At a time when many practitioners are considering making the move towards private dentistry, one of the areas that may cause difficulties is explaining the treatment plan effectively and efficiently to patients.

First Media Dental has a powerful, workable solution with the CameRom Patient Information System and Practice Marketing Solution. The X-ray library can help inform patients of their own dental conditions by showing comparative annotated radiographs. For example, the annotated periodontal X-rays clearly show your patients healthy bone levels and actual reduced bone levels, sharply and clearly enabling you to explain treatment plans to your patients that may otherwise be difficult for them to comprehend.

The CD is operated through your computer and is a chairside treatment demonstration system that shows actual cases, close up, rather than animated illustrations. You can talk your patients through a range of 28 video real-life treatments, such as tooth whitening, composite fillings, veneers, crowns etc, whilst they are in the chair, allowing patients to make an informed choice of the treatment options available. You may choose to print off the selected photograph and keep it in the patient's notes for more accurate record keeping.
