please.
Listening to patients wants and needs goes a long way in getting them to trust your skills and judgement in this job. Though at times it can be stressful and demanding, it can be really satisfying if both you and the patient appreciate the final outcome.
