THE PLANNING
The doctor analyzes the information gathered at the examination appointment, finding the causes of the problems presented and designing a plan to avoid future problems.
The findings are reviewed with the patient at a subsequent appointment. In a comprehensive manner, the doctor and the patient sit in a quiet place and go over the problems, causes, prevention measures, needed actions and options. This appointment usually takes about an hour.
When needed, a phased treatment plan is discussed in detail.
This is an invaluable educational experience for the patients. It also takes the unknown from the future course of action, when treatment is recommended.
The treatment plan is designed with the help of the VICTOR MANAGE computerized program.
The review of findings is also performed with the help of a computer program, which allows for analysis of similar situations, computer simulations of solutions and educational presentations.
