title: Patient-driven care presentation.
abstract: In the new age of elective dentistry, dental practitioners should give patients a choice. By being able to make decisions and take the lead in their dental treatment, patients will become more enthusiastic about dentistry. That enthusiasm will make them more willing to consider the variety of dental services today's dentistry has to offer.
