At Zentist, We Put Our Patients First
What does patient-centered care mean to you?
Patient-centered care has taken a prominent place in dental care. Active dentist-patient partnerships have replaced traditional relationships. Technology has played an important role in redefining this new dentist-patient partnership. Dentists have always been on a mission to provide high quality dental care, but few have invested time and resources in creating long-term partnerships with their patients. Patient-centered care is at the core of what we do at Zentist. To learn more about Zentist’s take on patient-centered dental care, visit our website.

Continuity and Transition of Care
Post-treatment follow-up plays an important role in building a positive relationship with the patients and improving patient satisfaction. Patients perceived dentists as trustworthy, caring and supportive, who followed up regularly to see how patients were doing after the procedure. Patients will want to come back to see their dentists. Zentist works closely with dentists to ensure patients are not neglected after the completion of treatment.
