Yes, thank you for bringing this theme up. For dentists it’s easy to get too focused on treatments and schedules and forget about the person in the chair. I believe a lot of the fear of dentists could be prevented if dentists were more conscious of their body language.

Hi Joseph, Thank you for your comments. I agree, ultimately our involuntary behavior conveys our true nature … I think authentic behavior is the best rule of thumb:) However in today’s busy times, it’s sometimes easy to forget that practitioners are “on stage” when their patients are in the chair–and this is especially true with new patients. P.S. Your art makes me smile. Ah the memories of the Flintstones!

Great article. It is so revealing of our true nature, what are involuntary behavior conveys. But to be able to control that says to me one of two things. Either you are a great actor or so true to yourself through and through that your inside always agrees with your outside. In either case, you are a person whose perception of the world is wide and deep. And where does it end? I saw an episode of Law and Order where a man was able to read people by deciphering the small muscular contractions of all the facial muscles.
