Knowledge is everything and understanding where a person comes from, spiritually, culturally, and ethnically will allow for better dialogue, dental professional- patient relationships, and patient compliance in our practices. Without understanding a person fully we cannot properly treat them as the person they truly are. Each person comes with a different story, culture, religious beliefs and background. It is vital in patient centered treatment to be aware of this crucial part of our individual patient’s life to better accommodate them and their treatment plans.
